No Flowers at Lili's Little Fairies and an announcement!

Good Morning to you all my wonderful crafty friends.
I hope you are well and having a good week. Sending hugs to those in need of them.

Right then, today is the start of a new Lili's Little Fairies Challenge.

Our theme this week is 
No Flowers 
And the first of our sponsors this week is Natali from IVA NOVA CHEST with a goodie bag of loveliness

I have coloured a gorgeous image from the LOTV Jack, Patch and Puss Sketch Pad.
These images are fabulous and I think could be used for a both male and females.
I created the sentiment banner using my dienamics fishtail flag by cutting it at both ends and then folding. 


Items Used:
Image - From  Jack, Patch and Puss Sketch Pad coloured with Promarkers
Papers - First Edition Love Letters
Sentiment - Sentiment - Clearly Besotted A little Sentimental 
Memory Box Simple Banner
Dienamics Fishtail Flags Stax
Crafter's Companion Chevron Embossing folder
Stardust Stickles


If you pop over to the Lili's Little Fairies Challenge you will see the wonderful creations made by the rest of the design team.

So onto our big announcement about the challenge:

Times change, and we Fairies are changing with them.  This will be the last ever challenge as Lili's Little Fairies.  No, please, don't be too sad, read on.  

We have had a blast as LLF but it is time for a new start and from next week (5 September), we are becoming Crafty Little Fairies, a new look and a new address to follow soon.


Something else new and, we think, very exciting - we are opening the challenge up to use images other than LOTV.  So, you can still use your Lili's and we would love to see them, but you can also use other images too.  How cool is that?!  I am sure the Fairies will continue to share their love of Lili with you all but this does mean more of you will be able to join in the challenges with us.

So, we hope you are as excited about all this as we are - see you next week for the first ever Crafty Little Fairies Challenge!

And because it is our last LLF challenge, the ladies at Lili of the Valley have offered 
TWO £10 prize vouchers, as a good luck in our new venture
Thank you Anne and LOTV xx
(the winners of these vouchers will be drawn by Random Number Generator)


I would like to enter my card into the following fabulous challenges:

Created with love - Anything Goes
ABC Challenge - No Flowers
Tammy's Scrappin Corner - Anything Goes
Little Red Wagon - Pretty Polka Dots

Thank you so much for taking the time to look at my blog, I really do appreciate it and love to read any comments you may wish to make.
Bye for now
hugs
