Tanda Teaser-Butterfly Blue


Back from my holidays and really looking forward to doing some challenges again. This card is for the Tanda Teaser challenge which involved using the theme of butterflies and the colour blue in the design.


Great I thought I've got masses of butterfly stamps - spoilt for choice for this one. As it turned out I ended up using just one stamp with a verse on about butterflies and happiness. I stamped on to blue vellum, matted on to pearle card and then mounted on to some beautiful K&Co butterfly blue paper.


the butterfly in the corner is a peel off on the blue vellum - would have preferred to have stamped a butterfly but for some reason the stamping wasn't going too well on the vellum!!!

Shelley's birthday card


My youngest daughter is 20 on Wednesday - oh my goodness!!! I wanted to use one of my Tilda stamps and make something a bit different from all the Tilda cards I have done before. Hence the huge letter 'S' with printed 's' words scattered on it...
sexy

sensational

super

sunny and of course her name ...

Shelley.

And of course Tilda sitting on the swing part of the letter.
Fortunately she won't see this as she doesn't check out my blog. Will have to be more careful with her big sister's card in May as she does look in here (and leaves messages - yes you can have a keyring Laura!!!).

Time to sparkle


This is my effort for the new challenge blog - Tilda and Friend's ATC Challenges. The challenge was to make your ATC sparkle to celebrate the new blog.


Tilda has been stamped on shrink plastic (actually one of my practice ones from last week) and then mounted on to pink glitter card for that celebratory sparkle. Party fun and stars peel offs finish off the design.

Thank you so much to great friends who have become followers of my blog. Love having you around.
