Honeybee Tilda

Hello everyone, today I have a card to show you that features a couple of stamps from the new Magnolia collection Summer Memories 2012. I am entering it into the following challenges; Totally Tilda Challenge 45 has a theme of stitching, this week's Simon Says has a theme of anything goes and Stamptacular Sunday Challenge 161 has a theme of spring bling.

For my card I have used the Honeybee Tilda and Meadow Daisy stamps and they are coloured with copics. This was my second attempt.....on my first one I coloured my image then decided to sponge in the sky background, well I made a total pigs ear of it and it ended up in the bin.....so for this one I did my cloud background first, it is a little pale and I definitely need more practice!!! My DP is from Echo Park and I kept my layout simple as the image is quite large. I finished off with a double layer of ribbon, some stitching and jewels.

Supplies
Card/Paper: Black and white card. Echo Park - Country Drive
Stamps: Magnolia - Honeybee Tilda, Meadow Daisy - Summer Memories Collection 2012
Colouring: Copics - E00, E11, R20, E04, E08, YG00, YG11, YG03, G21, YG67, Y21, YR23, E35, E37, R00, R02, R05, C1, C3, C5, C7, 100, 0. Broken China Distress ink (sky background)

Waltzingmouse Challenge 94

Hi everyone, I have actually managed to make a card that isn't a DT card today! I have used the fabulous sketch from Waltzingmouse Challenge 94 and I am also entering this card for this week's Simon Says Challenge where the theme is anything goes and Creative Card Crew Challenge 9 where the theme is ribbon.

For my card I used the heart from the seasons of love set and I stamped it with memento rich cocoa ink. I then used a heart nestie to cut out the shape and sponged it with spun sugar distress ink while it was still in the die. The sentiment is from the fancy phrases set and I masked off part of the stamp to show it on two lines. The DP is from echo park and I finished off with a bit of stitching, a few pearls and some ribbon.

Supplies
Card/Paper: White and pink card. Echo Park - Life is good
Stamps: WMS - Seasons of Love, Fancy Phrases.
Ink: Memento - Rich Cocoa, Distress ink - spun sugar
Embellishments: Pearls, ribbon
Tools: Sewing machine, trouvaille, nesties, blending tool
