Charmings

Hi everyone, I'm here today with my card using the new Vintage Garden papers from Pion Design, for Live and Love Crafts.

I've used both sides of Blue Ornament, and the reverse side of 'Tags'. I love the colour combo blue and brown, and I love these papers. The edges have been distressed with a Tin Holtz tool and then machine sewn.

I've coloured Charmings, from Saturated Canary, in with distress markers and as always I've added sparkle with glamour dust. 

I've made a bow with Chocolate Crispy Ribbon and used an Antique Jeweled Pearl Pendant, but I removed the loop.

Ribbon And/Or Lace At Deep Ocean

Hi everyone, time for another challenge at Deep Ocean Challenges, this time we want to see your creations with Ribbon and/or Lace, easy peasy!!

I've used Honey from Saturated Canary, I've coloured her with distress markers and added glamour dust for sparkle. I've also used shabby blue frantage around the image.

The papers are from Alma's Sewing Room collection by Pion Design, the edges have been distressed with a Tim Holtz tool and then machine sewn with top stitch thread.

I've tucked a small packet behind the image so that I can put a tag in, and fastened pearls and shabby seam binding to the tag.

My arty shot showing my flowers.

Hope you can play along.

Top 5 At Fashionista

Hi everyone, just popping by to say that I have made the top 5 at Fashionista Challenges, I'd love it if you could pop by and vote for me, HERE.

I've had a week away, as you may know, and on the Monday that I was away I had an amazing e-mail, stay tuned and all will be revealed. Also, when I was away I felt like a minor celebrity, the lovely Angie from Little Darlings was on Create and Craft and my creations were there, felt a tad surreal seeing what I had made on the TV, lol. I was telling other people on the course I was on, but I don't think they got just how excited I was.

I also forgot to mention, I won Totally Tilda at the weekend too :)

Better dash, I'm away on holiday next week and I have all of my DT stuff to be made, photographed and scheduled, and I don't do organised.

Background Stamp At Tilda's Town

Hi everyone, hope you have had a nice week? I'm here with my DT card for Tilda's Town, this week we want to see your cards with a background stamp, I need to make a card for someone who is getting their first house, and this image I think is perfect (it's not the first time I've used it for this purpose).

I've coloured Root Cellar with distress markers, and added stickles to the flowers for sparkle.

I've eventually got round to using my Whimsey Alphabet Stamp set.

There are links to all of the products that I've used at the end of the post.

The rolled roses are by Kort og Godt, the roses and carnations are from WOC.

Midway Reminder for CLP Challenge #58

Hi everyone, here's my midway reminder for CLP Challenge #58. Yet another gorgeous sketch from Chelsea.

I must admit, when I first saw this Tilda in the club kit I though 'hmmm', but after seeing her coloured up a few times I had to ink her up too. I've coloured her with distress markers, and added a touch of glamour dust too. There is some Aged Aqua frantage around there too.

Here's Chelsea's fab sketch.

I've also frantaged a metal rose and some pearl string too. The papers are from the 6x6 Vintage Summer Basics from Maja Design, the edges have been distressed with walnut stain.

There are links at the end of the post to the products that I've used.

Happy Birthday at Midweek Magnolias

Hi everyone, I'm here today (well I am if Mr Blogger is playing nice, as this post has been scheduled as I('m away on a training course this week) with my card for the Happy Birthday challenge at Midweek Magnolias.

I've used some of the new Pion papers, both 12x12 and the 6x6. The edges have been distressed with a Tim Holtz tool, and then machine sewn.

I've coloured Tilda with Corkscrews with distress markers, I've added loads of Glamour Dust to her crown for sparkle. Around the edges I've used Aged Rose frantage.

Sandy at LLC has just got these extra cute metal roses in, as soon as I saw them I knew I wanted to frantage them, I've used Shabby Pink on them, and they really do have to be seen to be believed just how pretty they are.

Here's a not very focused close up (sorry), they truly are stunning IRL.

An arty shot showing the gorgeous flowers.

Hope you're having a lovely week, I bet it's being more exciting than mine, lol.

I'm entering this into 'Pink Princess' at Totally Tilda.

A Creative Romance

Hi everyone, Monday again. I've scheduled this post as I'm away for a full week on a training course, I'm learning how to use one of the new analysers for the laboratory, and yes it takes a week and even then I'll not know everything. I know I'll miss my kids terribly, thank goodness for Facetime, but, a week away with no cooking, cleaning, sorting arguments, washing etc, etc adds a little shine to it.

I thought I would pop by and remind you of the new challenge starting A Creative Romance, please pop over and add your name to the linky (if you havn't already) as we have some amazing candy up for grabs, become a follower and pop our badge in your sidebar.

I hope Mr. Blogger plays nice and posts all of the posts that I have scheduled.

Hugs,

Becky xx
