Now Dont Faint.....

and don't get over excited either..I'm afraid i'm not stopping long...

I just thought i'd stop by to say that Yes i am still alive, and Yes i am still wrapped up in all things ALteReD

BUT...i have created something this is partly cute!!

 I thought i'd share this fathers day card with you as although its kind of a distressed affair, it does contain one of the very delightful and very cute LOTV images

Created using a lotv boy stamp, a woj fence stamp, and a see-d's alpha set, distress inks, bottle tops and old paper pages.

A short and sweet post, from a short but sweet host.. Sorry my cute chums for neglecting you but you must follow your heart sometimes.. and mine right now is full of distress {ink that is}

Very first LOTV card!

After recently getting my very first Lili of the Valley stamps i thought I'd join in with the LOTV challenge {you don't need to use their stamps but i wanted too}

This week there is a recipe:

3 Papers, 2 Stamps, 1 Type of Embellishment

I went for the 3 yummy BG papers {a couple of which i machine stitched the edges}, 2 lotv teds which i coloured with copics and 1 old crimbo candle ornament {which i recycled for the flower and holly leaves}

The sentiment is an acrylic tile matted onto a punched out surround with brads.

...

A quick close up...

Isn't he just darling.. i used picket fence distress stickles on the hat and rock candy DS on the star.

This also ticks the boxes to join in with this weeks Fun with shapes with their theme 'Recycling'
