Magnolia Tilda with Fantasy Flowers

Good Afternoon Blogger Friends.

It feels so good to at last, be back with a card. The craft room doors were closed a little longer than I expected.

 

I hope you all had a lovely Christmas and Happy New Year to you.

 

I have a card to show you today which I have made specifically for The Ribbon Girl DT call. I don't suppose I stand a chance but you have to be in it to win it as the saying goes.

 

I have used Magnolia Tilda with Fantasy Flowers. I had lots of fun with this card.

The base for this card has been cut from a Dutch Doobadoo stencil.

 

A product list with a link to the online stores are at the bottom of this post.

 

 

I have coloured the dress with an Inktense Pencil - Crimson and deepened the shadows with Distress Marker in Aged Mahogany.

The rest of Tilda has been coloured using Distress Markers. I love the effect of Gesso but have used it sparingly. I will no doubt use more when I have mastered the technique.

 

 

The ribbon is from The Ribbon Girl - so soft and shiny and nearly too gorgeous to use!!!

 

I have use two new dies on this card from Noor Design - the 8 point die and Flourish Leaf.

 

The sentiment is from Lili of the Valley.

 

 

I had added pearls and this fabulous butterfly amongst the flowers.

 

 

Lots of photo's today. Sorry but I wanted to capture all the various products used.

A card and an I wonder if...

Good morning blogger friends.

Hope you are all well and are feeling relaxed after the weekend.

My card is below but first I would like to ask if anyone would like to sponsor me. 

On Friday evening I am doing an 8 mile sponsored walk to raise money for Lindsey Lodge Hospice who took care of a dear friend Steph,  who lost his battle with Cancer last year. I wondered if any of my crafty friends would like to make a donation, however small, to Lindsey Lodge. All money raised will go directly to the hospice and it can be as little as a pound as each and every pound makes a difference.

As many of you will sadly know, patients and their loved ones benefit from Hospices care free of charge and any money raised for them is  gratefully received. The walk is not going to be easy for many of us but team Miemczyk are a determined bunch of people.

The link to the just giving site is below.

Just Giving

It seems ages since I have had the chance to have a good old blogging session but I am going to rectify that today. The wedding invites have been picked up by the bride to be and with a sigh of relief - she loved them.
I promise, this will be the last time I use Tilda with Fantasy Flowers for a while as my other stamps are getting very neglected and that won't do.

She has been coloured using Distress Markers. Frantage has been added to the top mat and the butterfly die.

The flowers are from LLC and WOC. The product list with a link to the online shops is at the bottom of the post. 

The lace with a blog candy win so I could not link that. 

I am gong to have my breakfast now and then I will be doing some serious blogging!!!
