Birthday Wishes

I’m back today to share my latest creation for Midweek Magnolia. Our new challenge is… 

‘Shabby Chic or Vintage’. 

I’ve made this pretty card today using ‘Tilda with Rose Lace Dress' from Magnolia’s ‘Pink Lemonade’ Collection. 

My image has been stamped onto Cryogen White cardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I have coloured my image with Copic Markers in the following colours:

Hair & Shoes – W5, W3, W1, W00

Dress & Hat Ribbon – RV95, RV93, RV91

Here’s a close up of my image. 

I have sponges all the edges of my paper and cardstock, added some frantage to my image layer and sponged my die cut pieces. My paper is from the 'Vintage Autumn Basics' from Maja Designs. Some pretty lace, seam binding, flowers & pearls complete my card.

Hello Little Butterfly

It’s time for a new challenge over at ABC Challenges.

Our challenge for you today is

‘G is for Grand’

At first I wasn't too sure what I was going to make for this challenge. A bag, a tag.... Then I remembered that I wanted to make a Perpetual Calendar after seeing Norma's lovely creation here some time back. If you'd like to make one too Norma has done a tutorial which you will find here.  I actually turned Norma's instructions into cut files so I can cut them on my Silhouette with all my paper & card layers needed too. 

Here's is how mine turned out. 

I love the pretty colours in these papers from Kaisercraft's Sea Breeze Collection. 

I've used the gorgeous 'Hello Little Butterfly' image from Magnolia which is one of my all time favourites. I've stamped my image onto X-Press It Blending card using Rich Cocoa Memento Ink and coloured with my Copic Markers. 

The colour's I've used are: 

Skin - E11, E00, E000, R20

Hair & Boots - E57, E55, E53, E51

Clothes & Butterfly - BG72, BG70, C5, C3, C1, C00
