Tilda had a little Lamb



Hi and happy Monday to you all ! I hope you have had an enjoyable weekend. I have had a great week actually, I am getting my backyard a complete make-over and it will be done tomorrow it looks so pretty. Lots going on around here with spring break, little league starting etc., so I have not been in my craft room to much lately I did find time yesterday to color this little cutie up and put together a card. This image is Tilda as a Shepherd and you can get her at Magnolia-licious, she seems to be out of stock at the moment but I am sure that Diana will order if you just get in touch with her. I am going to enter her in the sketch over at Midnight Madness-MMSC46

I have colored my image with Copics, DP is Cosmo Crickets Love Notes Wonderful. I have used the MS punch for the flower stems, flower is Prima. I cut the border on my wishblade. I used my Nesties Labels and did the out of bounds effect with Tilda. I have popped up the little lamb for some dimension and added stickles for a little bling.

I am taking the online Copic coloring classes from Suzanne Dean and I am really learning lots of good tips and techniques, so on this particular image I am showing the shading effect with the center lite source.

I think she will make a cute little Easter card. Thanks for coming by and have a great day.
Hugs,

Where do they live challenge ?????


Belles 'n Whistles is having a fun little challenge they wanna see all the different places that Belles 'n Whistles stamps reside. At my home they are actually not to far from where they are created. I live in the Southwest Desert of AZ in El Mirage. The beauty of the desert is just breath-taking. The lakes, cactus and the mountains just all come together put with a beautiful sunset can just make me appreciate the awesome wonder of our God. And as you can see they have lots of other little inky friends and are well looked after in my home as my Rottie "Nana" loves to lay and watch me craft and color. I hope you have enjoyed your peek into my little corner of the world.
Have a great day !

Dangling Tilda Tent Card


Happy Friday everyone ! I am so happy the weekend is here and it is not raining ! I am so ready for sunshine and all that good spring stuff, and to make it even more fun I am on vacation !!!!! Ok on to the card, I made this card for the sketch over at Just Magnolia I thought I had until today but oops last night was the cut off oh well I had fun making it anyway. Dena came up with this little idea and you can find the tutorial here. I have used Dangling Tilda, from the Raising the Ceiling collection, and she seems to be out of stock at the moment but I am sure if you email Diana at Magnolia-licious, she will get her in for you and don't forget if you join the Magnolia Yahoo group you get discounts on the stamps. I have colored my images with copics. The papers are some I just had laying around and the border is cut from my wishblade.

A couple of challenges I will enter this little card in
Paper Cutz Challenge #32 - anything goes
Cupcake Craft Challenges #81 -flower power
Magnolia Down under Challenge blog - # papers, 3 flowers, 2 buttons, 1 bow ...I hope I am not late on this one.
Thanks for stopping by have a great week !
Hugs,
