Presenting You... The Forever Young Collection




Happy Wednesday my sweet Blog buddies!!



I'm so hoping you're having a fantabulous week, and that you are ready for a WONDERFUL NEW Belles 'nd Whistles Collection; designed by the one and only.. Elisabeth Bell.



Summer and us, the BnW DT members, want to welcome you to this fun Forever Young Collection Blog Hop. If you just landed on my Blog, I would like to invite you to start the Hop from our official BnW Blog. But if you camse here from Kathrin's Blog, you are on the right track :)

For your eyes' delight, today I'll be presenting you



Little Eden







Isn't she cute?? Oh I fell in love with this image, but if you hop all though the way, you will see LOTS of marvellous new images. I'm sure you will LOVE them all!!

For this special occasion, we also have three Guest Designers joining our fabulous team. I invite you to visit them as well, as I'm sure they have fantastic creations to share with us. Please help me welcome:

Mindy :(http://stampinmindy .blogspot. com/)
Chelsea : http://craftinglife spieces.blogspot .com/) and
Lori : (http://lolo612. blogspot. com/) Go and see what they prepared for us!


Pre-orders for these gorgeous, clear stamps start on Wednesday, today. Orders will ship out on June 22 and June 23. Summer would like you to know that the store will be closed from June 23-July5. No orders will be taken during this time so order before June 22 to have your stamps ship prior to closure. I do so hope you will do so, so that you won't be disappointed.


Participants who leave comments on each blog they visit and then again at the Belles `n Whistles Blog at the end will be entered into a special chance foe some lovely candy. What is that, you ask? One randomly chosen winner will receive a new set of Belles `n Whistles stamps!!! Hurray!!







Now let's talk about my Lttle Eden. First of all I am glad to be presenting this darling image together with my wonderful friend Jacque. She has the same image for you, with a LOVELY creation, and a very beautiful reason to celebrate. I do so hope you leave her some love, together with my other BnW Sisters.



For this card, I used for the very first time some Maja Designa Papers. I am in love.. again!! :) Wow, these papers are so gorgeous!! Thank you Sonja for sending me some papers to try them out! I have a special love for paper, and these don't disappoint at all. I am not a Yellow type of person, but I really loved this design. the pastel blue papers have small yellow daisies on them, while the yellow coordinating paper has some light blue gingham in the background, with light swirls. I left it exposed for you to see, I really didn't want the detail to be beneath the image :)

I embellished with Prima flowers, which I gave some generous Yellow Stickles treatment. Brads are Basic Grey, and the rest is from my stash.


I used Friday Sketchers's sketch for this one, and I'll enter it into some more challenges:

Papertake Weekly: Ice cream flavours.. let's talk banana flavour here!! ;)
A Spoon full of Sugar: A sunshine inspired card
Fab 'n Funky: Summer in colour
Our Creative Corner: Gotcha Cornered




This is how I did my inside. I used rectanglar, long paper doilies, which I cut in half. I think they look cool like that. I added some of the Maja Design paper, ribbon, rhinestones and a Stickled flower. Voila!!





Copics used. The round yellow is Y06.

I hope you like it, and that I will see these gorgeous stamps around.. they are too cute to be missed!! :) Now after you leave your comment, hop on to Kathy's Blog... she has something Wonderful to show you.. so off you go!! And have fun!! Remember to stay Forever Young, will all our Belles 'nd Whistles designs!!!







Love and Blessings

Daisies & gingham - what more could a girl want & the colours are just brilliant, I certainly related to your comments about yellow & had to laugh as I've just used the same colour combo in a bright version. I love your colouring of her, so gentle, amazing with Copics. Lots for me to learn here - thanks. The inside is amazing.
