Tulle Skirt Tilda Heart Easel Card and More Minis!

Have been wanting to do a heart shaped easel card for some time, so finally got around to doing it.  This is for the Magnolia-licious Highlites Challenge for February with the recipe being Hearts, Pink, White, Silver and Green if needed for leaves.  Even if we didn't want to make a valentine, this theme would still work for a wedding card too!

I used the adorable #210 Tulle Skirt Tilda.  Please let Diana know at Magnolia-licious if you are interested in getting her.  She is from the 2010 Wedding Collection.  Tilda is colored with ProMarkers and Touch pens and I used a variety of dies from Spellbinder, the scrolls and leaves on the bottom part are Marianne Design dies.  Also a couple of Punch Bunch punches were used for the flowers and leaves.  The embossing folder is a Tim Holz design and of course added white gel pen and pearls.  The Valentine sentiment was from JoAnn's from the $1 bin!  The colors on Tilda actually match better in real life then they show on the photo.  I've also used a metallic mirror silver for the hearts and scallop oval.

My husband's birthday is on Valentine's day, but I don't think I'm going to get by giving him this one!!!  Going to have to work on something in John Deere green I think!!!

Recently have been working on tags with some more of the mini images from Magnolia Mini World for Diana to take to CHA.   They have been so fun to do and really enjoyed doing them!  Loved doing the ones that can be used for Easter.  Check out Little Bunny Tilda and the little accessory images!!!  Sooooo cute!!!!

Land of Magnolia Book

This is a book I created for a contest that Diana was having at the Magnolia-licious US Store.  We had certain words that we needed to incorporate into the story, so that helped get some starting points.  It was so much fun to do the coloring and making up the story.  (Maybe this will help get me going on that Floral Punch book I've been thinking about for years!!!)    Was lucky enough to win 3rd place and a generous $100 gift certificate at the Magnolia-licious Store.  Didn't take long to spend that!!!
You can click on an image to get a larger picture if you want.  This little book ended up 110" long and was so fat, I had to create a belly band to hold it together.

Thanks for stopping by and as always so appreciate the comments!

Chasing Tilda

Used the lovely Miss Chasing Tilda from the Chasing Butterflies collection for a swap card.  You can find a terrific selection of Magnolia stamps here.

Most of my card making has always been flowers and scenery with a few cutesy things when I was in the Penny Black stage, so it surprises me how much I enjoy these little girls.  Think it brings me back to my childhood when I loved to color and play with paper dolls.  They always say as we get older, we revert back to being a child.   Guess I'm heading there!!!

Colored Tilda with Prismacolor Pencils and the odorless mineral spirits and used the Victoria Embossing Folder by Cuttlebug, the EK Success dotted wave border punch,  Martha Stewart branch punch and twig, flower 2 and sun punches from Punch Bunch.  Added some brads, ribbons and dot sparklers for a little shine.  Also used a glaze white gel pen for accent dots on her cheeks and on the dress.  Have been collecting charms for many years and finally remembered to use one of them.

This flower punch I think is my favorite one of all the flower punches.  Think it is because you can make it into such a nice ruffly flower and buds.

So appreciate the comments!!!  Thank you!!!  It is so nice to hear from people that have stopped by!

Pretty in Pink Challenge

Made up a card for a Pretty in Pink Challenge here.  Very simple flowers, but needed something in the corners!  Yup another Tilda colored with Prismacolor pencils and OMS (odorless mineral spirits)!!!

Supplies: Tilda with Hearts from the 2009 Valentine Collection, tiny heart, the ash leaf and branch punch from Punch Bunch, lotus flower from EK Success and the Martha Stewart Punch  Lattice border/corner set.  (Thanks PeeJay for letting me know which one it was!)    Also used a white Sakura Gel pen for some doodling on the dress, socks and flowers.

Check out all the Magnolia stamps at  Diana's store here.

Thanks for stopping by!!!   What is your favorite Tilda?

Tilda Steals your Heart!

