Prince Edward Island - *New* Mo Manning Rubbah Release

I wanted to let you know about another release of Mo Manning rubba now available at Quixotic Paperie. There is a great selection and variety in this new release.....summer, Christmas, vintage and my fav of all is 'Prince Edward Island' and is based on the character Anne of Green Gables, which a child was my favourite ever film.

I must dig them out again and rewatch.I have coloured the image with prisma pencils and gone for some more demure colours.

The papers are from the deliciously vintage Basic Grey 'Capella' 6x6 pad. The brown Prima lace is very vintagey and was just perfect for this card.I also added a Tim Holtz Adage Ticket, along with a kraft flower made with retro flower punches. The edges have been distressed with Tea Dye Distress Ink and then given a good scrunch and finished off with a pearl brad.
Thanks for stopping by!

Wanted to show you this little card using all the fabulous stuff from Quixotic Paperie

I have added quite a few pearls and used my bazzill jewel template and viva decor pearl paint to create the scallop pearl pattern. How adorable is Amy's little Sweet November Baby Tricks or Treats, costumed cutie Dragon stamp? For fun I have created a textured outfit with liquid applique, it's Fabulous to the touch, I hope you can see it in the picture! Probably will try making the spikes a different colour next time!

Quixotic Paperie: More Cheeky Arrivals!

Today saw the slightly belated arrival of some fabulously cheeky ladies from The Greeting Farm!  These ladies have been sitting unloved in customs for longer than they would like, so they are itching to get inky!

I love the feeling that I've actually created something myself as I'm not very artistic at all. As to what keeps me excited? Visiting my favourite craft stores to see and drool over all the new goodies!
