Masked Magnolia Tilda's Card With Wooden Fence!

Hello Peeps, 

Sorry it has been so long since I last posted a card, I have been away and wouldn't you just know it, I have had the flu too!!!

Anyway, I am all better now and have a new card to show you, I managed to find a lovely little wooden fence in a craft shop in Tewksbury, where I went away to visit my family for a week.


 I have coloured Tilda with lace pance & Tilda with Rose Lace Dress with Copics. 
I have used Maja Coffee in the arbour Raspberry paper and also used the paper to die cut the doohickey butterfly and little daisies. 


As you can see I have also used some Kraft die cuts and I just love the little wooden fence!!!
Have a fab week, Take Care

Tilda with a large rose card


Hello Everyone, 

Sorry its been a while, I have started a new job and have been very busy with it.

I have been making this card over the past few days, featuring Tilda with a big rose and I have also coloured up a daisy background, coloured with copics.


The Sweet Happy Birthday Sentiment is from Unique Crafts of Holland and the two layer butterflies are elements from Pion Butterfly and Border Paper. 


I have also coloured a little cloud sky, Tilda is not masked, I cut her out initially to use on another project, but I thought she suited this background better.


As always, my papers are Maja he he and the flowers are wild orchid from the ribbon girl and live and love crafts.
Thank you so much for stopping by.
Have a great week.

Lemon Tilda Card

Evening Everyone

Here is a card that I crafted today using Lemon Tilda, I think her little espandrals sandals are super adorable, like little wedges aawww!


As you can see I have used the New Coffee in the arbour paper, this one is raspberry and the paper behind is Pion, I think its called Grandma's playroom.


I coloured her with copics and mounted her onto a fancy frame and bazzil card.


There are quite alot of die cuts, which are my favorites at the moment, the lovely gold paper clip is from Kaisercraft. The Kordt and Godt rolled roses and the other floral embellies are from the ribbon girl and live and love crafts.

Thank for stopping by, have a lovely evening.

Pink Lemonade Tilda Card


Good Morning Everyone,

Here is my card featuring Pink Lemonade Tilda, she is from the new summer collection, I just adore her little sunglasses!!!!



I used my spellbinders dies to make the card base and matched the papers and coloured card to Tilda, they are slightly off set so that they show through.



I have attached sections of a pearl Prima Flourish and the flowers are from the Ribbon Girl and The Hobby House. I also made a couple of little hand made pearl and metal pins.  
The so wrapped up doohickey is cut from Maja Paper.


I took this photo before I attached the sentiment and she is coloured entirely with copics.

Have a sunny weekend!

Magnolia Decorated Birthday Bag and some weird carrots!

Hiya Everyone, 

Here is a Kraft bag that I have been decorating over the last couple of days, I made it just for fun and really did have a lot of fun doing it!


I used Tilda with Binding Flowers as she is one of my favourite images and she is coloured with copics.
The two beautiful papers are (my other favourite) both from the Maja Sofiero Collection, matted with Bazill card stock. 
I have also used a Fimo and a Metal Corner and a couple of metal and pearl brads and some cheesecloth.


As you can see I have surrounded the image with pearls from L&L Crafts and the happy birthday sentiment is from Unique Crafts and I just adore them.


All the flowers are from Wild orchid and I think the beaded swirls are from the Ribbon Girl, as well as the beautiful pink lace.

Take a look at these weird carrots that I pulled out of our garden today for tea!!!


I just cleaned them up and still ate them, they were delicious, maybe odd shapes taste better  he he!!!

Thanks for stopping by and have a fabulous weekend!

Take Care, Big Cuddles

Saturated Canary "Denise" Card


Hello Chickies

Time for a new challenge at Totally Gorjuss!

This week its...

Bling is the thing!

Cant wait to see your beautiful interpretations of our theme!

Here is my card that I created for the theme, using Krista Smiths Denise image, click the name to find the image.

She is coloured with Copics and decided to try a darker hair colour for a change, as most of my girlies are blondies, it was alot of work, but I am happy with it.


I have used Magnolias bridal bow die cut from Matching Maja paper and added a large diamond and pearl bling embellishment in the middle!

The butterflies are Pion paper elements, I just love them, inked with Victorian Velvet DI.

Here I have made a hand made hat pin, it is metal set with pink jewels.


The front paper is maja with patterned vellum & I have also used a border from Maja, over red ribbon. The Bridal Bow and So wrapped up doohickeys are both cut from the same paper and the flowers are wild roses, from WOC.

Have a lovely weekend and dont forget to pop over and join our challenge this week!

Thanks for stopping by, Take care

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,
