Magnolia Puppy Love Tilda

Hi everyone,

Happy Sunday on this beautiful sunny day, I hope you are having a wonderful relaxing day and are able to get to some well earned craft time in today.

It is time for a new challenge at Lovely Hanglar or Sweet Magnolia and we have a fab bingo card for our challenge this time.

I have coloured up the beautiful Puppy Love Tilda from the Winter Wonderland collection using Copics and Spectrum Noir pencils. I think she is pretty versatile and could be used any time of the year, although it won't be long until I start posting a few Christmas cards. I opted for Lace, Flowers and Ribbon (no surprise there lol) and kept this card fairly simple. The shape was cut using a Go Kreate die, Large Frame Frilly #6 and the papers are all by Maja, but I have mixed them up bit. All the beautiful lace and flowers are from The Ribbon Girl. Links to the products are at the end of this post, just click on a picture to be taken directly to the product.

Summer Wedding Tilda

Morning everyone,

Happy weekend to you all!

This morning I am sharing my inspirational card for the The Rubber Buggy.

I have made quite a plain style of card for me called a Double Dutch fold and stamped up the very pretty Summer Wedding Tilda. I have coloured her with Copics and Spectrum Noir pencils. The Maja papers have been distressed and mounted onto some Cotton Candy Bazzill card. Tilda has also been mounted on the Bazzill card and a Paper Doily. The flowers are 25mm WOC Roses and White Tulips. To finish it off I have made a bow with Pink Sheer White Stitched edge ribbon. the Butterflies are a Memory Box die, but since I made the card Kellie has sold out of them. Just click on a picture at the bottom of this post to take you directly to the product.
