Masked Tilda Card - Summer Theme

Morning my lovelies,

Here is my masked card for the new challenge at 

The theme is Pink & Green, so nice and easy!

Perfect for a summery card!


I masked Virgo Tilda with the Open Gate Background & coloured it up with Copics & Prisma Pencils.

 As she is a sitting Tilda, I thought that she would be better sitting on the ground with her knees bent, rather than sitting on the gate would have made the image too long. I also stamped some additional grasses around her feet, to try to demonstrate this in the image.

 

The domed paper clip is from Kaiser craft and the little green and pink sweet pea wording is from my own goodies!


The top paper is of course Sofiero by Maja Design and the Pink Twirl and Pin and also the paper are all from Live and Love Crafts.


I have also added lots of lovely die cuts, lace and little distressed cherub too!

Thank you for dropping by today and don't forget to pop over to 
Totally Gorjuss, to enter our challenge and find out last weeks winner.

Have a fab weekend, Take care,

Tilda With Elsie the Lamb Card


Good Morning My Lovelies

My goodness, we have been having sunny day after sunny day here, which believe me is quite unheard of in England, yes, even in summer!!!

As you have probably guessed from the title, here is Tilda with cute Elsie the lamb.


I have coloured her up with distress inks and have created a little outdoor theme, as I have painted a sky and little grasses around her feet. (1st time for me with the grasses)

As you can see I've used a lot of doohickey die cuts all cut from Maja Sofiero papers and a variety of large frame die cuts. 
The lovely roses are from my own stash and the paper is just behind Tilda is Magnolia. 

The little Happy Birthday Chip board Die Cuts are from Unique Crafts.

Hope you like it, have a great week.

DT Post For Totally Gorjuss


Good morning everyone,

Well, as you have guessed from the title, today is a brand new challenge at TOTALLY GORJUSS and the theme this week is Dad!

Come over and join us, I know a lot of us may have made cards for their dads, I made this one for my daughter to give to my husband. 

I made little tie bunting that I cut out from patterned papers and used Edwin wants a hug.


The card is straight, I promise, just the picture isnt hee hee!

I've coloured him with copics, the papers are Maja Spring Basics and he is mounted on A Tim Holtz die cut clock with Mini Ideology clip, holding the small tag. 

I have had this DAD wording for ages, so I distressed it with my gold paint pen and I am happy with it, as it looks a little rusty!

Thank you for calling by and I hope to see you over at Totally Gorjuss, looking forward to seeing you stunning Dad Creations.

Take Care,

I Made My Own Magnolia Wedding Couple!!!

Hello Everyone,

I wanted to make a wedding card, but I have spent up, as I bought 9 stamps from the Magnolia animals of the world collection.

So I thought, I'll make my own wedding couple, so I used Edwin Wants a hug and catching Tilda, to create my little couple.

As I gave Edwin Salt and Pepper hair, he could also be father of the bride 
he he!

So here are some pictures, I adore this little diamontee horse shoe on the right of the card...






So I used WOC Trellis Roses and Embroidered Lace and Satin Ribbon from the Ribbon Girl and the papers on the front of the card is of course Maja Sofiero Collection Papers, the papers inside the card are Pion  both from Live & Love Crafts, the little clay heart is from there too!

I hope that you like this card, it took hours to make and colour and for some reason the skin looks a bit orangey, which it isnt, except on the photo!
But I am pleased with it anyway!

Thanks for dropping by and Have a Lovely Weekend.

Masked Tilda with Lace pants and Hip Hurray Tilda Card

Hello Chickies,

Here is a new masked Tilda Card, I have masked Tilda with Lace Pants and Hip Hurray Tilda.

I have also stamped a couple of Magnolia dragon flies and created a little out door scene, with stamped grasses and plants.






In this picture, you can see that I have glazed Hip Hurray Tilda's balloon with Glossy Accents to add a little dimension and interest.

I've used my spellbinders dies to create the pretty frame and the smaller layers are created with Go Kreate Frames, I've used alot of doohickeys too.