Needed a card for a heart swap and still coloring Tilda's!!!  They are so fun.  Must bring me back to childhood with coloring and paper dolls!!!  This is Pink Tilda with Rose from the Pink Collection 2008 colored with Prismacolor Pencils and Odorless Mineral Spirts (OMS).  Altered her flower with a punch flower.  Punches used were Punch Bunch and EK Success.  Used the Cuttlebug corner dies and two Cuttlebug embossing folders plus the Spellbinders Nestabilities hearts!  Dew drops and Stickles for a little added something.

You can find a terrific selection of Magnolia stamps at Diana's Store here!

Thank you very much for the kind comments.  So appreciate it and inspires me to try harder!

Cross Stitched Tilda

Tried some pinks this time and yup, I cheated!!!  Had some Martha Stewart hydrangea sticker flowers that I had stashed away and decided to use them instead of make my own.

Colored with the Prismacolor pencils and OMS again.  Used the Spellbinders mega scallop rectangle, Cuttlebug With Love embossing folder border, Creative Memories corner punch and a 1/4" circle punch for faux brads.

Appreciate you stopping by and any comments you are kind to leave!

New Year's Tilda

Tilda's ready for a New Year's Birthday!

Used Spellbinder Oval and Fancy Tag dies, Cuttlebug Birds and Swirls embossing folder, Stampin' Up! Modern Label and Wide Oval punches and stamp (Warmest Regards set), Martha Stewart Hydrangea punch, Punch Bunch Ash Leaf punch, and colored with Prismacolor Pencils and OMS.

More Tilda's coming!  Thanks for dropping by!

Season's Greetings Tilda

Had to at least make one Holiday card with a Tilda image.  Used Prismacolor pencils with OMS on Tilda.  Spellbinder border and label dies, plus a Martha Stewart border punch, circle punches and holly punch by Punch Bunch.  Added a ribbon and a few rhinestones for bling.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all of you!

Sweet Angel

This is an adorable image from a marvelous children's book illustrator and author, Elizabeth O. Dulemba.  She generously offers fabulous coloring pages that work great as digi images for personal use only.  You can find her website here.   Be sure to read her angel policy to find out more.  Thank you Elizabeth for sharing your talents!!!

I used Stampin' Up! Shimmery White card stock.  The mat pink card stock is a beautiful piece with subtle shimmer roses.  Hard to see on the picture but it is gorgeous paper.  Sorry, don't know the brand name, but thanks to Angie who sent it from Aussie Land!!!  Used the Spellbinders Label 4, corner punch, Cuttlebug  Corner die and textile texture embossing folder.  Flowers and leaves are Punch Bunch, EK Success and Martha Stewart punches.  Colored with Prismacolor Pencils and OMS.  Sponged blue chalk over a cloud stencil for the angel background.  Used Crystal Effects on the eyes, halo and sleeve trim.  Accents of ribbon and pearls.

Now I should get back to working on Christmas cards!!!  Time is running out!

Thanks for stopping by and always appreciate any comments!!! 

Taken with Teal Tilda

Colored another cutie pie Tilda with Prismacolor Pencils and OMS!  Got a chance to use some other products too:  JustRite monogram frame and Hero Arts birthday wishes, Spellbinder circle dies, EK Success border punch, Martha Stewart border punch, Cuttlebug embossing folder border, and the Scorpal!  Can't see on the photo, but used a Stardust pen for highlights on Tilda.  Cardstock is Taken with Teal, Basic Black and white watercolor.

Glad you could stop by and so appreciate the comments!

Thank you!!!  It sure makes my day!

Lucky Me!!!

Tried my hand at Digital Images using Prismacolor Pencils and Gamsol (odorless mineral spirits).  I really like how the colors blend with the Gamsol.  Can't leave things flat, so popped up a JustRite stamp image and had to add just a few punched flowers.

Used an image I got through Mo's Digital Pencil Shop.  She is a child's book illustrator and writer and I love her cute characters.  They just draw out feelings!

Other Supplies:  Just Rite Font and Circle Border, Martha Stewart Botanical Scallop, Circle Nestabilities, Punch Bunch 3 Flower Corner Punch & Ash Leaf, Distress Ink-Antique Linen, Canson Water Color Paper
