New Year Sakura Tilda Card

Hey everyone, I hope your all well.

 

I have made this card with New Year Sakura Tilda and the shabby which roses are just to sigh for hee hee!

I wanted to have a break from making Christmas cards and this little lovely is in the new Christmas Set, so sort of Ironic, but she is a new years Tilda and I just love the little wink she is giving! Sooo Cute!

 

 

Sorry that the pictures are dark, its been overcast today and we are due to be hit with a big storm later.

 

 

I have coloured her skin and hair with promarkers and everything else is with Copics and added some sparkle around the edges with Frantage.

 

 

The Stunning roses, lace and gysophillia are all from the ribbon girl, I have made a large handmade pin to compliment the colour scheme and I just adore this "Gemma" dusky pink lace.

 

 

I have also used A stunning pink diamontee embellishment, which is just stunning!

 

Thank you for poppng by and have a good week.

Take Care.

Practically No Lines In The Snow Scarf Tilda



 



 

Hello Again Everyone,

I hope that your all having a good day and week so far.

 

I have called this Tilda card practically no lines, as I have used a very faint stamp to stamp this lovely new scarf Tilda Image. I have coloured her with Prisma pencils LOS Technique and used Promarkers for the skin and hair.

 

There are little pefect pearls snowflakes, Diamond Dust Heart Shaped Snowball and Floral Scene Snow, all distressed around the edge of the image and with a lovely new release frame.

 

Practically all the gorgeous florals are from the Ribbon girl, as is the stunning Abigail Cream lace across the center of my card.

I love this Gypsophalia as it is little wired branches and can be shaped, I shaped mine into a slight half oval. (link in my side bar for online store)

 

The papers are Maja Spring Basics and distressed colour core card and a piece from my own goodies.

 

I made a little pearl crystal pin (on the right) and two layer snowflakes! I have also added a brown Tilda Tag, Embellished with deep golden berries and ribbon.

 

Thank you for dropping by and have a fab week!

Take care

I distressed the snowflake border with DI in bundled Sage.

 

With Removable So Wrapped Up Tilda Doohickey. 

 

Frantaged Trees, Gold Acorn Embellishment and bambi raindeer charm.

 

I coloured her with distress inks and distressed and frantaged around the edge of the image.

Besties "Sitting Pretty" Background Topper

 

Hello Everyone,

I hope that your all having a good weekend.

  

I have made a few darker cards lately, so I thought that I would make something colourful & girly  for a change. So I used sherri Baldys "Sitting Pretty Besite" which I think is really cute and you can find her here.

Don't forget that October is breast cancer awareness month, so here is my pink creation.

 

 

 

I have coloured her with promarkers for the skin and hair and added a hint of spectrum noire, to add a little auburn and golden accents. I have coloured the image with Prisma pencils, using the low odour solvent technique, which is my favourite!!! The papers are magnolia and colour core card, which I haven't sanded for a change hee hee!

 

I simply adore this crispy ribbon, I've got almost every colour!!!
The ribbon & doilie are from Live & Love Crafts and the pom poms are from the ribbon girl (links in my side bar to both on line stores.
 The Cherry blossoms in the top right hand corner are from the hobby house, which are quite unusual colours, for cherry blossoms.

 

All the rest of the embellies are from my stash of goodies!

 

Thank you for popping by and enjoy the rest of the weekend.

Shabby Chic Saturated Canary Card

 

 

Afternoon Everyone,

 

Ooh you can really feel autumn creeping in here in the UK, the weather fits my card perfectly!

 

I love this image by Krista Smith, her name is Sabrina, but I really think that she looks a lot like Cinderella to me?

 

 

I have coloured her with prisma pencils using the low odour solvent technique, which is my absolute favourite and promarkers for the skin and hair, again another favourite hee hee!

 

The papers are all Maja Autumn Basics, the new range is stunning and the inside is decorated with the same paper and a large ornate oval - you know the one I mean!

 

All the flowers and most of the embellishments are either from the ribbon girl or live and love crafts, both links to online stores can be found in my sidebar.

 

I simply adore the so wrapped up doohickeys, this one is removable and threaded with ribbons, lace and a tiny

Thank you for popping by today and a have a good week.

Take Care and keep warm, Big Cuddles

A different Christmas Card For Me

 

Hi Everyone, I wanted to pop along and show you my card.

I felt like making a Christmas card, but not one with lots of sparkly bits. I think that this one is quite grown up and I love the cute Tilda image too.

 

Its quite a different design for me and even more different because I used my copics to colour the image.

