Good evening everyone hope you had a fabby weekend and the weather was good for you?

It's been beautiful here in Staffs today, I've had my windows wide open and my washing on the line ..dont it make ya feel lots better when it's nice outside?

I was so pleased with the mothers day card I made & uploaded on Sat that I forgot to tell you about my win over at 'Just Magnolia',lol it was the card I made using Mina's fab sketch.

Tonight's card is my entry into 2 challenges
1)...Friday Sketchers
&
2)... Just Magnolia special monthly challenge ~ Anything Goes + Glitter(optional)


I've had these luvly papers for ages ...a freebie from craft mag, I thought they were perfect for my card

I coloured my image with a combo of Copics & Promarkers then used some shimmer chalk for added sparkle ...ooops I forgot to colour Tilda's hair band,lol

I coloured a doily with pink & yellow shimmer chalk, sprayed it with Crafters Companion Spray & shine then sprinkled some Glamour Dust over it

Just Magnolia + Cupcake Craft Challenge

Yes I know I'm early,lol.... Happy Weekend peeps! what's the weather like where you are? it's really frosty here today and soooo cold....brrrrr, might just stay in today, turn the heating up and do some crafting.
My 4yr old Niece is always asking me to make her 'pretty things' for her bedroom so last night I transformed a plain wooden picture frame into exactly that for her....do ya like it? I've looked for any challenges that it can be entered into and come up with the following 2.......... 1) Just Magnolia#75 special monthly challenge ~ Anything goes &
2) Cupcake Craft Challenge #110 Pink & Brown, off to link up now so ttfn...see ya soon xx


A luvly crafting friend of mine very kindly sent me some lush Tilda images....you know who you are ~ Thanks hun! this is one of them ...aint she a cutie? I coloured her with my Copics...thought I'd give her some pretty pink socks,lol... I mounted Tilda on brown then pink card stock and placed her on a piece of lush dp that I bought from Crafty Urchins. I added some ribbon around the frame, then, after spraying with Crafter's Companion Spray & Sparkle then sprinkling with Glamour dust I added flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts and finished off with a small bow..from stash.


It was really hard to get a proper angle on the frame with it being bigger than a card so this pic's no different really, just thought it might have caught the sparkle a bit better



Thank you for popping by today....have a fab day

xx Hugs Lizzy xx :)
