Okay Tilda And A Brand New Challenge #147 At LHOSM

Hello, lovely blogger friend's.

I hope you are well?

I'm here with my DT creation for our month long challenge at

Our challenge theme is A SPECIAL DATE!

(Birthday's Anniversaries, Christening, Engagement, Wedding, New Arrival, Driving Test, Graduation, etc) Don't forget to use either a Haenglar or Magnolia Image on your projects.

I have made a Birthday card for my Mum who is celebrating her Birthday today.

Today is also Gina's Birthday. Happy Birthday Gina!

I used Okay Tilda from Magnolia Lovely Emojis 2017 Collection.

The Image is stamped with Memento rich cocoa Ink onto Bristol board extra smooth cardstock.
 I have coloured the image with Prismacolor & Polychromos pencils, and fussy cut around the Image.

For the shape of my card I used GoKreate large frame frilly #2 and Maja Design 'Sofiero' and 'Shades of Sofiero' 6 x 6 paper stacks.

Other dies used; Cheery Lynn English tea party doily, French pastry doily and Sofia's heart doily. Creative expressions lattice arched adornment. Magnolia Doohickey bloomy tag, Spellbinders lattice hearts, Dovecraft happy Birthday sentiment, Joy Crafts filmstrip and Prima forest leaves.
