Tilda as a Clown

Hello everyone, today I have a CAS card to show you featuring Tilda as a Clown from the Magnolia Once Upon a Time Collection 2013. I am entering this card into the following challenges; Inky Chicks Challenge 5 has a theme of use a Magnolia Stamp, Creative Inspirations Challenge 216 has a theme of anything goes, and Creative Card Crew Challenge 37 where the theme is punches/dies.

For my card I have coloured Tilda with copics.....I coloured her with an array of colours so I made the image my main focus and kept the rest of the card simple. For the background I used my MS scoreboard to create a checked pattern, but you can't really see this too well in the photos!! I rounded off the corners with my corner chomper and finished off with some sewing and a ribbon.

My final shot!

Supplies
Card/Paper: Lilac and white card.
Stamps: Magnolia - Tilda as a Clown - Once Upon a Time Collection 2013

Cupcake Challenge 243

Hello everyone, over on Cupcake Challenge 243 we have a theme of lavender and lace and this week we are sponsored by Bugaboo Designs who are offering on lucky winner 7 digi images as a prize.

This week I received two gorgeous new stamps from Noor Design and as soon as I saw them I knew what I wanted to make.....my biggest problem was choosing which one to use!!! I coloured the rose in with copics and distressed the image with antique linen and vintage photo distress ink. I gave the same treatment to my DPs which are by Teresa Collins and I stitched around all the edges. Finally, I finished off with some pearl lace and two pearls on the top.

Here are some more detailed pictures for you. I love this image, I think it will be so versatile, it is pretty as a main image but it would also be fabulous as a postcard or tag embellishment for a card too.

Another....

And my final shot. The picture frame is 5 x 7 inches in case anyone was wondering!!

In the Garden

Hello everyone, today I have a card to show you featuring some new dies from Noor Design. I am entering my card into Tilda's Town Challenge 52, they have a theme of something old something new (old stamp, new dies).

I used the dies to create a scene and I experimented with a different style rather then my usual one! I used the bench and cut this out of kraft card stock, I then distressed it with vintage photo for a bit of definition. the grass die is also by Noor design and I used my copics to colour it in. Finally, the lamp post was cut out of white card and again, it was distressed with vintage photo ink. I used Summer Tilda from the Lazy Summer Days Collection 2009 and she is coloured with copics and my sentiment is from papermania.

For the inside I used the fence die, distressed it with vintage photo and added a bit of twine. I cut it out twice and I layered the bird and the bird box up with foam pads for a bit of dimension. On the other side I created a pocket and cut out and embossed two of the frame dies to make tags to write sentiments on.

A closer look at the fence.

...... and the pocket side!

And finally, an angled shot!

Supplies
Card/Paper: White card. Tilda - Summer blues
