A couple of cards

Hi all hope you're having a wonderful week so far. I wanted to post my Edwin card over here. Since poor Edwin hardly gets inked because face it we just love Tilda too much!

And also a reminder at Totally Tilda we have a fun challenge which is non-traditional Christmas Colours so no red, green or blue, I hope you'll join us!

Happy Halloween...

It seems like forever since one of us has posted here at the Steel Magnolia blog. So I thought I'd share my Halloween project with you. The web is super sparkly. I saw it at Michael's and knew immediately that Tilda would look adorable on it. I've added some spiders, a bat, a nice cheesecloth web and finished it off with some gorgeous black seam binding! Spooky! I have a few more photos here at my blog, Happy Haunting!

Pretty as a Princess...

Our theme this challenge over at Totally Tilda is Princess. You need to have a crown, princess Tilda or Princess sentiment. I was looking at Susie's diecut square one day and flipped it on its side and thought it looked like a tiara and my card transpired from there. I stamped swirls on the back in versamark and embossed in iridescent ice. The ticket stamp is from Lynne's Sentiments 4 You store. The beautiful lace was a gift from Trisha. I added Wild Orchid Crafts flowers, some shimmery ribbon and loads of pearls to finish it off.

Distressing at Totally Tilda..

Hi all, hope you've had a chance to pop over to the Totally Tilda blog for our distressing challenge. I love distressing! This is a fun one, and the prizes are always great! Here's my dt creation! There's more photos of my card at my blog here!

Tilda Gift set...

Hi everyone, hope you're having a great week. I wanted to share a gift tin and matching card set I made. I have a ton of these glade candle tins and love decorating them to accompany cards for gifts with flowers, ribbon, money, gift cards, etc... You can see a few more pictures at my blog here!

Fairytale Tilda...

Hope everyone is having a great weekend. Here's a card I made a few days ago and just won over at Magnolia down Under. I have to say I'm thrilled. I love entering their challenges and finally a win! I have used this image before when the lovely Susie send me some stamped copies, but I had to have her for myself. So this is the first time I have inked her. She is coloured with distress inks. Papers are Prima. flowers Wild Orchid and Prima. thanks for stopping by.

Wedding & Tags...

Hi all, hope you're all having a great day crafting away. I wanted to share a wedding card I made for the Magnolialicious Highlites challenge. And also remind you that over at Totally Tilda we have a great theme of Tilda on three tags. Hope you'll give it a try. I have more photos and info at my blog here.

Two cards to share...

Hi everyone, I have two Magnolia cards to share. These two are my newest. I wanted to make my cousin a card for her new baby so I used the adorable Tingla and one of Susie's gorgeous Die Cuts! I think it's kinda sweet! The other is my version of Tilda in a butterfly garden. The butterflies are cut from the dp, layered, and pearls and antennas addded. Thanks for taking a peek! You can see more photos at my blog here.

Love is in the air...

Hope everyone is having a great weekend! It's freezing here around -40. I had to laugh as a friend of mine said she loves a whole bunch of -40 days because then -20 feels like +15 so true! I used some warm reds to make myself feel less cold. This is my first time using this Tilda, I've had her in my stash for ages and totally forgot about her. The shaped die is available at the Die Cut Dreams Store. If you'd like more info visit my blog here!

Air Mail...

Hi everyone.... I have an ornament to share with you today and although it looks great on a Christmas tree, it can really be hung all year round since it's not too Christmassy. I gave Tilda a good coating of Crystal effects so she is very stiff and durable. I coloured with copics and printed off the Air Mail tag. Thanks for stopping by, don't forget to scroll up and down. You can see my other creations here!

Young Love...

Hi all, well I'm slowly getting out of Christmas card mode and into Spring/Summer wedding mode. I love this stamp I think it's so romantic and with Christmas just passing I'm sure there were a lot of engagements happening and I think this card fits both that and weddings! Thanks Wheeza for the heart doily, love it! Hope you're all having a great week. You can see more card info here!

Roses are red....

Hi everyone, I have another Christmas card to share with you. I love these two colours together and this Tilda is so beautiful, thanks Clairee1 The snowflake is from my Christmas tree it had a broken stem so I stuck that part behind the image and voila - reuse-recyle, love anytime I can salvage something. Head on over to the Totally Tilda blog where this weeks' theme is Ribbon and Roses. Happy New Year! you can visit me personal blog here.

Merry Christmas...

Wishing everyone a Happy Holiday Season and joy, love and peace in the New Year!

Two cards today...

Thought I'd share a couple cards today. I made both of these within the last few weeks.I am totally loving this sweet Tilda on a bauble. The flowers I pulled off an old arrangement and added stickles. I've coloured this image with copics and prismacolours.



Also a reminder that over at the DCD Christmas blog we have a great theme Christmas Carol. I coloured this Tilda with Prismacolours. If you'd like to see some of my newer Tilda Creations you can visit my blog here.
