A big welcome to all of my lovely followers and visitors to my little space in the crafting world of blogland!

I hope you enjoy your little wander through my creative world and would love to feel that I may have inspired some of you in some small way. Happy Crafting to you all and I hope you will stop by again soon!

The Gnomes of Gnarly Wood

UNCONDITIONAL LOVE
I love you ..... Gnome-atter what you do!

Hi everyone - well, the sun is shining brightly today so, not only do we need our sunnies on this beautiful Spring day, you may need them for this super bright post too!

I've been colouring up a storm and have almost used every colour of the rainbow in my little creation for you today, showcasing some of Heather Valentin's fabulous new digi images from her Lacy Sunshine store.


Introducing Lovely Larry and Lexie's Naughty Chair Gnome, nestling amongst their beautiful home in their lovely clearing of Gnarly Wood .... aren't they just the sweetest?  Their fabulous home comes in a digi bit set, which also includes the little toadstools and some flowers.  I decided to merge them all together to create a little scene, added some grass, sky and rocks and voila!!

Well now, Miss Lexie is a very naughty little gnome and, more often than not, you will find her on her chair!  However, Lovely Larry is such a forgiving little dude and can't help but adore Lexie - his love is so unconditional, he's happy to offer her his last sunflower to cheer her up!  In his eyes, she can NEVER be as naughty as all of the other gnomes say she is .... and there are quite a few other gnomes in the Lacy Sunshine store who would strongly disagree with the Lovely Larry!

Of course, I know my little tale is very believable, however, the actual story of  Lexie and her naughty chair is revealed in the fabulous Linda Simpson's post of today, which can be found HERE.  You'll also be able to take a peek at Linda's fabby take on the naughtiest gnome in Gnarly Wood :)

I coloured my little scene up with Copics, but I will spare you all on the colours otherwise the list would probably be longer than this post ......

    Pmsl...brilliant use of images, colouring and post, lol. Giggling away here, though you need to be careful...this Larry/Lexie thing...it's how rumours start! :o)

    Used to have my hair that colour as well...been thinking of going back to it and this might just make me go for it.

    Really do love this...it's loads of fun.

    Tracey, this is just fabulous. I love the depth of color and clean presentation. The viewer is literally drawn into the scene. That takes true talent!
