Sketch and Stash Challenge 33

Hi all!!
A VERY late post from me today... I was determined to make sure I posted something, after I joked about it yesterday...
Its been a while since I joined in over at
Sketch and Stash
 So I've made a card today using Beckys FAB sketch...

I've used yet another Tilda... this one is new from the Fairytale collection... isn't she gorgeous?

I've coloured her with promarkers

chalked around her using a circle nestie as a template

then used a scalloped circle nestie as a template to doodle round the edge and added dots...

Card stock is stampin up

Papers are MME

Ribbon is very neglected American crafts...

Sentiment handwritten...

Thanks for looking

So to start with I have this lil lady to share with ya!

Got to say I'm falling in love with Tilda all over again... up until perhaps a month or so ago, I'd gotten a bit bored with her... don't know what it is at the moment, but I can't get enough!!

For this card I've followed the sketch at Midnight Madness...

Here it is...

60th Birthday Card... for 3 challenges..

Good Evening!!

Just popping on to share a card I made for my MIL's 60th Birthday, she has recieved it now, so its okay to show it...

it was a tricky one to make, as I wanted to avoid using a cute image, and make it pretty, but not too old fashioned, cos she's 'young at heart'...

Here it is...

 The papers are all MME Quite Contrary...

I handcut the numbers...

Flowers are all from hobbycraft..

Rest from stash...

as this is a really thick card, I had to make a box to match, but I forgot to photo it... doh!!

anyway, I'm entering this for the following challenges....

Totally Gorjuss Challenge - Texture

Allsorts Challenge - Petals & Pearls

My Time to Craft Challenge - Pretty Pearls

Thanks for looking!!

Sketch Saturday #97 Terrys DT week

I did hope to be full of MOJO this week, after my trip to the NEC...

Unfortunately I've had a couple of days feeling poorly, and loads of other stuff going on to keep me busy...

However, I took a bit of time out on Wednesday to make my Sketch Saturday DT card...

using almost ALL new goodies I bought from the NEC!!!

This week its Terrys turn to give Jo a break... and she's designed us a brilliant sketch to play with...

pop over to SS to see the fab sketch and the stunning work from the DT

Heres my card.... which is rather more girly than I usually make..

I ADORE this Tilda stamp... and was SO excited when I saw her for sale on the magnolia stand...

I've coloured her with promarkers and pencils...

The papers are the new MME Quite contrary... from the Hobby House stand...

Ribbon was also from the NEC, but I cant remember what stand...oops...

Button and pearls from stash...

Cardstock is stampin up and I stole the lil princess charm from Emma... (shhhh!)

oh, and the sentiment is hand scribbled...

Thanks for looking!!!
