Hi guys,

I hope that this will post as after my computer got a load of rubbish on it from the internet we went out and bought a flippin expensive protection thing for it and this morning it won't let me send any mail, so much for modern technology!

I started out making a card for my Totally Tilda creation which this time is 

Tilda with cat or dog

and I finished up changing it into a wall hanger lol,

I have again done my out of the box design he he and have also used my fiskars border  punch again,

I have used 4 images and masked three of them, Tilda with puppy, the log, the flowers are all masked then I stamped the main doggy sorry don't know what he's called but isn't he cute! coloured them with Distress inks and  added my large dog  after, again outside the main square, similar to my last post,

to finish it off there are hints of glitter some distressed cardstock, bling, pearls, raffia twine  and a gorgeous prima butterfly,

Tilda's from around the world

Hi guy's

I wrote this last night after a day of gorgeous sunshine! it was really hot and hardly a cloud in the sky, so in case we have some more tomorrow I've got in front,

of course it's time for the Totally Tilda challenge and this time we want to see our Tild'as from different parts of the world, as you will see from the lovely DT cards their are some gorgeous Tilda's out there from all over, so get yours out and join us,

I've used one of the  Japanese Tilda's which I've coloured in soft peach and cream to go with my papers, yes I've used those papers again!!!

again it's coloured with Copics, I'm going to have forgotten how to use my Distress Inks soon lol,

I've used my fan embellishments and some gorgeous paper flowers which I just added a pearl in the centre as I thought it made them look like oriental blossom, the coin is from stash I've had for years,the butterfly is of course a Martha Stewart punch,

I layered two strips of ribbon top and bottom of my middle paper strip but you have to hunt to see it lol,

I had a go at black hair, but boy is it hard to do,and you have to be careful when photographing  as it can look blue lol,

Challenges

Anything goes ~ Pearls

Crafty Calendar ~ May flowers

well I hope your all having a gorgeous weekend too, with lovely weather and having fun!
I will see you soon, Love and hugs liz xx

Edited to add
Pixie Cottage ~ Sparkle

You've got style

Hi guys,

well my craft room's all sorted, bits and bobs in there right place, my stubbed toe has got a lovely purple bruise on it but it's not as sore now thank fully, lol

well it's time for the Totally Tilda Challenge, which this time is to use chipboard some where on your creation,

I love this Tilda as I think she's so adaptable for any woman's card as most girls like to shop right, well to be honest I know a few who don't but hey who's counting lol,

I finished up giving this to Kay for her Birthday as she needed to get some maternity clothes and it was her Birthday on Friday, to be honest she doesn't like clothes shopping much either but needs must lol,

She's coloured with Distress inks and the papers were a frebbie from a craft mag, all the edges are machine sewn, distressed and on the main paper I've distressed the edges on top  with crackle paint,

the chipboard tag I  coloured  with Distress ink then added the same crackle paint around the edges, the sentiment is a rub on,

The gorgeous hanger charm was from Susies die cut shop but it's closed at the moment while she moves but as soon as she's open again I'll let you know, as I need to order from her as well !!!

can you make out my painted background too, tried to look like sky, ground and air in between has it worked? lol

Challenges

Daring cardmakers ~ Home baked ~ create your own embellishment, well I tweaked my tag, sorry if it doesn't quite fit the challenge,

Fun with shapes ~ Happy Birthday

Crazy challenge ~ Lovely Ladies
