Tilda's Town Challenge #8

Happy Friday everyone!

It's time for challenge # 8 over at Tilda's Town.
This week we ask you to 

Show us your favorite Tilda! 

Fun challenge, right?! I certainly had lots of fun coloring my favourite Tilda, and putting this card together.

 Link up here for a chance to win a $15 Gift Certificate to Tilda’s Town online Magnolia store,with your Magnolia creation, remember you have to use Tilda stamp this time! 

Pop over to the challenge blog to be inspired by the wonderful creations of the DT and to join us in the fun!

Here's my card: 

I used papers from the lovely Maja Designs Vintage Summer basic. I also used Magnolia Doohickey's: So wrapped lovely (heart) and Heart swirl. On the edge of the image I used the swirly lace (also doohickey's). I used Mulberry flowers, and pearls on string from Kort og Godt, cheese cloth, lace and charms from stash. The sentiment stamp is from Whimsey stamps, the postmark stamp is from Kort og godt. I distressed the edges with vintage photo distress ink and used my sewing machine. i also put some corrugated cardboard in there!

I colored my sweet sweet Tilda with floating hearts from the Prince and Princess collection with distress ink pads. I'm having lots of fun practicing coloring with distress inks! I love it because it's so much softer than copics. (don't get me wrong, I love my Copics too...lol!)

 Here's a closeup of some of the details.

And finally, the card again!

Wishing you a wonderful weekend! Don't forget to ink up and play along with us in Tilda's Town!

Magnolia Mania GDT- Doorplate

Happy tuesday, crafters.

Today I want to show you what I made for my forth time as a Guest Designer for the Magnolia Mania Challenge . This weeks theme is to create a doorplate. Pop over to the blog to join in the challenge this fortnight.

I chose to use something other than paper to for my project. Actually my 5 year old daughter helped both collecting the material (last year) and choosing the stamps representing each one of us in our little family. We had lots of fun with this! (Although she kept asking me why Tilda and Edwin haven't got mouths...)

I created the plate using some peaces of driftwood. We collected those on the beach near our summer house last year (because you never know what you might need some day, right!) Same thing with the mussel shells. I glued three pieces together in layers to shape the doorplate, and added some flowers, lace, thickers and the stamps.  The word means "welcome" in Norwegian.

The three stamps are Tilda sending loveletter, Tilda with floating hearts and Surf Edwin. I colored the images with my copics. I wrote the names on small pieces of white Bazzil and distressed the edges. That's it. Lots of glue, lucky for me I have a glue gun... lol.

Hope you're inspired to make your own doorplate for the challenge, if you need more inspiration, hurry over to the Magnolia Mania blog to see the DT- creations!

Have a good week!

Bingo and Yellows

I've been playing with my yellow copics today.  For the bingo challenge at TOMIC, i chose Yellow- pearls- shaped card (no squares or rectangles). For this weeks Midweek Magnolias the challenge was to make a monochrome card. So I tried to combine the two.  I also got to color this very cute little Tilda for the first time- loved it!

Here's the card:

I used papers from Prima, Quick cutz dies (circle and swirl), flowers and butterfly from iamroses.com, pearls and lace from stash. Tim Holtz distress ink (vintage photo) for distressing the edges. And finally my sewing machine.

Here's my lovely little Tilda. I colored her with copics. Hair: E44-42-41, Skin: E13-11-00-000, suit: YR24-23, Y21, blender, Wings and shoes: C3-1-00. Hearts RV93-91, V000

Some Yellow details. Flowers and lace.

More details- the paper is actually yellow, even if it looks kind of green in the pictures.

I made a step card, this is what it looks like folded.

Hope you like it!

Thanks for stopping by!
