Feeling pink

Hey everyone! I was in a pink mood today, which is quite rare, I hardly ever do pinky girly cards but I was really in the mood for it today! My good friend Vix sent me this beautiful Tilda that I had had on my wish list-it's come to a good home Vix! She sent me such a beautiful card as well, with a gorgeous matching envelope-thanks so much sweets! I started off following the sketch atA Spoonful of Sugar but have altered it a fair bit as I resized elements and added so I hope it's ok:) Also am entering it at Pollycraft Monday who want to see out favourite things (distressing),Just Magnolia which is a card for a friend,and Cupcake Craft Challenges which is something sweet (It's also their 1 year birthday so there's lets of fun stuff going on so go check it out!).

Stuff: Magnolia Tilda coloured with promarkers and copics, basicgrey and papermania papers, coredinations cardstock regular plus whitewash, sewing machine, nesties and cuttlebug, ribbon from stash, magnolia sentiment from summer kit, pearls from Quixotic Paperie, bling from stash.

Oooo I gotta tell you what I won today! When I checked google reader this morning I went to read the greeting farm's new post and I won a stamp giveaway so I got to pick a set of my choice! Couldn't believe it-haven't won anything for ages it seems! Maybe mr random generator is my friend again-hehe. Sooo what do you reckon I picked? I just had to go for the new miss anya dressy set-how super duper gorgeous are they?! Proper chuffed:)

Thanks so much for popping by today and any comments you might leave-they make my day! Don't forget to pop back tomorrow-it's Delicious Diva day tomorrow! Huggles-sleep well:)

Summery Tilda and a few challenges

Good morning everyone! Hope everyone is having a good week so far. I've gone all summery today and used this cutie Tilda and some gorgeous cherry papers to match her. The theme over at Simon Says Challenge this week is summer fruits or summer colours and since I still live in hope of winning a $25 shopping spree at their store I had to play along again! I've also followed the sketch at Pollycraft monday which has just opened their challenge blog to include any images *doesn't have any sweet pollycraft stamps to play with yet*, their theme is also food and drink and since this Tilda has cherries on her boots and I have some on the papers I think that qualifies! Over at our Creative Corner their challenge this week is called 'triple play' and they give you a list of embellies to pick 3 from-I've chose buttons, ribbon (raffia) and bling. Also...Just Magnolia want us to use buttons. Phew!

Stuff: Magnolia Tilda coloured with promarkers, hotp papers, core'dinations card, raffia and buttons from stash, prima flowers, sentiment from part of a forever friends stamp, prima bling, distress inks.

Leo's little backpack arrived yesterday and he spent a lot of the day carrying it round and putting stuff in it and zipping it up-so sweet! I'll pop a proper pic up of him later when I've uploaded em as they're on me phone. I ordered a couple of Motivet stamps the other night-they're so adorable I just had to have some so hopefully they'll arrive soon! Thanks so much for stopping by and any comments you might leave me-they make my day! Huggles xxx

Just Magnolia

I keep leaving the Just Magnolia challenge too late as I always think I have loads of time to do it then the week whizzes by, so I've got in early! A few weeks ago I mentioned that the village shop started stocking my cards, well 80% of the stock I gave them has been sold so I dropped some more off yesterday but she wants a few get well cards and I think this cutey Tilda is just right. Went with an earthy palette of colours, I don't often use green so it was a bit different but I love the combination now it's finished.  Not sure if you can see in the pic very well but some of the roses are a bit shiny as I popped some glossy accents on-love that stuff! Ooo nearly forgot to say that I've ordered the summer Magnolia stamp club now-hope it won't be long till they're released!

Materials: Magnolia Tilda Spring release, core'dinations cardstock, Cloud9 papers and chipboard stickers (flowers), papermania brads, ccsr sentiment, glossy accents, prima flowers

Thanks for stopping by-really appreciate it! Hope everyone's had a fab weekend!

Just Magnolia Challenge

Well here's my card for the new Just Magnolia challenge. Remembered to pop it on my baby easel this time too. I used papers fro my stash, Crafty individuals backing paper springtime for the circle, tilda with baby tingla coloured with promarkers, papermania felt, craftynotions flowers,and  papermania brads. Forgot to say yesterday that I bought a copic pen to have a go with but found that the brush lines weren't invisible like with the promarkers so wasn't too impressed. Perhaps it was me though?! Been a quiet day today, well in that haven't been anywhere exciting, but Leo hasn't exactly been quiet as he's having trouble with teething atm. Bless him. I saw the new Magnolias released yesterday, the spring ones, they are gorgeous but the couple I was after have sold out! Will have to wait till next week and see who else gets them in stock as have only seen one online shop which was craftsulove. I really wanted the one with tilda holding the ladybug, sooo adorable. Well I'm going to go play in the craft room now Leo has gone to bed.
