Love Love Love Tilda Anniversary card.

Hello, crafty bloggers.

I hope you are all well!

We had lots of rain and isolated thunder storms all day yesterday here in Derbyshire.

 Well at least the lawn and plants got a good watering and today is bright sunshine and very warm again

I was asked to make an Anniversary card for a gentleman to give to his

Son and Daughter in Law.

They are celebrating their Wedding Anniversary next month.

 

Here is the card.

 

 

I have used a 6"x6" card and added Magnolia Doohickey - Vintage Box Lacing Coffee from my super bloggy friend to the front and inside end of the card. I distressed the edges with

Tim Holtz "Tea Dye" distress ink.

 

I have stamped Love Love Love Love Tilda onto a Spellbinders Floral Oval with Memento ink and coloured her with Polychromos pencils. I surrounded the image with Fran~tage shabby white embossing enamel from Live & Love Crafts  and distressed the frame with "Tea Dye" distress ink placing it onto a piece of cheese cloth.

 

The papers that I have used are Magnolia  "With Love" Arrow Heart and

"With Love" Carte Postale.

I have Inked the edges of the papers with Tim Holtz "Tea Dye" distress ink and matted them onto Woodware recycled card placing a white doily behind them.

 

The flowers that I used for the arrangements are 30mm ivory roses and 15mm cream roses from

Wild Orchid Crafts.

The white rolled roses, Kort & Godt chrysanths  and silver heart charm are from

The Ribbon Girl.

I can't remember where I got the circle of beaded pearls but, they were in my craft stash.

 

I have computer generated the sentiment in Word using Harrington font 18, inked the edges

 and matted it onto recycled card.

I have added a small amount of Fran~tage to the Tim Holtz love ticket.

 

 

I have Fran~taged a Magnolia Doohickey butterfly also from my super bloggy friend with shabby white embossing enamel and added a 15mm cream rose to the centre.

 

 

I have painted some Snow ~ Tex from Live & Love Crafts onto the flowers and added a 3mm red pearl to the centres of the rolled roses. The white vintage metal corner also from

 Live & Love Crafts has been Fran~taged with shabby white embossing enamel.

 

 

Inside the card has been decorated to compliment the front.

I have adhered a string of white pearls from Live & Love Crafts  around the inside of the frame.

 

I hope the couple like their card!

Have A Sunny Day Flip Flop Tilda!

Hello, Crafty blogger's.

Summer is still here! Phew!!! It's hot and I am even hotter. Just been out and cut the lawn and I'm not kidding........ Our lawn is at 90 degree angle. Lol.

 

Ok. Slight exaggeration
 

I have made a card featuring Flip Flop Tilda.

I loved colouring her. She is so pretty.

 

 

Flip Flop Tilda has been stamped with Memento black ink and I have cut her out using a

Spellbinders oval die.

I have cut out the card shape and papers with Go Kreate large frames Frilly #2.

The papers are Tilda Kitchengarden by Panduro.

 The edges of the papers have been lightly sanded and inked with Tim Holtz "Spun Sugar"

distress ink. I have done the same with the Spellbinders Floral Oval frame

The BoBunny doilies were sent to me by my super bloggy friend.

The butterflies are Memory Box "Pippi."

I have Fran~taged the butterflies with shabby pink embossing enamel from Live & Love Crafts and coloured the centres with a pale pink Flexmarker.

I have placed some cheese cloth onto the Floral Oval and adhered Tilda to the centre with 2mm sticky pads.

The Magnolia Doohickey Jolly tag has been fran~taged with shabby pink embossing enamel and inked around the edges with "Spun Sugar" distress ink.

 

I have used an assortment of flowers for the arrangement. The daisies, Kort & Godt daisies and 20mm pink roses are from The Ribbon Girl and the 15mm roses, gypsophilia white rose buds are from Wild Orchid Crafts.

 

I have used 3mm and 5mm white pearls in the top left corner of the card and added 3mm white pearls on the floral oval.

 

The stamped sentiment is Magnolia.

 

 

Inside the card has been decorated to compliment the front.

