Lily of the Valley...

Happy Friday,

Well we have reached the end of my Stamp release days its back to something different tomorrow but I have saved Mrs Ducks favourite flower for last, I just hope I have done it justice!  as you may have guessed form the title and the card this is the Lily of the valley set the flower of may.

To me the background and main image form the elements set just tired out to be stamped then gilded in silver moon gliding flakes, in real life the stamping is in pure reflective silver which really sets the flowers off.  Therefore I ma premiering the spring grail A6 background as well as the Lily of the Valley elements clear stamp set and the lily of the valley sentiments set.



In the main elements set I have drawn a few different spray of the lily of the valley with a set of uplifting sentiments as well as some delicate sentiment which are perfect, again, for smaller and batch cards.  As usual there are all the elements you need to add to the flowers and to make your own backgrounds etc.

The sentiments set is in the everyday mode with a set of 6 everyday use sentiments this time with a circle surrounding them.  I have added stitch detail to the circles as well as a delicate spray of the lily of the valley (which can cover loads of different flower form bluebells to snowdrops) surrounding them 















I really hope you haven't mind me showing you the new releases.  There are background stamps and other rubber stamps to compliment all the ranges and the paper pack which I'm sure will be popping up over the coming days and weeks!

I have the first collection on Hochanda the 7th March with the second instalment later in the month and have loads of demos planned to show you ideas I have for using them.

Enjoy...
