I used:
- 7" x 5" white card stock
- image is LOTV's 'Mix it and make it', coloured with Pro Markers and die cut using a Nesties Labels Eight die then tickled with Glossy Accents on the cherry, egg, bun/muffin tin ... and a little trickle down the bowl as those meece seem to be very messy workers :)
- pink backing card from the snippets folder, both behind the patterned paper and to die cut a doily using Cheery Lynn's 'French Pastry' doily die. I used some of the waxed paper I recently bought online from Joanna Sheen here and the cut card fell out of the die like a dream! Hopefully no more struggling with fancy dies here - it's great stuff
- patterned papers are 'name unknown' from a selection sent to me by the lovely Dee, I added a little striped strip at either side to fit the card and also to make a cleaner line behind the ribbon
- sentiment is also LOTV - one of their 'Recipe' sentiments
- organza ribbon came from my ribbon box, it was wired but that was easy peasy to remove. A little 'spoon' charm (thank you Jules!) was added with iridescent cord, tied into a bow
Hope you had a fabulous day sweet friend!

Stunning card Di, I agree that these meeces are a frightening lot to colour, I have this stamp and the chocolate one and only been brave enough to colour them once or twice lol, Hugs, Amanda x
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet card, and perfect for a baking friend. Loved your CL die. Glad to hear your new waxy paper helped you release from the die. I've had some good word sessions with some of the CL doily dies, which is a shame, cuz they are gorgeous. Perfection on this particular card too. Good for you that you have a savvy shopper as a friend. (Even if she is deadly with that w/pistol. Keep on her good side if you can!). TFS & Hugs
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card Di - you've coloured them beautifully so you need not have worried. I am swooning over your doily die - that's stunning! Congratulations on the JS challenge too - nice to see you being rewarded for such lovely creations Karen x

ReplyDeleteThe doily die is a keeper...so beautiful and delicate. The image is so fabulous...but hard to colour I think! That teensy spoon is fabulous and love how you tied it on...Jules style!
Wonderful card Di!
I love all the elements of this card.I don't do a lot of 'cute', but if I am going to, LOTV would be my first choice. Kate x

Oh forgot to say the perfect layers does require a knife and I use the fiskars finger knife, I am notoriously bad with craft knives and have had quite a few accidents but not with the finger knife, probably cos you can't drop it lol. Hugs, Amanda x
