Getting crafty with NEC Stash

I had a fab day at the NEC on Thursday and managed to get lots of new crafty goodies. Even better was the fact that I had my own personal bag carrier with me (hubby lol!!!!). I have been itching to get crafty with my new items and finally had the chance today when Abbie wanted to do some crafting with me. To help me along the way I followed a couple of sketches.

This card was made using the fabby sketch over at Papertake Weekly, I have mostly followed the sketch apart from slightly moving the sentiment over to the left.



Image - Magnolia (NEC)
Papers - MME Penny Lane (NEC)
Flowers - Wild 0rchid Crafts (sprayed with Glimmer Mist)
Sentiment - craftwork Cards (LORA Crafts)
Gems - Hunkydory Diamond Sparkles (Lora Crafts)
Butterfly - Floristry Warehouse

This card follows a great sketch over on Sweet Sketch Wednesday, this is the first time I have entered one of their challenges and I really enjoyed working with this sketch.



Image - LOTV (NEC)
Papers - MME Penny Lane (NEC)
Flowers - Hero Arts (Simon Says Stamp)
Sentiment - Craftwork Cards (LORA Crafts)
Ribbon - Ribbon Box (NEC)
Brads - Papermania Pearl Brads (LORA Crafts)
Spacers - Hobby House (NEC)
Gems - Hunkydory Diamond Sparkles (LORA Crafts)

This card folllows (or followed I am too late to enter now!!) a sketch over on Totally Papercrafts.



Image - Whiff Of Joy (NEC)
Papers - Wild Rose Studio (LORA Crafts)
Ribbon - Ribbon Box (NEC)
Flowers - Wild Orchid Crafts (Sprayed with Glimmer Mist)
Gems & Pin - Hobby House (NEC)
Butterfly - Floristry Warehouse

I still have loads of stuff that I havent even opened yet, including a few more stamps and lots of bling!!

    Hi Lyndsey. Your cards are all gorgeous. I love that Tilda image - you were lucky to have got it - when I went to the NEC on the Friday they'd sold out - I made up for it with other things though....

    Hi Lyndsey, Really Sorry to hear about your recent health. Just shows you need to take it easy. I just assumed that you were busy and not had much time to do things for other reasons. No need to be sorry. I am glad to hear you are back at home and things are on the mend x
