TOMIC 39 - Sketch plus Happy Birthday text

Hi everyone! A new challenge on TOMIC starts today and this week we're celebrating Tilda's Birthday, so Happy Birthday to Tilda! Our theme this week is to follow a lovely sketch by Tina and to include 'Happy Birthday' text. More details on TOMIC, I hope you can join us and be in the running for a gorgeous prize from Magnolia.

This sweet Tilda is water coloured and I've used distress ink markers which are lovely as well distress re-inkers. The background papers are Pion and I've added Magnolia and Prima flowers and a DooHickey die cut fence. The birthday text is a white rub-on.

Enjoy your day!

TOMIC 38 - Friendship + DooHickey

Hi everyone! A new challenge on TOMIC starts today and this week there's our theme is Friendship (Friend or friendship text must be used) + a Doohickey die! . More details on TOMIC, I hope you can join us and be in the running for a gorgeous prize from Magnolia.

Ribbon hair Tilda is another of my favourite Tilda's :), I love her hair! I've water coloured and used some acrylic paint for the garden scene and wall I've painted in the background then edged the scene with a Magnolia flourish stamp and vintage photo distress ink, some stickles too on the distressed edges. The card is A5 in size and the shape created using a Sizzix on the edge doily die. I also used Magnolia paper for the background, part of a Magnolia friend sentiment that I've cut apart and then I've embellished with punched butterflies, gems, seam binding ribbon, lots of stickles and a rose.

Enjoy your day. :)

Sweet Princess Tilda

Hi everyone! Another Magnolia card today and this time previewing two more new stamps from the up-coming Prince's and Princesses collection...this is Sweet Princess Tilda and the castle background (not sure of the correct name for the castle background just yet).

I've painted using lots of bright colours for this fairytale scene and mounted the panel after faux stitching and distressing the edges onto a background of pink and then white card cut at the top with a Sizzex on the edge doily die. The letters were cut from the same pink card using a Sizzix strip die and I've added lots of flowers, lots of stickles and the words from the once upon a time sentiment which have been cut apart.

Hope you have a lovely weekend planned and thanks as always for your lovely comments. :)

Tilda's Family

Hi everyone, hope you've had a good day today! A card to share today with a stamp from the upcoming Magnolia 'Princes and Princesses' collection and this 'Tilda's Family', such a gorgeous stamp to make a card with for all those new little bundles of joy :)! 

I've water coloured the image and die cut using a Spellbinders die which I've altered slightly by cutting off the top and bottom and then faux stiched, distressed the edges and added stickles. The lace edge doily is by Marianne Design and I've used the pretty DooHickey heart swirl and the Peony flowers dies too. The flower is cut from fabric and teased into shape. The paper is by Magnolia from the Butterfly Dreams collection and to finish off the card I added gems, pom pom ribbon and some little roses. 

Enjoy your evening and thank you as always for all your lovely comments which are truly appreciated. Hoping to catch up with comments soon, life is hectic at the moment :)

TOMIC 37

Hi everyone! A new challenge on TOMIC starts today and this week there's a recipe to follow! . More details on TOMIC, I hope you can join us and be in the running for a gorgeous prize from Magnolia.

I created a card shape for my die cutting machine and cut the patterned papers to layer on top. Tilda with her rose is very sweet and I think can be used for many occasions. I watercoloured Tilda then cut her out  together with the sentiment which is a part of the sweet wonderful you stamp. Flowers and gems were my two types of embellishment for this one.

Enjoy your day. :)

TOMIC 36 Edwin + sketch

Hi everyone! A new challenge on TOMIC starts today and this week we're celebrating Edwin's Birthday! Our creations have to follow the lovely sketch by Tina and must include an Edwin. More details on TOMIC, I hope you can join us and be in the running for a gorgeous prize from Magnolia.

My card is mainly kraft card with a scrap of Scenic Route and Magnolia clouds paper for the DooHickey cut banner. Edwin is coloured with pencils and I added lots of faux stitching, buttons, white paint and stickles  to decorate.

Enjoy your day. :)

TOMIC 35 - Valentine + heart

Hi everyone and I hope you're having a good week so far. A new challenge starts today at TOMIC with a theme of Valentine + heart, so there has to be Valentine text and a heart somewhere on your creation. I hope you can join us this week, as always there's a gorgeous prize to be won from Magnolia and lots of gorgeous creations from my DT friends over on the blog.

I've used beautiful 'Tilda with cozy heart' another gorgeous Tilda from the 'Sweet, Crazy Love' collection and I've water coloured her, cut her out and added stickles for sparkle. I designed the card base with the word 'love' as the front of the card for my electronic die cutter and cut the base from white card then the layers from Magnolia paper. I also added the Doohickey 'Romantic Lace' border as the back layer of my card with pearl strings, flowers, pearl pen dots and the heart punch waste from the border die to decorate. Another one of my favourite Tilda's [there are so many of my favourites :D], she's so lovely to colour.

Enjoy your day :),
