Lillybet's Papers

Welcome to this weeks Blog Hop. I hope you find lots of inspiration looking at all the gorgeous cards made by the CTC team using the Thanks section of the catalogue on pages 13-18. Maybe you have arrived here from Helen's Blog, or maybe you are at the beginning. Either way you can keep going around the circle and if you get lost you can find the full list of participants here . Well after my fundraiser on the weekend #creativerelief - raising funds for the Western Qld Drought Appeal- I needed lots of thankyou cards for all the generous people who helped make the day such a success.

It's a great sketch to show off different papers. I have to say I am also really impressed with the new Kraft Cardstock which is a great weight and a beautiful texture.

The little heart is punched form the new glimmer Paper which is also gorgeous. Inside I had a little play with the Photopolymer stamp Bordering Blooms - these could be going to get quite a bit of ink! ...
