New Set available soon

Yesterday I gave my I.T. guy the info on the new set so it should be available in the next few days....
I love it you can make lots of lovely images without using anything from the other sets. I've also given the printer the go ahead for some new paper colours so they should be available to buy fingers crossed by the end of February.
So much going on at the moment I am in the middle of the next set which I hope to have by
May-June, I have been really excited by this set as I have been wanting to produce this one for ages. It will have a book like the other larger sets....I just hope everyone will like it. More info on this when I am a bit further forward with it.
Just a little peak of the new set



Here is another sweet card again using the Fairies and Friends set .......






I will be doing a workshop on February 23rd all day at Lovingly Made in Felbridge using my  new petites fleurs set, please contact them direct on 01342 321766 or by E-mail. if you are interested in coming.

We have been busy booking some shows this year and we will be at the Make It show at Farnborough from 1-3 March.  Hope to see you there please come and say hello.

Enjoy the rest of the weekend.

Its all about Flowers

I will very soon be able to share set no.5 with you its called petites fleurs and is proving to be quite lovely.
Lots of petals and leaves as well as some large letters. The flowers are gorgeous and all the shapes are very
versatile.  The mini sets have really been designed to work in conjuction with all the different sets.
However, I have been playing with the new set for two weeks and have made a real assortment of cards.

I will give you lots of ideas once it is available to buy..    

The cards below are both made using Fairies and Friends set.  Really easy to make. I hope you like them.  










Thanks for looking. Will share some more cards very soon.

Back at last

I apologise for not sharing any cards for so long, but life has been a bit difficult since the middle of October, My father died suddenly and then 4 weeks later my lovely step-dad had a  serious.heart attack, thanks to my sister being there when it all happened he survived and is making good progress.  So I am starting to get back to some normality now.  I hope you all had a happy Christmas and I wish everyone a very happy new year.

Below are some cards which I have made using the Seasonal set along with the Seasonal extras, all these cards can now be adapted to make birthday cards just by changing colours and substituting holly for leaves and flowers and of course the wording.  Sometimes I think it is quite a good idea to leave some cards blank as you can always write a lovely sentiment inside. The Santa belt card can be changed to a different colour
i.e. greens and black and you have a card for those difficult men in your life.  Let me know what you achieve.    











I am working on another mini set at the moment it has lots of new flower and leaf shapes which can be used to make some cute new creatures my favourite is a fairy mouse.  The set should be ready in about 3- 4 weeks.  It will adopt the same format as the Seasonal Extras with the project ideas and designs being with the 3 sheets of shapes.This set can be used as an extra to the other Helidot sets.  
I will be holding a workshop sometime in February at Lovingly Made using the new set. If you are interested  in coming to a workshop with me please contact  Trixie or John on 01342 321 766 or online at www.lovinglymadeltd.co.uk during January..

Below is a little example from the new set..


Thanks for looking

Helidot on You Tube

After many requests last Friday Becky from Hobby Art and myself decided to make a You Tube video featuring a simple demo card from the Helidot`s Seasonal peel off set.
This is a new idea and therefore there are no instructions for this in the booklet.

Well done Becky!!
I hope the link below works!!
Look out for more demos in near the future
