For an Angelic friend

Happy Friday everyone!  Tanya here to share a little inspiration with you on this beautiful Friday morning :)   I wasn't sure what to make for today and then I saw "Lili's prayer" and I knew I had to use her as she has been "praying" for me to ink her up LOL

once I got everything laid out I wanted the perfect sentiment and "For an Angelic friend" seemed absolutely perfect for this card, I don't know why but I thought it was a great fit :)

Now a couple of things before I go for the day:

1.  Don't forget to check out our current challenge over on the challenge blog...the theme this week is "flowers'
2.  Just a reminder that on the 31st the Inky Facebook giveaway is going to start so mark your calendars to join us over in the Inky group then.

Bags and Matching Tags - Lili's Double Pocket gift bag

Hi everyone! It's Sandie here with my last GDT post for Inky Impressions. I have had a blast this past 2months and have loved working with these wonderful stamps again. 

I have used another tutorial on Splitcoaststampers to make my project today - It is a double pocket gift bag, which only uses one 12x12 sheet of heavy paper or cardstock. 

I've chosen to use Lili's Secret and I've coloured her up with copic markers, then trimmed her out and adhered her to the bag using 3D pop dots. 

My papers are from the Dots and Stripes collection by Echo Park. These are double sided and perfect for this type of project. The border, background sticker and tag are also in the pack.

The handles are made from black grosgrain ribbon secured with gold rimmed pearl brads. I've also added some bling in the form of some Prima pearl swirl.

There is plenty of room in both pockets to add some delicious treats and this bag can be adapted to suit any occasion.

I do hope you like my project and you are inspired to be a little bit creative today.

Have Fun!!

Sandie

Altered photo frame

Hi, it's Lora here and today I have an altered photo frame to show you.
The frame was an old plain dark brown wooden one that I got from my MIL. It's quite small which I thought would make it much easier to cover but it has ridges around it which made it a lot more difficult, so I think next time I will stick with a flat frame.

I covered the whole thing with some Laura Ashley paper and used Lili's Prayer which was coloured with Promarkers and a bit of glitter here and there to make her sparkly :)
I added some different flowers from my stash and some flourishes that were cut with a Marianne Designs die, and I also used a couple of clear Inky Dinky Drops from the Inky Impressions store, in amongst my flower arrangement in the top right corner.
you can't see them very well in these pics, but you can in real life and it looks a bit like dew drops :)

You can just about see the 2 Inky Dinky Drops that I used in this pic beside the flourishes. I love these because you can still see the patterned paper underneath them.

Now I just need to find a photo to put in it and it will be complete.

I hope my frame has gave you a little bit of inspiration today. Remember to check back every day for more inspiration from the design team! :)

Lili's Prayer

Good morning!! I wanted to share a project (set) set that I created this week with my Lili's Prayer stamp! I just LOVE this image and she was the perfect choice for the front of my new bible cover...



I just HAD to make a matching bookmark .. I've used a cross charm that is also available from the Inky store... Nicole - Inky's Mama hs such a great variety of charms in store!!

Oh and just a reminder that there's still time for you to enter the flourish and faux challenge!!

Welcome to Your New Home "Inky" card

Oooh, how exciting is this!? The DT post I had been wanting for ages I got!!!  I am so pleased and proud to be part of the new Inky Impressions Design Team.

Their stamps are fabulous.  So deeply etched and ready mounted, they give an absolutely wonderful impression.  I have stamped them onto smooth, textured and even heavy duty watercolour card.  Perfect every time.

Well today I thought I would show you my gorgeous Lili's Prayer stamp.  I wanted to show how it can be used for so many occasions. Here I have used it on a "New Home" card, cut and coloured her with Promarkers and mounted her onto some pretty designer cardstock.  Lili's Prayer is available from the Inky Impressions website.

I have also entered her into the Lollipop Crafts Challenge, as this was "girlie" theme, and I thought my card would be just the ticket!  I do hope you like her.
