NEW LOTV vintage boys and cute animals

Hello lovely people,

We have a wonderful treat for you at the end of this week because there are two fantastic sets of new images being released from LOTV on Friday 28th, and I hope you are ready for a whole lot of cuteness!

This time there are 3 cute animal scenes and 4 fab vintage boys and I absolutely adore all of them.

To me, the vintage boys are a real LOTV classic and they are just so good for making masculine cards, so that's what I used for my first project.

One thing I love about these images is the wonderful detail in them and yet they are really easy and fun to colour...just look at this adorable little chap...

I made the little typewriter text strips on my computer and added a sweet little hammer charm, but my favourite detail on this card is the corrugated card because I really like the texture and interest it adds.

This particular bit of card was recycled from some packaging and has a lovely soft colour and texture, so I am sad that I only have a very little of it.

If anyone knows where I can get some corrugated card that looks anything like this (I definitely don't want very rigid corrugation) then do let me know!

I hope everyone's week is going well so far :-)

Thanks for visiting and I really appreciate any comments that you leave,