I have added some Glamour Dust to her flip flops and to the centre of the rose in her hair.

I have surrounded the image with dots of Ranger white liquid pearls from Live & Love Crafts

 

 

I have used shabby pink Fran~tage embossing enamel on the large daisies and added Snow~Tex from Live & Love Crafts to the other flowers.

Hello, crafty bloggers.

Bad sun!

Tina. Tina is one of the ladies on the design team for Live & Love Crafts.

I have taken quite a few pictures.

And here is the card again. Just wanted to show you the card with the Magnolia Doohickey Jolly tag out of the mini paper bag. I stamped the tag with a sentiment from Lili Of The Valley.

 I tied a  piece of pink saitin edged ribbon through the hole at the top.

Tilda With A Small Gift.

Hello, crafty bloggers.

I was asked to make a card for a lady who's very special friend was having a Birthday today.

"Pink's and purple's" she said and with only one day's notice. Phew!!!!
Here is the card that I made.

 

 

 

I have stamped Tilda with Memento Toffee Crunch ink and cut her out using a Spellbinders large Floral Oval die.

I have coloured the image with Polychromos pencils and inked around the frame with Tim Holtz Tea Dye distresss ink adding a white 3mm pearl to the top, sides and bottom of the frame.

The image has been surrounded with shabby white Fran~tage and I dotted Tilda's cheeks with Inkssentials opaque white pen.

 

The Maja Design "Vintage Spring Basics" papers have also been inked around the edges with Tea Dye distress ink and then I matted them onto Woodware recycled card.

I Love this card as it goes with any design papers.

 

The corner filigree from Wild Orchid Crafts has been Fran~taged with Shabby white embossing enamel and the Memory Box Pippi butterflies have been Fran~taged with

shabby pink embossing enamel.

I have coloured the centres of the butterflies with  a pink carnation Promarker and the lovely diamond lace at the bottom is from The Ribbon Girl.

 

I have used a selection of flowers which are a 30mm pink rose and 15mm purple roses from

Wild Orchid Crafts.

 The white rolled Kort & Godt roses, Kort & Godt daisies, beaded pearls and pink rose buds are from The Ribbon Girl.

 

I have added a pink 5mm pearl to the centre of the rolled roses.

The birdcage charm is from Live & Love Crafts.

 

The sentiment is a freebie from Desert Diva.

Tilda With Hellebores.

Hello, Crafty bloggers.

I hope you are all well!

I had a request to make a Birthday card for my mum's friends mother who turns

 89 years old next week.

I have 30 Maggie's now so it was very hard to choose which one to use because I love them all but, after much deliberation I chose Tilda With Hellebores.

 

Here is the card.

 

 

I have stamped Tilda onto a Spellbinders Floral Oval with Memento Toffee Crunch ink and coloured her with Polychromos pencils.

The pretty papers are Maja Design "Vintage Spring Basics." I have inked the edges with Tim Holtz "Tea Dye" distress ink and matted them onto Woodware recycled card.

The 25mm cream satin ribbon and flower shaped pearls are from The Ribbon Girl.

I inked the edges of the floral die and adhered a string of white pearls around the inside adding shabby white Fran-tage around Tilda placing a piece of cheese cloth underneath.

The Memory Box Pippi butterflies have also been Fran-taged and I have coloured the centres with a powder blue Promarker.

The flower arrangement consists of 30mm antique blue roses, 15mm white and blue roses and white tulips all from Wild Orchid Crafts and the Kort & Godt white rolled roses and chrysanthemum's are from The ribbon Girl.

The antique metal white corners and clay heart are from Live & Love Crafts.

The sentiment which reads a Birthday wish for my mother is a freebie from Desert Diva. I have used a smaller Spellbinders floral die to cut it out, inked the edges and added a sprinkle of shabby white Fran-tage.

 

 

A shot of the card at a different angle.

 

 

Inside the card has been decorated to compliment the front.

 

 

I have added Glamour Dust to the bow in Tilda's hair and used Ranger white liquid pearl in the centres of the flowers.

 

 

I hope you like what you see!

 

 

I am entering my card into the following super challenges:
