A pink Tilda and paper flower

I made this card a few days ago and I have altered it from the original.
I haven't been feeling so good the last few days with a bad head cold.
I decided to have a play with my Sizzix Bigz Daisy die and made flowers that (hopefully) resemble a Gerbera (one of my favorite flowers).
I cut the card using the dieand using a mouse mat and an embossing tool I give some texture to the petals to make them more realistic.
Some Gerberas seem to be varigated and some solid colour so I have inked this one.
I have made some more and hope to make some more cards in the next few days.
Papers from K&CO (Sparkly Sweet).
Finished with card candy.

Cute Tilda

Another card I have made for the school summer fair (this is only the 2nd Tilda card I have made for the school fair).
The papers I have used have all been printed from the Canon scrapbooking website (lots of lovely freebies including origami papers).
Tilda was coloured in with a combination of regular and watercolour pencils and mounted on gold mirror card (which always seems to scan black).
If anyone knows how to get mirror card to scan the right colour and not black please let me know lol

A Tilda Tag

I covered my tag in alcohol inks, then painted over perfect pearls to give a shimmer,I then stamped the tilda and phrase (rubberneckers) I then used my gold metallic mixative and put quite a lot of that over the top. The flower was cut from mountboard with my Bigz Daisy Die and dabbed with the same alcohol ink and gold mixative then stamped over with the phrase stamp. The top of the flower has been finished with crackle accents and some self adhesive ribbon coloured with wild plum adirondack ink. The edges of the tag have been distressed and then inked with wild plum again.
The picture comes up darker than the actual colour.

New Tilda Cards

I got myself another Tilda Card at Ally Pally yesterday, I decided to try 2 different colour schemes so went for pinks & blues.
I still haven't found my fav watercolour pencils so having to use my daughter's instead.
I have also used some shimmer paper on each card, I thought it would make a change from mirror or pearlescent card (and it seems to scan better too).
Sorry I still havent cleaned the scanner.

Yet another Tilda Card

I promise this will be the last Tilda card of a while lol
I used 2 colours of adirondack ink pads applied with a sponge.
Image has been stamped on plain cream card then in coloured pearlescent card and cut out over the top. Just thought I would have a play see how it looked.
Card has been finished with some ribbon which I have inked to match. The flower is cut from a large Sizzix Daisy Die and finished with one of my bargain designer brads.

Another Tilda Card

It's my oldest daughter's 11th birthday this Saturday. I'm not sure where the time has gone, my baby came into the world not making a sound or a movement weighing 10lb 12oz now she is turning into a young lady who is mad on her Tv soaps, loves make up and thinks Leona Lewis is the best thing ever.
Anyway she may be growing up but she loves Tilda so I had to put her on the card.
Got some bargains today 12 designer brads (one used), 2 large packs of handmade papers, 8 large cards with matching envelopes, stickers, all for just 1 pound each (AB Superstores in Ealing near Christchurch if you are in the area lol).
Apart from the gems in each corner, the tag and the tilda stamp the rest is from todays bargains. Just coloured the card with some adirondack ink (raspberry from the brights) using a make up sponge and the rest you can gather.
Anyway Happy Easter to all and Happy Birthday to Kathryn.

My First Tilda

I have been without an internet connection for a whole week...and what a long week it was, it's amazing how much we have come to rely on the internet for so many things. I was so happy to see that little green light on my router this morning.
Anyway just a few days before we lost contact with the outside world I ordered my first Tilda Stamp and have been having a play.
My darling daughters always ask me to make cards for classmates so when my oldest asked me to do a card for her best friend out came Tilda.
My craft stash is a mess at the moment and I couldn't find my pencils so I had to make to with borrowing the girls (in return for me giving them a pile of tilda stamped images for them to colour in)
So here it is my first tilda card, I have 2 more made ready for the next girly birthdays,
