Distressed Tilda

This weeks challenge over at Tilda and Co challenge site was to Make her Distressed looking, a little rough around the edges, a bit of grungy!
So stay clear of these cute pastel colours if you can help it and get down and dirty with Tilda!


Was difficult for me to do as i love pastel colours.The image is one from the shabby chic collection. I have used HOTP papers and layered them with coordinating card stock, flowers from my stash. The corners are Cuttlebug vintage corners, embossing done with embossing folders. The greeting stamp is from Autumn leaves (kindly stamped for me by Gail)

Precious Moments

I am sorry it has been some time since i have posted any cards, in fact a whole week. I think my mojo went on a mini break, hopefully its back now :) Although must say its taken me some time to make 2 cards today. This sketch is from the Papertake Weekly challenge and was designed by Katharina, who makes some fab cards.
The image is a Precious Moments peel off sticker mounted onto white card and layered onto a lilac circle. The embossing was done with Swiss dots cuttlebug folder and the embossing at the bottom was done with the a cuttlebug embossing border, i love using these they add such a nice detail. The ribbon is from my stash and the greeting is a hero arts stamp.

25th Anniversary Card

This card i made a while ago but wanted to post in my blog for Jacqui to look at as she is making a 25th Anniversary card and i tried to explain how i had made mine. So here you go- I embossed card through the Cuttlebug with the swiss dots folder, then scored either side with score board. The heart was cut on the Cricut, one in silver and the other in white, which i think embossed with the bird embossing folder. I added silver heart peel offs and the 25 was cut on the cuttlebug using sizzlet dies. Very easy to do, but very effective. The greeting was done on the computer, before i started the embossing. (sorry those who have seen this before)
