New release digis - Lemon Shortbread!

Afternoon all!  Wow how excited am I that our latest batch of digis released yesterday include a couple from the designer Lemon Shortbread!  I love her designs and her character Melody is so pretty!  I couldn't wait to use one, well I want to use lots of the new releases which also include new Hannah Lynn's and Sara Burriers - check them all out HERE

I chose Butterfly Melody and decided to team her up with our delicious new digi papers from the Floral Fantasy range which are available in 12x12, 6x6 and 6x6 monotone.  I chose one of the papers and flipped it and added a new layer then copying the melody digi in JPG format, pasted this on top so its filled in white to colour.  I used a pale colouring of mauve on her with blonde hair adding a little gem and added a sentiment then simply matted onto a base.
My friend Tracy at craft club said she'd decoupage the flowers on these so I gave it a whirl and she was right, they look fab!  I did the ones in top right and the butterflies.



This is another sample using the papers and just a simple printed sentiment I die cut :)


And this is from a couple of weeks back using Lady of the Stars, I (very carefully!) added nail art stars as they're teeny tiny.



And last but by no means least this is Janessa which I made into an easel post it holder.  I have a cousin called Janessa so I got the colour combo from her as green and black are not ones I'd use very often but don't they go together really well?  Its noce to go offroad sometimes and try a new style, technique or colour combo :)





Off to see to my poorly ick lil man now!
