Tilda with Big Tulips

Hello friends.

Hope you are all having a good week. Russ has gone to the NEC this evening to take down the stands from an exhibition for his works so I am having a relaxing evening on my todd. I have made some soup with my new Soup maker (Tomato and Red Pepper) - delicious. Later on I am going to watch Salmon Fishing in the Yemen. Has anybody watched it? All this will be washed down with a lovely bottle of red wine. I do know how to look after myself!!!

For my card today I have used Tilda with Big Tulips - this has to be one of my favourite stamps.

A full product listing with links to the supplier will be at the end of this post. If I have missed anything and you would like to know details, please just ask.

I am really not happy with my photos. I used to use PhotoScape but after having problems with 2 of my laptops (needing new hardrive) I am so reluctant to download it again in case it was this that caused the problems. I don't think for a minute it was but I daren't take any chances. Has anyone had any problems with Photoscape just to reassure me.

I have coloured her with my Distress markers my favourite colour Victorian Velvet.

          

The flowers are a mixture from Live and Love Crafts and WOC. The sparkly embellishment is from The Hobby House.

 I have added a love heart metal embellishment on the bottom right from Live and Love Crafts and added Frantage to it. Love these.

 The butterfly is from Joy Crafts - I have cut this and used just one of the butterflies on the right and one behind the flowers on the left.

Tilda with wrapped heart.

Good evening friends.

I hope you are all well and fitting in some crafty time.

I must apologise again for not getting round to your blogs as often as I would have liked but as I mentioned in an earlier post, I have been getting ready for a craft fair which was on Saturday. I didn't do as well as I would have liked though the organisers said the footfall was far less than in previous years. I did make my money back on the cost of  hiring the table and a bit more for some crafty goodies. Well, I have been wanting the Magnolia Doo Hickey Heart die for such a long time and I deserved a treat after all my hard work!!!

I have some photos at the end of this post of the gorgeous Evie.

Today I am showing you a card I made with Tilda with Wrapped Heart.

I will put a list of all the products used at the end of this post.

I have coloured Tilda with Distress Markers and added Frantage to the matting die and butterfly.

I originally masked Tilda before stamping the Magnolia Heart stamp but I stamped it wonky so I had to cut Tilda out and add her after I stamped the Heart wording. Thankfully she was pretty easy to cut out.  

The flowers are from WOC and Live and Love crafts.

Now for the gorgeous Evie Maie. She is now 4 months old and weighs nearly 9lb.

She will love the bottom photo on her 21st!!!

Good Morning lovely blogger friends.

I hope you are all well and enjoying your week. I want to apologise for my absence in blogland. I have a craft fair on Saturday and I am spending every minute I can preparing for it. Hopefully by Friday evening I will be organised and able to visit your wonderful blogs.

Today sees the start of a new challenge at Diva's by Design. The theme this week is vintage with lace and we are being sponsored by Live and Love Crafts - I love this store. Please head over and join in this fab challenge - would be lovely to see your there,

I must apologise for the photo's. I don't know if I need to change my glasses, or camera,  but the photo's seem to be blurred.

I have used Magnolias adorable Fairytale Wishes.

A product list with suppliers will be at the bottom of this post.

I have coloured her with Distress Markers. Either she is blushing or I have gone a bit mad with the pink colour.

The cluster flowers in white and pink on the right side of the card are from out sponsor Live and Love Crafts as is the lace. The rest of the flowers are from WOC.

The Frantage on the butterflies is also from Live and Love Crafts.

Love Sharon. Xxx

Baby Card.

Good evening lovely friends.

Sorry about the error I made earlier. I went to save my post and clicked publish instead, hence you would not be able to see anything. What a dope!!!

As I was going to say firstly in my previous post, a very warm welcome to my latest followers. I am thrilled you like it here and will look forward to your visits.

I have made a second baby card so that my friend has a choice of which card she would like when her daughter has her baby, which should be any day now.

I have used another of LOTV's adorable baby stamps Cosy Pram. I am trying so hard not to take advantage of LOTV's 48 hr sale - you can purchase 3 of their stamps for £10. So so tempting.

You will find a link to all the products used at the bottom of this post.

As is my usual colouring medium at the moment I have used Distress Markers. Love, love love them and would dearly love to go on a colouring course as I still could improve no end.

When I remember which manufacturer I purchased the border die from I will add it to my products list.

The large rose is from the Range but I cannot find a link to it.

A few close ups of the card.

I have added a touch of sparkle to the blanket and pram hood with Diamond Sparkles.

The pearl string is available from The Hobby House.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges

A Creative Romance - Sketch

Make it Monday - Anything goes

Wild Orchid Challenge - photo inspiration

Addicted to Stamps - Flowers

The Hobby House - Ribbon (Hobby House String pearls)

I am going to have a lovely catch up with you lovely people whilst Russ watches the Everton match. To be truthful we are watching it in the pub and I have a lovely bottle of wine to accompany a steak. See you in a while blogging buddies - isn't Wi Fi a wonderful thing. Cheers!!! 

Big hugs

Sharon. x
