Tilda with tag gifts

Hi!

Can you believe how fast the weekend goes by? It feels like a minute and there's Monday again. :) Well, I've been a busy bee over the weekend - I made two cards. One of them I'll be showing you today.
It's Christmas Challenge over at Tilda's Town and I just couldn't help myself and made an early Christmas card. When I go outside it's like 'Winter is coming'. It's freeeeeeezing .....
I didn't used traditional red-green-gold colors. Instead I used soft blue-green or mint with white. I used a lot of frantage and DooHickey Dies cuts on this one. Papers are again from First Edition, one of their Christmas packs, I don't know the exact name. Shape of the card was cut out with my Silhouette Cameo. :) I made the rolled roses myself with Marianne die Chinese roses. Aren't they gorgeous?

So, here's my first Christmas card in 2013:

For this card I used:

• colors: TH distress ink markers and distress ink pads
• ink: archival black
• watercolor paper: Langton HP 300g
• design papers: First edition papers - Stocking fillers
• stamp: Tilda with tag gifts (A Christmas story, 2012)
• dies: Magnolia Doohickey -leaf & Swirl, peacock feathers, Vintage Box Lacing Coffee, Marianne - Chinese rose
• flowers from Wild orchid crafts, I am roses
• cheesecloth
• liquid pearls - color opal
• stickles glue (stardust)
• white half pearls
• TH crackle paint (picket fence) 
• white and blue cotton cord
• paper doily
• frantage (chunky white, aged silver, silver glass glitter).

I'm entering this card into the following challenges:

1. Tilda's Town: Christmas
2. Magnolia Down Under (I was TOP 5): Flowers, Make your own
3. You, me and Magnolia: Anything goes
4. Lovely hAngar or sweet Magnolia: Shabby Chic or Vintage

Well, the wedding season is obviously opened, this is my second ordered wedding card this year and people keep calling me to make them some, so you'll be seeing a lot of these two (E&T) in the next few months. ;)

Hi!

A few weeks back I was asked to do a birthday card for twins (boys). I had a lot of trouble picking up a stamp that would be appropriate and then their mum suggested this cute Tilda. Even though this is a stamp from Christmas collection, I think you can use it for many different occasions. Don't you agree?

Tilda Longstocking

Hi!

I made another purple card. :) I somehow found a few more purple flowers to go with it, but I'm afraid that's it for now. :(
I used one of the new stamps Tilda Longstocking and coloured her with distress markers. I used a lot of frantage this time. I think once you try it you can't stop using it and it all looks empty without it. :)
