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.

Tilda Keyrings



Someone put the idea of shrinking Tilda into my head this morning and I couldn't resist having a go. One went straight on to my daughter's keyring and the pink one is for a friend at work who is also obsessed with Tilda and how cute she is.


Sketch Challenge 53


My second sketch challenge for the Card Positioning Systems Blog and as I had just received a circular stamp from an ebay purchase I decided to use it in this challenge. To be truthful I had forgotten that the challenge involved 'glitz and glitter' but luckily have used gold mirror card and sparkly paints anyway. The stamps are from a Wendy Rhodes sheet of unmounted stamps called the 'Art Nouveau Spring Collection'. I thought the stamps would lend themselves to being stamped in gold onto black. I've painted the images with Artquest Pearl Paints and matted and layered everything on to gold mirror card. In the end I think the card is okay but not over pleased with my results.
As usual my comment is 'It looks better in real life!!!'

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