Elisabeth Bell's Lil' Lil's AND Mary Lou Sweet Tooth Fairy Digi Bells' Blog Hop

To celebrate the two newest additions to Elisabeth Bell's Digital Gallery (here), the Digi Bells Design Team is hosting a blog hop.  I'm thrilled to participate in this hop as a guest designer for the Digi Bells.  Yay!!!

How can you win your own Lil' Lil's OR Mary Lou Sweet Tooth Fairy digi image?  You'll have to hop through and leave comments on EACH blog.  [You can find the full list of 12 blogs at the Digi Bells Design Team blog (here).]  Lynda will pick 2 blogs at random and the winners will be picked from those comments. The hoppers will have until March  30, 2012 at 9 AM to leave comments. The winners will be posted at the Digi Bells' blog on Saturday, March 31, 2012.

Another way to win your choice of one of the new images will be to do the hop, leave comments and then to make a "Flowers" card using ANY Elisabeth Bell image and post it on the Digi Bells' Blog (here).  This will also end on March 30, 2012 at 9 AM Arizona time and the winner will also be posted at the Digi Bells' blog on Saturday, March 31, 2012.

I've used Lil' Lil's on a gatefold card.  Cardstock layered with a piece of Colorbok Thomas Kinkade Painter of Light patterned paper provides a watercolor-look background.  A QuicKutz photo corner and a flower cluster accent the left side of my card while a strip of pearls adorns the right side.  A Hero Arts sentiment lies near my image.

Here's a photo of my completed card front showcasing my use of Elisabeth Bell's Lil' Lil's digi image . . .



Here's a view of the inside . . .



I'm entering this Lil' Lil's card into the following challenges:
One Stitch at a Time "Use a Digi!" (here)
Papertake Weekly "One for the Girls . . . or Mum" (here)
Ladybug Crafts Ink "Anything Goes" (here)

I've placed Mary Lou Sweet Tooth Fairy on an easel card.  A combination of Karen Foster Design's Scissors and Stripes and Tooth Fairy Collage are layered with cardstock.  Letterpress large circles and large scallop circles make shaping my image and matting a breeze.  A bit of Marvy White Liquid Applique over the toothbrush bristles appears as toothpaste.  Just Rite's "Just Keep Calm" set provides appropriate text.  A scissors charm dangles from my flower cluster on the front while buttons tied with twine keep my easel card open.  A bit of lace and Anna Griffin butterflies hide among my mixed flower clusters where pearls act as flower centers.  My Mind's Eye twine is tied to mini clips near my image and sentiment shapes.

This view shows my completed card where I've used Elisabeth Bell's Mary Lou Sweet Tooth Fairy digital image . . .
