"Magnolia Down Under Challenge #74"

Here is my submission for the Magnolia Down Under Challenge Blog. The challenge this week is SUMMER which is a nice break from all those Christmas cards I've been making.

I absolutely love this Tilda. She reminds me of me when I was much younger and I rode my bike everywhere.

I used an older paper pack from my stash of Deja Views. This paper speaks summer to me with all the greens, blues and flowers. I also stitched around the pattern paper which is something I don't do often but I love the look. And I made the light green rosebuds with a couple of punches from the same color cardstock to match.

"Challenge #8 Give Thanks"

Here is my submission for the 7 Kids College Fund Challenge Blog.

I used Standing Fall Tilda for this "Thank You" card. I made my own flowers from multiple prima "got flowers?" to add dimension and stickles were added for a little bling. The pattern papers where distressed with my Tim Holtz paper distresser and I used my computer to create the Thank you sentiment for my oval metal tag.

These are the Copics I used to color Tilda.

Supplies

Stamps: Standing Fall Tilda, Magnolia;

Pattern Papers: Granola, Basic Grey

Cardstock: Brown, Archivers

Punches: Floral Branch, Nellie Snellen

Embellishments: Jute Twine, Westrim Crafts; Pearls, Recollections; Flowers, Prima; Metal Tag, HOTP; Crystal Stickles, Ranger Ind.

I hope you enjoyed my card.
