Tilda with a Daisy

Hi again.  Today I'm sharing an easel card I made with a color combo that I'm drawn to lately.  I just love this turquoise and yellow combination.




She's colored with Copics and my papers are MME.  The flowers are Recollections and I got the wrinkled ribbon on Etsy.  The rhinestones, button, and twine are from my stash, and the pin is handmade by....ME!  They are my latest favorite thing.  I spent a couple of hours one night watching a movie and making pins.  Love, love, love 'em!

Challenges:

Crafty Catz  - Stripes or checks
Sketch Saturday - Sketch
7 Kids College Fund  - Make it Cute!
Magnolia Stamp Lovers - Stitching
Creative Inspirations  - Anything Goes
Scrap-Creations  - It's a Girl Thing!

Don't forget there is still time to enter the "YELLOWS" challenge over at the CMC Copic Challenge Group.  Color using your favorite yellow combination.  How hard is that?  Not very.  We'd love to have you join!

Thanks for stopping by today!  Enjoy the rest of your week.

Tilda with the Butterflies

I was asked to make a few more of these easel notepad cards and wanted to share with you.  This is one using another of my Tilda stamps.



Of course I have colored her using my Copics.  The papers are from Prima.  The flowers are a combination of Wild Orchid Crafts and Recollections.  The rhinestones and lace are from my LCS and I used one of my MS punches for the leaves. 

Challenges:

Totally Tilda - Stitching
Simon Says Stamp - Sketch
Wild Orchid - Spring is in the Air

Love...

Happy Monday to you!  Today I'm sharing a card that I made for my hubby for our anniversary.  I like that it was quick and other than a bit of bling (I had to put SOMETHING in that corner), fairly manly.


Short and sweet, right?  The sentiment is from Rain Drop Echo and the wonderful papers are from Prima.  I ran each of the layers through my sewing machine.  I got the lace and rhinestones from my LCS. 

Challenges:

Totally Scrumptious - Sketch
Stampin' for the Weekend - Sparkle and shine
Wags 'n Whiskers  - Anything Goes
Stamptacular Sunday - Loaded with Layers
One Crazy Stamper - Boy/Man

Thanks for stopping by and have a great week!

He Comes "Bear"ing Flowers

Hi there everyone.  I hope this Wednesday is treating you well.  We got some storms and rain here, but we need it so I won't complain.  I've got a stamp that I'm embarrassed to say that I've had over a year and FINALLY got around to inking it up.  After coloring him (which took me no time at all) I don't know why I didn't use this stamp sooner.


This cute fella is from Motivet and I colored him with my Copics.  I just love how these papers from 7 Gypsies look with this guy; great colors, right?  The ribbon is from my LSS and the brads are from my stash.  The sentiment is from Lili of the Valley stamped with some Colorbox ink.  Alas, there are no Stickles on this card...shocker!  Don't worry I'm sure I'll make up for it soon.

Challenges:

Stampin' for the Weekend - Ready Teddy Go!
A Gem of a Challenge - Sketch
Papertake Weekly - A Stitch in Time
Pollycraft - Cute Critters