Both girls are coloured with copics and prisma pencils.

Have A Lovely Day!!!
Take care, Cuddles

Saturated Canary Best Friends Selfie

Hello Everyone, 

I have had my eye on a few of Krista Smiths New Saturated Canary Digi's. So I treated myself to a couple!

Here is Best Friends Selfie that I coloured up with my Copics and Prisma Pencils.


I love that they have completely different faces and hair, as quite often two images together can look a bit too similar.


I wanted to create a more grown up card, (even though she has a dripping Mickey Mouse Lollie Ice), so I thought that I would use more die cuts than girly elements.

I love the little chipboard sentiment from Unique Crafts and it was a perfect addition to my card, I also added a little mobile charm and a roll of film to finish off the selfie theme!

The papers are of course Maja and the flowers are from my own goodies!!!

Have a great week everyone.

Take Care,

2 Dragon Easel Card!!! Soo Cute!


Good Day Chickies

Still enjoying the bank holiday here in England, although it is the last day, I also have Tuesday off! 

Here is a card I made for fun, using the two new magnolia dragon stamps, I simply adore them, they look soo soo cute together!

They are Edwin with Teo the dragon and Tilda with Dexter the dragon, both equally adorable.

All Characters are coloured with copics and took a long time, to colour all four, great fun!!!!




I have used some spellbinders frames as the basis of the card and add some nice detail. I also used three matching floral die cuts.

Both papers are Pion Summer Basics, which are having a bit of a revival in my craft room lately, he he!

Have a fab week and happy crafting.

Tilda with Lace Pants, Masked with Tilda and Channel the puppy

Hello

Onto my card, I have masked Tilda with lace pants and Tilda with Channel the puppy, lets face it, who doesnt like puppies???





Both the Bunting and the frame around Tildas are cut from the same triple embossed card, I have also frantaged around the image.

All three papers are from L&L Crafts and are of course Maja Design, I also die cut two little tags, one from the same maja papers and one from bazzil card stock.
The little butterflies are elements from maja papers too!

The Lovely Florals are a mix from the ribbon girl, L&L Crafts and some of my own goodies!

Tilda with Elsie the Lamb

Hello Everyone,

We are enjoying a bank holiday here in England and my new set of Magnolia stamps arrived just in time, to give me an extra day to craft.

This card was a bit of a challenge as it is definately not my usual style of card that I make, but I wanted to try something different. So no large roses, daisies, hat pins, pink, so wrapped up doohickey or lace. This is about as close to a CAS card that I will ever make!

So I have masked Tilda with Elsie the lamb and the new Summer Hill background, together.

I have coloured the whole image with Copics.

I adore these double layer frames, I have also created a dotty blue sky.

You can see in this photo, that I have used three layers of Pion papers, I didn't want to cover up the beautiful floral design, which is perfect for this card. I also used colour core card to break up some of the layers and added the same around the sentiment. 
The large die cut doilie is spellbinders.



I haven't used rolled up roses for a long time, but they suit the colour scheme and I made the smallest one myself. 
The frantaged dove at the top of the image also matches nicely, I think I used Antique Beige?  It has antiqued it lovely.
Anyway I hope that you like my attempt at something different. 

Enjoy the bank holiday weekend.

Libra Tilda Card

Hello Lovelies,

I am here today to show you a card that I have made using Libra Tilda, she is soo cute!

It is also my daughters birth sign too, which is why I bought her from the Zodiac Collection!


I have coloured her with copics and...


Added a little dotty background!


All the papers are of course Maja from Live and love crafts, so is the ribbon across the middle of the card. I'm not really sure where I bought the pleated organza and satin ribbon on the bottom, so we will say its from my personal goodies!

All the florals are from Wild orchid L&L Crafts and The Ribbon Girl. 

I have added the butterfly border and matching so wrapped up doohickey, threaded with shabby seam binding,
and a couple of my hand made pins too!

Hope you like my card, have a fab week and best wishes to everyone celebrating Easter!
