Craft Heaven and TOMIC DT - Summer Days

Good evening!  I can't believe it has been a month since my last post!  I have been so busy lately and creating a lot of things behind the scenes which I will be showing you shortly.  Today I have a card for Craft Heaven Shop and also as a remind for our TOMIC challenge that runs all summer.  I have used the gorgeous Maja Design Summertime paper pad.  All of the papers in this collection are so beautiful it is hard to chose what to use!

I have painted Lazy Day Tilda from the Pool Party collection with Distress Inks using the no lines technique.  I have also used the postmark stamp from the With Love From Paris stamp collection at the side of the image.

The strawberries were made with Maja papers and the Magnolia Strawberry die and the flowers and lace are from Craft Heaven.

The ice-cream was also cut with a Magnolia doohickey and I've topped it with strawberries cut from one of the Maja Design papers.

I hope you like it and thanks for looking! x

Craft Heaven DT - Sunny Days Tilda

Good morning!  I really need to start making Christmas cards but I couldn't resist using the last Pool Party stamp I bought before I start on them.

I painted Sunny Days Tilda with Distress Inks as always and added some details to the sea, sand and cocktail umbrella with a white gel pen.  The little clouds were cut with a die from Doohickey Volume 9.

I made all of the flowers myself for this card.  The rolled roses were made from the gorgeous Maja Design Sofiero paper and the large white ones were made from silk foam and the Magnolia Peony Petals die. 

The Swirl was cut with a die from Doohickey Volume 7 and the ribbon tags were cut from some ribbon from my stash.

The tab on top of the image was cut with the recipe tab from the Recipe Card Collection and I used the Scalloped Tag for the tags.

I hope you like it and thanks for looking!

All About Magnolia DT - Anything Goes

Good morning!  We are back after our summer break at All About Magnolia Challenge and our theme is 'Anything Goes'.  I'm still reminiscing about the glorious summer we had this year with today's card.

I have painted the stunning Toes in the Sand Tilda from the Pool Party Collection with Distress Inks.  I've also used a couple of Distress Ink markers to add details to the sand and Stickles to make her drink sparkle.

The gorgeous lace is from Craft Heaven and the sentiment die cut by Cut & Make which is just perfect this image.

I cut a couple of pennant flags from the pennants Doohickey from Volume 14 and used the Tilda's Ticket Doohickey for the tags.

The flip flop charm is from Craft Heaven and the cord I recycled from a clothes label.

I love it when you can use Doohickey dies for something other than their original design.  I used the Tower Doohickey to create the sandcastles by cutting it four times and then slicing the top off at different heights.  I used another pennant flag to top the sandcastle.

I hope you like it and can join us this month at All About Magnolia.  Thanks for looking!

Summer Vibes

 Good evening!  What a gorgeous summer we're having here in the UK!  This Lazy Day Tilda from the Poop Party collection is perfect to represent this summer!  I love the huge sun hats on the Tildas in this collection.

 I painted Tilda with Distress Inks using the no lines technique as always.  I also painted a little beach and scene around her.

 I added some flowers and lace from my stash.  The papers are by Maja Design.

 I used the Lovely Umbrella Doohickey to make a parasol for Tilda and some pennants using a die from Afternoon Tea Doohickey Kit Volume 14.

 The Summer Vibes sentiment is also from the Pool Party Collection.

 The cute flip flops Doohickey from Volume 1 are also perfect for a beach card.

I hope you like it and thanks for looking! x
