Magnolia tilda baby book card ....

Hi everyone, thought i would pop by to show you a card that i made a couple of months ago but forgot to blog, it's another book card, i love making these, they just take a little bit longer than normal lol ...


                                    I used this cute baby Tilda which is from an older release, cant 
                               remember the exact name of her, which i coloured with copics ....                                       Again, i used those gorgeous papers from Maja Design,
                                        which are from the vintage summer basics collection,
                                        The cute little tag is a Magnolia Tilda doohickey die....
                                     

The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts,
and the beaded spray and rosette trim is from Live and Love Crafts ....


Her is a pic of the inside which i decorated to compliment the front,
using the same papers, the tag is different, but is also
a magnolia doohickey die ......

Totally tilda and friends ... Anything goes

Hi everyone, hope you all had a great weekend, unfortunately i have some sad news, this will be the very last challenge for Totally Tilda and friends, even though i haven't been on the design time all that long, i had great fun with such a fabulous team..
                                 So for the last time, sob, sob, the theme is Anything goes........
                                                           and here's what i created,


It's not very often i am 100% happy with the way a card turns
out, but i really love this one and looks so much better IRL...


I used a Tilda paper pad for this card called 
A country Escape, its so gorgeous,
the cute image of the little girl was from 
a sheet of vintage girls from Pion Design,
and the sentiment is from Lili of the Valley .....


For the card base i used Spellbinders Grand Stately Circles, 
and the Grand circles, other dies used were doohickey swirl
and a Marianne Design clock die .....

I stuck individual pearls all the way around the edge of the circles,
which were from my stash,
and all the gorgeous flowers are from Live and Love Crafts ... 


     Here is a close of the lush flowers ....

Saturated Canary ballerina with tag ....

Hi everyone, i'm back with a quick post as i'm just on my way out, hopefully to order a new sofa as busy decorating yet again, lol ... my downstairs looks like a demolition site as putting in a new kitchen and totally making over the room, new sofa, fire, carpet etc ....
                                    Here is my card, i have no idea what this style of card is called
                                         as i found a tutorial to it on another blog, which i will pop
                                                               back later with a link to it .....

                              I used a fab cute image from Saturated Canary, isn't she adorable ....
                                                            I coloured her up with copics.


  And as usual, can you guess which papers i used ....
   yes Maja Design, these are The coffee in the Arbour collection
  

The tag is removable and is used to keep the card closed or you can
add it to present and leave the card how it is ...


                                            I used a Martha Stewart punch around the page,
                                        the little bow on the top of the tag is a Sue Wilson Die,
                                          and all my flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and
