DL.ART January Linky Challenge

Happy New Year!! Wow, I can't believe it's 2017!! Goodness, the years just seem to fly by :) A new month means the start of a new month-long linky party at DL.ART. As always, the theme is Anything Goes. If you use the code l01210, Diana will give you 10% off your order at DL.ART.


For my birthday cards, I used papers from Maja Designs.


The front of the card is a cheery Lynn English Tea Party Doily die. The butterfly was made from Memory Box Vivienne and Darla Butterfly dies. The Darla die was covered with Sparkle N Sprinkle Crystal Ice.


The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts. Tucked beneath are Elizabeth Craft Curvy Leaves and Memory Box Chloe Stems. This gorgeous crinkle ribbon is Mint from the 2016 Spring Bundle.


The banner is a Joy Crafts die and the sentiment is from My Creative Time. This beautiful ribbon is Lavender from the 2016 Spring Bundle.


I am entering this in the following challenges:

1) Little Scrap Pieces Show It Off Saturday - Anything Goes


Now it's your turn!! Head on over to DL.ART to see the amazing projects my design team sisters have created for today's challenge!! Then link up your Anything Goes project!! I can't wait to see what you create :)

I'm spending New Year's weekend with family so I will be by to visit you soon!! I miss you all and hope you have a wonderful, safe and happy celebration :)

    I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and Happy New Year! It's been a little stressful with my Dad and now some other things came up to which are heavy on my heart :( Hoping things settle down a bit real soon! Your creations are amazing and always love visiting. It makes me want to stop everything and run in my craft room and create, lol!
    We are expecting 5-8 inches of snow tomorrow so maybe I can hide away in there?!

  29. Gorgeous cards Lisa, wow I love the doily die and your color combo of course. The butterfly is fab. You really rock the ribbon. I wish all good things for you in the new year. I was happy to put the finishing touches on 2016 and I am now looking forward to a redeeming 2017.

  31. Happy New Year, Lisa. Just popped in to enjoy these 2 gorgeously layered and colored cards. I love the CL doily behind the butterfly & florals. This is one that usually cuts quite well (some of those CL doilies are difficult to get a smooth cut, even with the shim!) It looks most elegant behind the elements & I absolutely love these Maja papers. Haven't found any in my travels as yet, but sure looks so pretty with your layers and lovely ribbons. Hope you don't get any of the Arctic Chill that Inkspired to Stamp was mentioning. Take care, and hope 2017 has started off well for you (and that it doesn't speed by as quickly as 2016 did!) Hugs

  45. Gorgeous start to 2017 Lisa! You have put your usual amazingly creative stamp on both! The colours you use are always mouth wateringly fabulous and again both are too difficult to choose from. The layered butterflies, doilies and die cuts are just beautiful. I wish I were able to do 'layers' so well! Have a wonderful day my friend and thank you so much for your continued support throughout a difficult year! It was so appreciated! Let's hope 2017 is good to us all! Hazel xx
