Exciting Design Team News and two cards!

Good Morning Everyone! I have some exciting new for you today! I have joined the Little Miss Muffet Design Team! I am so thrilled to be joining some of my old Pollycraft teamies and the other members of the DT and am looking forward to being able to share the wonderful Little Miss Muffet images with you on my cards. There is a release of new images today so I have been having fun playing with some of the new images. My first card was made using an image designed by Paula Lee which is called 'Snuggly', she is so adorable! I coloured her with my Promarkers to match the Simple Stories papers and then layered the image onto pink card and a kraft die cut. I layered up my papers onto more kraft and pink card and added a sweet little bingo card which is on one of the papers in the pad. The gorgeous ribbon is from The Ribbon Girl and I topped it with a resin flower which is available here. I finished the card with some flowers and stick on pearls.


My second card is a mini card I made using another one of the new release images. This image is called 'Hola Butterfly' and there is a great story behind it. Here is what Barbara had to say about the new image and how it came about:
My daughter was reading Monarch Magic! by Lynn Rosenblatt and in the back had some fundraiser ideas.  Instead of sitting out in 109 degree weather selling cupcakes and lemonade, I suggested we draw images.  Lucky for me she thought that was a great idea!   She has drawn and colored the five stages of the Monarch Butterfly then I added a festive butterfly to join in on the fun - it all comes in a package deal!  During the month of August, for each one sold, we will donate $2.00 to the Monarch Butterfly Fund!  Will you help in her endeavors?  My daughter has even made a card to send them once the fundraiser is complete.  :D


I used Kaisercraft papers for my card and then added a Tina Wenke sentiment as this jolly butterfly makes me feel happy coloured in these bright colours! The lace and button are from The Ribbon Girl. There are 8 new images being released in total. Please check out the Little Miss Muffet blog for all the details, Barbara is also having a sale this weekend!
