I hope you enjoyed looking at Ann's Blog..and now here is my contribution.
I loved every single thing in the Autumn-winter mini catalogue (and bought most of them) but two items I purchased for my own personal pleasure were Pony Party and Tote-ally Tess...
I have three grand daughters and they are mad about My Little Pony, so it was my DUTY to buy this set. I used Melon Mambo card stock with the matching polka dot ribbon. The pony is water coloured, with Dazzling Diamonds added to the tail and mane... I love all the little extras that come with this set...this pony has had wings added
Same pony but no wings this time!! For the background I stamped the tiny flower from Season of Joy and the flower posey is made with the single flower from Eastern Blooms. Pony Party (119179) is going to be a big hit around here for birthday invitations! (I am not selfish two of the grandies have already played with this set and made themselves some colouring pages)
The other set I bought for my own pleasure was Tote-ally Tess....I wanted it to make personalised stationery....But there is so much more to Tess....sure she loves to stamp and scrapbook but she is a party girl at heart.
Here she is on her way to a birthday party! For this one I paper pieced Tess using various designer papers. The added accessories are the balloon from Crazy For Cupcakes and the tiny cake in her hand is from the Short and Sweet set. The sentiment is from Heard From the Heart (119167) I stamped it in Whisper White craft ink but will remember to emboss it next time so it stands out. (I love all the sentiments in this set and it will be well used for sure).

Bev I love your cards. I so love that pony set but afraid my girls are over that now :( I do love Tess tho and can see her being added to my stash very soon! Thanks for participating in the blog hop
ReplyDeletePony Party is a definite favorite in this house with two young daughters mad about My Little Pony too. I have been selfish and have not let them play with it yet - but I will be this weekend. They are gorgeous. Love Tess too.
ReplyDeleteGreat cards!
ReplyDeleteThese are stunning, Bev! I am so glad to have found your blog, I'll be back for sure. Love how you've combined sets to add even more to Tess.
ReplyDeleteYou have been so clever with Tess. I have often seen that balloon incorporated into cards but never the cupcake from short and sweet. Totally Genius :)
ReplyDeleteCute cards - my 2 nieces would absolutely love them!!
ReplyDeleteBev these are great, I always get excited when I visit your blog, your work is amazing. Thanks for sharing your talent with us, Lots of inky hugs from Charmaine :-)
ReplyDeleteJust love your cards, Bev.

gorgeous cards Bev! you've moved these sets closer to the top of my wish list!
ReplyDeleteI love your first pony card - of course it showcases my fav color - but I love how you've put it together.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!
Love the pony cards. I know my daughter would love them too. Louise P
ReplyDeleteThat Pony Party set is sure to please anyone who is into My Little Ponies and I wasn't going to buy the Tote-ally Tess set but seeing your card has given me second thoughts! So glad I am a demonstrator and can get such a good discount as my wishlist keeps growing!
ReplyDeleteWOW, I kept thinking as I have hopped from one blog to the next that each time the party pony featured it looked familiar... and you have solved my memory block....My Little Pony!!! My DD9 has them stashed all over the house. Love, love, love it. Thanks for inspiring. You have been officially favourited into my computer. Enjoy your Easter. Cheers Donna Zammit
ReplyDeleteHey Bev, what great cards for little girls, they are just fantastic. Thanks so much for sharing with us.
ReplyDeleteI resisted both these sets ... just can't have them all! But ... don't know how much longer I can hold out. Isn't it lovely to have a pretty set for those little girls cards!!! Love the colour combos, Bev! Stampin' Hugs, Andrea xxx

ReplyDeleteI totally love your work, You inspire me to spend way too much money
Love the Totally Tess card :)
ReplyDeleteMy daughters would love these cards. One is 7 and the other is 12, so they are both perfect for their age groups. I also like the cards in your other posts. Thank you for sharing all of your wondrful ideas.
ReplyDeleteBev, i absolutely MUST have the Tess set, being the party girl etc! can you send me a autumn catalogue? my SU rep moved back to US and now i have not got one to give all my money too!!! Ta..Tess
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Tess, you've done such a great job! And I love the cupcake in her hand - brilliant. Thanks for the inspiration. :)
ReplyDeleteSuh lovely sets - it's just a shame i have grandsons not grandaughters!
ReplyDeleteVery pink, very cute!
