Totally Tilda Easel card

Time for a brand new challenge over at Totally Tilda! Wahooooo! This time around Susie wants ya to make an easel card. I have to admit mine is not my best work. I have been sick lately and I am not at peek performance.

Papers are K&Company, flowers are Wild Orchid. I found some large rectangular shaped paper doilies at a dollar store which I cut off a section from for the background area. I colored my Tilda with copics and gave her a once over with the ole spicas for a lovely glittery shine!

I used my MS branch punch, or whatever it is called! ROFL!

sentiments are Stampin up. I don't know why but I sure have a hard time taking pictures of easel cards. Oh well. Not sure what the prizes are for this round but I am sure they are good knowing Susie so you better pop over there and check it out.

I am entering my card over at Magnolia Down under where the challenge is a gift for you. I interpreted it by wrapping my ribbon on my card like I would wrap it on a gift. Over at Paper Sundaes the challenge is Cut it Out and I cut out my image. At Cupcake inspirations the picture is a Santa Cake in Reds, greens, whites and skin tones.

That's it for me folks!

Hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend!

Totally Tilda and lots more love...

We are half way through the fortnightly challenge over a Totally Tilda, where the challenge this round is "For the one you love". That's right our dear Susie wants you to make a card for the one you love. 

It is my turn to make a midway reminder card and here is my creatoin:

Once again, as we are being sponsored by the lovely Lynne over at Sentiments for You, I have used a sentiment made by Lynne herself! I had it in my head to use this Tilda from the Christmas collection but I not for a Christmas card. When i saw this one the first thing I though was "I love you this much!" So I asked Lynne to make me one and sure 'nuf she did. Gee thanks Lynne!

I actually covered the holly that she had in her hair with ribbons. Slick huh?

Make sure you head over to Totally Tilda! You still have a whole week to get your entry in there!

The theme over at Totally Tilda this round is For the one you love. Susie wants you to make a card for your special someone. We are being sponsored this round by the lovely Lynne from Sentiments 4 you. We all got to use one of her sentiments on our cards and mine was custom made for me! HE HE!

Well where do I start. Hummmm paper from K&Company, my fave. Heart doily a la Corry. Thanks doll! The love birds were colored with a light copic base and shaded with prismas. Flowers are Primas and WO. Yup. Oh yeah, I made the tag in the back with one of hubby's tags for tagging tools I guess. Beat the dickens out of it, stained it and printed hearts and italian smoochin words. That's Amore!

Totally Tilda Glitz 'n' Gold

Wow that two weeks just flew by! And in that two weeks we got instant winter, overnight. Went to bed one night, no snow, get up 6" of snow and by the end of the storm it has to be close to a foot and minus 20! I was out fishing with my dad less than a week ago! Well enough of that, I have a card for you, honest I do!

I just love these angel Tildas. I am all about fairytales! he he! That lovely chocolaty ribbon was a scoop from my bud Trisha, thanks Trish! I just love the wire in the ribbon, really added something all crinkled up like that. The gold velvet ribbon is from Really Reasonable Ribbons. The flowers are my fave, Wild Orchid. 

I created the ornate border with my new MS border punch, love it! 

And a close up for ya. I colored Tilda with my Prismas and stumps and baby oil on the body and I always use my copics for the skin, always! 

Susie has got some yummy prizes for you over at Totally Tilda challenges. We are being sponsored this week by Bunny Zoe and the prize is a good one so you gotta get a card in there so go and check it out!

Totally Tilda Pink and Pearls

Another new challenge is up over at Totally Tilda, Pink and Pearls. The halloween challenge is still up though and runs till the end of the month so make sure you get a halloween Tilda entry in!

This is actually my image I used for the graphics for my Truvy character over at our Steel Magnolias blog. I colored her with my usuals, copics for the skin and hair and prismas, stumps and baby oil for her clothes. The sentiment is by Ann Vento and I added the vines and butterflies to the ends in photoshop. The flowers are wild orchid, I sprayed them with hairspray and dumped pink glitter on them, then knocked off the excess.

The pin I made myself, the butterfly was from Dollarama. I got the lovely lace pink heart from my BFF Corry, and she got them from and online shop. I am sure she said where on her blog somewhere! he he.

We are sponsored this week by the lovely Bunny Zoe's crafts and if you want to know what the prize is head over to TOTALLY TILDA and get the deets.
