Hi There Tilda....


I have used this gorgeous Tilda again!! for a magnolia challenge over on the Docrafts forum. The challenge was to use a lilac/lime colour combo and to include a sentiment, 3 buttons and some bling! I think I covered it all :0)

I have coloured Tilda with promarkers and the papers are a mix of Making Memories and K & Co. The sentiment is a self adhesive woven label from MM I have had for years!!

I have used a Woodware butterfly punch and added stickles and gems for the bling.

Thanks for looking xx

Gone fishing.....


A multi challenge card today! I made a list of this week's challenges I fancied doing and there were 10!!!! That's just too many for me! so I have combined a few with this card :0)

1 - Cute Card Thursday's 'getting edgy' challenge to tear, sand or sew your edges.

2 - PaperTakeWeekly's challenge of 'spots and stripes'.

3 - A Spoonfull of Sugar's challenge to use blue & green.

I have used a coveted Hanglar image for the card coloured with promarkers and the papers are by K & Co, a gift from Eva x

To finish I added some Papermania pearls in the corners.
