In a break from daily entries on digital layouts for my challenge (they still go on) I wanted to share these lovely printables from Prima that I can’t stop playing with! They are truly delightful and addictive!

   Godmother card This is a card for my Godmothers birthday next month, it is paired with a gift I seem to have been working on forever and is not finished yet but  I will share when its done. I think they make a lovely pair. 

This is one of the printables from IOD Era collection. I hand water coloured this after it had a digital overlay by Merideth Fenwick at Prima and is in the collaboration kit ‘First Blush’.

It also has a “little Magic’, some wonderful digital elements by Vera Lim at Prima. The initial ‘I’ is also a Prima digital product (Prima overload here right now, so cool!) These alpha letters take the gem centres perfectly!  

Once printed it was inked and mounted on pearl pink & blue card stock. A few flowers, a touch of liquid Pearls, some lovely ribbon I got at The Papercraft company and it was done.   Next up is a journal gift that I just finished. Again using printables but this time, the ‘Sentiments’ collection. 

Butterfly Journal This was was digitally painted (new tricks!) and printed with the white centre panel as was. I then designed the acetate overlay with butterfly and garden PS brushes.

Printed both off and then glossed the butterflies with Glossy Accents. Added some gorgeous tiny gem stones and bound it all together with my Bind-It-All. (Oh more lush ribbons too ) 
 
I really really enjoyed the digital painting :D
  

ButterfliesI have really enjoyed putting these together, some real therapy after a weekend from HELL!

Mother in hospital, burnt my arm, pulled my weak muscle AGIAN, kids on loony pills, Andrew away, phone never stopping ringing and then to cap it all Nicholas was up most of last night with a raging temp. 
 
He has been off nursery today and not a well boy at all. He has not complained once! He has lay on the couch and slept on and off all day. I could have cried from him but was too exhausted and sore. 
 
I missed my friend Alison’s big birthday bash at the weekend too. Not the best of times I assure you. 
 
Tomorrow is a new day, lets hope for better things all round.
 
My angelic poorly child below. 
 
Until later xx
