Heart's Quest Fantasy April Challenge & Something Else on Saturday #246 Featuring Lil Gnomie Gnaomi & Gnicholas

Good morning and welcome to my DT post for the Heart's Quest Fantasy Challenge, which I have combined with my usual Something Else on Saturday post. The fantasy focus for the challenge this month is gnomes and with the new release from  Sweet November Stamps of all these cute gnomes, I just had to colour up a scene with them. 

I used two of the new gnomes, Gnaomi and Gnicholas and paired them up with some background digis, which are no longer available as digis, just as clear stamps. Isn't this scene just adorable? The bridge and houses in the background worked so well with the gnomes out on their walk!

Ink 'n; Splatter Inspiration Post

Good afternoon and welcome to my first DT inspiration post for Ink 'n' Splatter this month. This month we are showcasing some of the other gorgeous stamp sets in the store that you might not have seen recently. I have chosen to use the Beary Wishes Pairables stamp set and made this pretty floral Springtime inspired easel card.

I used two of the images and one of the sentiments, which holds the front part of the easel up. I went with a pink, peach and green colour combo and love how pretty these colours look together.
