Tilda & Co Template Challenge

As promised, I'm back with a card to show. We're all showered and dressed and Sam is ready to go to a bowling party so thought I would quickly post this card. It's not like me to complete this challenge so early.....I usually leave it to last thing Saturday night/Sunday morning lol!!
The challenge this week on Tilda & Co is a sketch challenge.....they have some candy on offer this week so well worth a look. Here's the sketch.....



......and here's my interpretation of it.......

I've coloured Tilda with Prismas and Sansodor and added glamour dust to her wings, petticoat and flower in her hair. I then cut her out and fixed her with foam pads to the background which I made with my Nestabilities small rectangles and Bazzill c.s. Have used Bazzill c.s. again for the background together with paper from the Papermania Venetian Skies pad. The strips at the top are again Navy Bazzill c.s. with Doodlebug rub-ons and flower eyelets from my stash. The flowers are also from my stash with a Laura Ashley big brad in the centre.

Stamp Something Red, White and Blue!

Hi everyone! Sorry I haven't posted anything for a little while but life has been so hectic and I have been finding it very difficult to get inspired to make anything. However, it's Friday which means it's time for the Stamp Something challenge and this week the very talented Melissa has set it! The challenge this week is a two parter - to create something in red, white and blue, and have it be ANYTHING BUT A CARD! This challenge is based on the fact that it's Independence Day in the States very soon so I have taken my inspiration from the Stars and Stripes, plus Lewis, my eldest Son, has been nagging me for ages to make him a book so this is what I came up with..... I've used my Bind It All to make the actual book and covered it with Pink Petticoat papers printed onto lightweight card and stuck some Doodlebug ribbon across the join. The image is Magnolia (which was a RAK from someone) and I've coloured him with Prismas and Sansodor adding Glamour Dust to his...
