Aussie Tilda!

Hi lovelies!! hope you are all well. It is really horrible here today, the rain is just pouring down, so much the great weather we had been having, typical british weather! I hope it brightens up for the weekend.

I have my card that I made for the MDUC. I must admit when I saw the theme last saturday night, I kinda freaked out, this is so not my colour combo and Its taken me nearly all week to figure it out. But thats the whole point of challenges, they are meant to take you out of your comfort zone.

I have used Australian Tilda, this stamp was given to by my lovely friend Sara for my birthday, thank you sweetie xxx

I am entering this into the following challenges

MDUC - colour combo, red, purple and yellow

Simon Says Stamp - anything goes

Midweek Magnolias - bling it on

I will be back tomorrow at 3pm (GMT) with my DT card for Tildas Town. I also have some great news to share and I have my 1st blogaversary candy too.

Evening lovelies, I am here with a very quick post with a card to share. But first I just wanted to explain why I havent been around much or visiting your blogs. My computer decided uts antivirus was gonna kick some butt last wednesday!!! it took it upon its self to decide that every blog, including mine was a malicious site and could not be viewed!! so there have have been some ongoing battles with the computer. Its been working ok today so fingers crossed we have solved the problem. I will try and visit you all as soon as I can ;o)

ok so onto my card, I have made this to remind you that there is a new challenge over at Tildas Town, and you still have a couple of days left to enter. The theme is WATER FUN!

so lets see all those lovely water themed cards, perfect excuse to ink up the newest stamps and some of the oldies also.

Hope you can join us.

The next challenge will be announced at 3pm (GMT) on Friday

Hi everyone, I have been trying to get this card finished all day, but I kept getting distracted with the lovely weather! I have been out playing in the garden with the kids, chatting to neighbours and doing some weeding in my small bit of garden, helped along by my westie Bobby! not!! lol

anyway on to why I am here, I have another tilda card to share, I was making this one for both the MDUC, which was to make your own embellishments, and for the challenge and dt call over at midweek magnolias.

The embellishments that I have made are the pink butterflies made from rose trim, well I hope they look like butterflies to you, my hubby said they looked like flowers! huh!! men

I found a video on you tube showing how they were made but now I cant find it to give the link, I will check again later.

Well what do you think? do they look like butterflies, I think so, maybe not 100% perfect but getting there

I am entering this card into the following challenges

MDUC - make your own embellishment

midweek magnolias - dt call and romantic and chic challenge

deep ocean challenge - swirls

bunny zoes - anything goes

Simply magnolia - pearls and lace
