Snowflake Frost For Tilda



































So many parts of the US are getting hit hard with lots of snow and ice.
I pray for their safety and warmth.

We had a cold snap last week and it was in the teens at night a couple times.
But we have warmed up a bit now, even though it is still cold out.

I enjoyed making this Tilda card and using fun embellishments.
I colored Tilda with Copic pens, used a SU tree image stamp for
the background.

Pearls, ribbon, glitter trim at the top & bottom, glitter leaves and
flowers and stick pin all from my stash.

I used glitter glue on Tilda's fur trims and wings to add some sparkle.

Altogether a fun card, I have to laugh, I think I end up with more glitter
on me than I do the card, LOL.

I will enter this card in these challenges:

Magnolia Down Under Challenge ~ Anythng Goes

Magnolia-licious Challenge ~ Anything Goes

Midweek Magnolias ~ White Christmas

Totally Tilda Challenge ~ Anything Goes

Wishing you all a great upcoming week. Even though it is a busy time of year,
may you find some relaxing time to stamp. Hugs to all.
Blessings, Doreen

Tilda In The Snow

 
 
 




































They say we are having cold weather heading our way, so what a better way to spend a day and that is to make some fun cards.
I am going to be making some sets of Birthday cards to use as gifts. So me and my hot chocolate will move to my hobby room and see what we can come up with.

Tilda is all bundled up and is carrying a silver bell. With her fun SU snowmen in the background.

I colored with Copic pens, used Opac glitter glue to enhance the bell and fur on the coat and hat.

Oval Spellbinder scalloped in blue CS and white with HA stamped snow flakes. Flowers  from WOC.
Stick pin made with beads from my sister's stash.
White braid trim, silver leaves and rhinestones from my stash.

Angel Tilda







































Greetings everyone, once again my
computer is home from a major
repair time.
It is horrible being off line.

But I used my time in making some
fun cards.

This card features Angel Tilda colored
with Copic pens, C00, C02 in a white on
white setting enhanced with silver
rhinestones & leaves.

I used opac glitter glue on Tilda's wings. 
White pearls and also some lace with
sparkle netting.

I made the stick pins and also used my
Spellbinder scalloped circle and
name tag.

I always find it a challenge to use
white on white but fun just the same.

Hope you like this card. I am trying to
go for the Wow effect on my cards, so hope
I am improving.

Harvest Time

 
 
 



























Greetings, everyone.  I have been off my blog beat for a few months and now excited to return making some fun cards to share.

Fall is here and it is fun to go to the farms for wonderful produce and yummy goodies too.

Harvest time is a colorful time of year. With many events to go to.

I love this verse:
We give thanks to God
the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
praying always for you.
Colossians 1:3

Prayer time is special and gives us strength and peace.

On my card I used a Cuttlebug folder of wood grain impressions. I mounted it on SU Chocolate Chip cs. And used a stipple brush to add color to the wood grain with the same  color.
Flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts. All other items from my stash.

I am entering this card in :

Twist Of Faith ~ Harvest

Many thanks for visiting me and I look forward to getting back in the swing of things again.
Blessings to all
Doreen
