Season's Greetings

Hey Everyone!!

Thanks to those of you who played in my LFF #44 Latte challenge last week.  I used the word "latte" 10 times in my post.  There were 3 of you who did try to guess so I picked a random winner and it was Kathy!  Thanks again for playing and check back on Friday for another chance for a little something from Lilo. :)
Poppin' in to share a Christmas card where I used Wryn the Royal again.  I saw the newest challenge over at Tiddly Inks and tried my hand at it.  Hope I did Lou's sketch justice...

This is a 4x4 card if you can believe it.  I printed out a couple Wryn the Royal images to this tiny size to use for Madison's gift, but ran out of time to use them.  She was easy to color up pretty quick and I had that paper sitting on my desk, just had to grab the ribbon, twine and gems and put everything together.  I didn't have a small enough sentiment to fit on to the tab that wouldn't be covered by the heart/ribbon so I hand wrote it in.

As you can see I went with a pink and green theme.  Not your typical Christmas colors, but I couldn't resist that small scrap of pink snowflake paper I had from last year.  Doesn't she look fun with pink hair?  Yes, I did add a little bit of sparkle to her dress and crown, after all she is royalty. (hehehe)  She reminds me of an anime character with her pink hair and ball gown.

That's all for today.  Mahalo for stopping by.  I always appreciate the kinds words you leave me, they make me smile.  Hope you all have a lovely day!!
Hugs,
Leanne

A Royal Birthday Card

Hey everyone!

Yesterday I went to my friend's daughter's 4th birthday party.  Boy do they know how to throw a party!!  They always have, it's just their thing.  With lots of kids, a big gigantic castle jumper in the back yard and lots of crafts for everyone, yes even the boys were getting crafty making shields, everyone had a great time.  Madison's birthday theme was Princess and Knights and of course she was her Royal Highness.  When I was thinking about her card I wanted to keep it in the same theme.  I knew the perfect images to use and they were both from Tiddly Inks. 

I used Wryn the Royal which includes the cute sentiment, and Castle in the Clouds which is one of a set of two.  When I pictured how I would put this together I saw the castle in a frame behind her with lots of pink, glitter and hints of lavendar.  The flowers on the bottom are chipboard pieces from the Disney Princess pack I bought a while back from Joann's, they were perfect for some fun accents.

I had a lot of fun with this card and can see myself using this little cutie pie and the castle again and again.  If Christy decides to make her in to rubber I'm gonna grab her up.  (hehe)  Have a great day and Mahalo for stopping by!
Hugs,
