In The Snow Scarf Tilda

Morning everyone, I'm here today with my card for two challenges, firstly at The Ribbon Girls Magnolia Challenge we want to see your cards sparkle, and over at Totally Tilda we want to see your cards with Tilda wearing red. 

From the Ribbon Girl I have used red top stitch thread, white rose pearl organza, 5mm self adhesive pearls, shiny red berries, frosted brown cones, white hat pins, 6mm white pearl trim, white lilies, white sweetheart blossoms and oodles of Stardust Stickles to make the card sparkle. 

I have coloured Tilda with Inktense pencils, at last I can do red, I have always struggled colouring red with Copics and DI's, but not a problem with these pencils, yay!! The papers are from A Gift For You the new collection from Maja Design, I must admit the red and black colour scheme is growing on me. 

Thanks for popping by,

Hugs,

Halloween At Totally Tilda

Morning everyone, it's time for a new challenge at Totally Tilda, our theme this fortnight is Halloween, and we are sponsored by Simon Says Stamp.

Something you don't see much of from me is CAS, but I didn't have any Halloween suitable papers, so there was only the one way to go.....

I have coloured Tilda with my Inktense pencils, the edges have been stitched with black top stitch thread, the buckle was part of a crafty birthday gift which has been threaded onto lilac faux silk ribbon.

Have a great Sunday,

Tilda With Maggie the Monkey

Morning everyone, I'm popping in today on Grace's seventh birthday with my card for our new challenge at Totally Tilda, for this challenge we want to see Tilda holding an animal, bird or butterfly. Being from Hartlepool there was only one Tilda I could use for this (if you don't know the connection, click HERE).

I have coloured Tilda with Maggie the Monkey with inktense pencils. This is actually William's card that he gave Grace today, so I had a bit of his input into how it was decorated, I had to convince him to let me add the one rose! The Sister tag is from the Family Sentiment Tags from Lili Of The Valley.

The papers are from Maja Design, from both the 6x6 Vintage Summer Basics pad and the 1933 12x12 sheet from the same collection. The edges have been distressed with a Tim Holtz tool and also some Walnut Stain ink too.

I have used the new Lovely View die from Little Darlings. The embellies William allowed me to use are all from The Ribbon Girl, I've used ivory rose organza, 5mm self adhesive pearls, stardust stickles, Emily lace and some Ivory Tulle that I have made a bow with.

Hope you can play along, for this challenge we are sponsored by Simon Says Stamp.

Better go and be mammy to the birthday girl.