 

 

I really wanted to make some xmas cards so I had a shop at Live and Love Crafts and bought the lovely berries and mini fair cone and lots of beautiful papers. This one is called Joyful and is from
Maja Design’s Christmas Collection 2012, I also used the border on the reverse of the paper.

I think the ribbon and pom poms are from the ribbon girl and organza rose trim is from Live and Love Crafts too.

 

Thank you for popping by my blog and have a good day.

Take Care,

Cuddles Jay xxx

Tilda with comfort blanket

Good Morning Everyone, I have popped along to show my new card,  that I have coloured entirely with distress inks. I have been practicing a lot and watching tutorials on u tube and I think that this one has turned out quite nice.

I didn't want to put too many embellies on this card, as quite often I finish my card and realise that I have covered nearly all the beautiful paper (I know we've all been there!) so had to exercise a little self restraint hee hee!

 

There are 5 layers of papers and card, the top layer is beautiful  Maja Design Sofiero Paper

called The Magnificent Flower Street.

I have added a little frantage glitter to the image and the frame behind tilda and sentiment are cut from paper from the same range.

 

 

The larger amber berry to the right of the picture is from live and love crafts, but I couldn't find it when I checked their site, so I don't know what it is called. The frosted pink berries, shabby heart and cluney lace across the middle of the card, are also from LLC too.

 

The roses, cherry blossom and resin dove are from the ribbon girl.

 

 

With the tag removed from behind the image. It is distressed threaded with mocha and pink lace and coffee coloured ribbon and has a tiny teddy bear charm hanging from a silver ring.
I have also frantaged an ornate metal corner with vintage beige.

 

 

Perfect Sentiment! From LOTV.

 

Thank you for stopping by my blog and have a good week.

 

Take care

Edwin and Magnolia, beach themed card

 

 

Hello All My Lovely Friends.

 

I made this Edwin & Magnolia Card Today. After sunning myself in my garden for a while hee.

She is Tilda With Seashells and He is Edwin With Starfish and the sunny background (I think, as it does not say on the packaging).

 

Anyhow, here is my card

 

Coloured with copics and prisma pencils, I have sprinkled shabby beige frantage and embossed to give a raised sandy texture, I did the same with my no lines card too, as it gives an especially good effect.

 

I took a little inspiration from Jenny Hodges and added a couple of die cut corners. Thanks Jen!

 

Rolled Roses From The Ribbon Girl.

 

Lovely Angel Fish From Live & Love Crafts and the papers are magnolia nautical papers, from the new collection. The lace is from my own stash

 

I have threaded some twine between the die cut waves to add some interest and also through the doohickey, one is a pink and white striped devine twine.

 

 

With the doohickey removed from behind the image.

 

WOW, it has been so hot here today, I had to come inside for a little while, I started to make this card yesterday, so had a little break from the sun and finished it off.

 

I hope that you like it and enjoy the rest of the bank holiday, here in the UK!

 

Take care everyone.

Besties Half Easel Love Card

 

Good Afternoon Everyone,

 

I have made this Besties half easel card and for a change I didn't add any flowers to the main image section, placing them below instead.

I am loving these half easel cards at the moment and this is my second one, I won a top three spot with A Creative Romance with my previous half easel card!
I Have Just Found Out That I Am First Place Winner In The Besties Challenge With This Card Too Woohoo!!!

 

I coloured her with Promarkers and Flexmarkers, although the dress did not require a lot of colouring, the face and hair did. This is a gorgeous image, I just love Sherri's Besties, she is called first prom!

 

 

I adore these papers they are both from the Maja Design Sofiero collection, the two are called "Strolling down the rose garden and Enjoy the lovely Fragrance". Both are from Live and Love Crafts. I also punched two tiny butterflies from the maja papers and distressed them with DI.

 

 

Removable Heart Doohickey threaded with Sheer Ribbon, Strung Pearls and Looped satin Ribbon. I Frantaged one side, Distressed it and added a heart charm and stamped it with love on the opposite side in Rich Mocha Ink. The tag is from behind the image.

 

 

The Beautiful gathered Lace is from LLC the flowers are from the ribbon girl. I punched and distressed two little butterflies from the leftover paper and added tiny oval pearls to their bodies. So nothing went to waste, I also used magnolia butterfly paper behind the maja papers and distressed them all.

 

 

Finally, I made a large hat pin, distressed and covered on the edge butterflies with the same maja paper and frantaged heart the embellishment from LLC.

 

All Links to online stores are in my sidebar.

 

Thank you for popping by and have a lovely weekend.

Take Care, Cuddles
