Tilda With Corkscrews

Morning Crafters,

Can't believe how quickly this comes around, but it's time for another challenge at BunnyZoe.  This time is something quite different...... Be inspired by one of the BunnyZoe DT Members.  So hop on over to the challenge post and chose a DT member who inspires you and enter this month's challenge.

My card today has been made using accetate. I wanted to use the new Kaisercraft Wooden Gates and I thought they would work fabulously with Tilda with corkscrews, but I didn't want to lose the beautiful intricate design of the wooden doors.  I added Fabscrapbs latch set so the card can be closed and opened.

The beautiful butterflies are from from magnolia butterfly kit, link below, and I stamped the butterfly text directly onto the accetate using stazon ink before attaching the butterfly.


Here's a view with the card open, so at all times you can see those fabulous gates and of course the little princess inside.  The terrocota pot on the right hand side is a Marianne Design Die which I cut and out on cryogen cardstock and then coloured with my copic markers.  I added some Flower Spray to the top, love it.  The gorgeous paper is from Magnolia called Japanese garden.



Here's a view of the back of the card.   I have cut two magnolia doohickey tags and will add text later.  The banner is by LaLaLand and oh almost forget the edges are using the Magnolia Doohickey Lacing Coffee die.



Don't forget to pop by the BunnyZoe Blog and see which DT member you choose to be inspired by.

First and Last of 2010/2011 and Some News

Hi again Peeps,

Here's my last card that I did in 2010 but didn't get time to post and my first finished card of 2011.  Couldn't wait to ink up this new Hanglar cutie but then again I say that about all my stamps, lol.  I am currently spending time with the family but  saying that they are both belting out Summer of 69 in my ear and all I can say is I didn't have any cats before, but it sounds like I do now, lol.  Do you think if I got up and went to my craft room there'd notice...........


Look at me being so super organised, let's see how long it lasts.  These gorgeous papers are the new to be released tomorrow Love Dreams by Bearly Mine Designs.
Image is by Hanglar and Stanglar and coloured using copics and prisma pencils
Doily is from Bizzy Bec's Store
Magnolia Doohicky lace die and swirl
Fired Brick Distress Ink
Martha Stewart Heart Punch
Lade from stash



This card was kinda hard to fulfil, I was given the recipe from the lad in my office for his girlfriends card which he left to the last minute.  Not so good for me as it was housework night, lol.  He required stitching, christmas tree and the magnolia image chosen, swirls and the snowflakes. He did want layers but with this paper it just would have spoiled it.   I think I achieved it all or thereabouts.

Materials Used:
Magnolia Image
Tree stamp was from Stamp Addicts
Papers are Websters
Snowflake christmas decoration topped with Marianne Design Snowflake and a Martha Stewart Punced one
Everything else from stash

The new challenge blog kicks off next Saturday HERE, so if your not already a follower hop on over, you won't want to miss all the fun.

Tilda Nightingale

Evening Peeps,

Tomorrow's Friday and I usually look forward to the weekend but I'm not so sure this week.  I am going to my Daughter's presentation of her A Level certificates at the school tomorrow evening, and yes this is a good thing, but my 15 year old son asked if he could have a couple of mates around.  He must of caught me when I was in a good mood, obviously crafting, and I agreed.  Well what's a few friends hey, 3 or 4.  Well that's what I thought.  There are 15 of them coming round!!!!!!!  That's a party in my book!  Now he know's I'm a little OCD.  I like the housework to be all done and the house tidy at all times, can't leave the dishes, they have to be washed up, dried and all out of sight before we can sit down.  My hubby has already told me not to get freaked out when we get in, there will be mess but it will clean up.  I know they will be noisy, those that are staying, so little sleep and I don't do little sleep very well.  It will give the right hump on Saturday and being tired no crafting will be performed.  I guess as I'm expecting the worse I could end up being surprised.  Let's hope it's a good one.

Anyway, onto my card this evening.  I have coloured one of my Maggies, gorgeous isn't she and used my favourite blue.


I have coloured her using copics and shaded with my prisma pencil.

The backing paper are from the soon to be released Bearly Mine Christmas Dreams Digi Papers and the music one is from the Christmas Sparkle collection.   Here's a reminder of the Christmas Dreams papers to be released tomorrow, Friday 12th November.

This evening's card is a magnolia stamp, gorgeous isn't she.  The backing papers are from a CD that I purchased from Bearly Mine but just never got round to printing any out, why I don't know, guess I couldn't be asked to take the laptop upstairs to the printer.




I have coloured Tilda using copics and on the umbrella added star dust stickles.  Just noticed that the picture isn't terribly good so may have to do a re-take tomorrow.
