Tilda with little pocket

I'm back with a birthday card for my other little April birthday girl. This little chicken turns 4 next Tuesday, and she is just beside herself with excitement!

Papers are My Minds Eye, Tilda is coloured with Copics on X-Press It cardstock. Dies used are Spellbinders Floral Ovals and Large Classic Ovals, Magnolia Doohickey Lovely Fence. The flowers were a RAK gift from a crafty friend, and I have finished off with some pearls, lemon lace and Glitz Teeny Alphas for the sentiment.

I have combined a number of challenges for this card, and the direct links are below.

The Ribbon Girl - Lemon/Yellow colour challenge
Simply Magnolia - Gorgeous Blooms
Totally Tilda Challenge #94 - Over the garden fence
Midweek Magnolias Challenge #87 - Frame it
Marvelous Magnolia Blog Challenge #66 - Anything Goes

Thanks for stopping by! Enjoy your weekend :)

New baby

Hi and welcome back to my little piece of blog space. Today's card is for my best friend and her husband who are expecting their first baby. I'm really excited about how this card turned out, it has taken me a few days to make (almost a week!), thanks to a sick little bub.

Inside my card:

Anyhoo, I have lots going on this card  - well, for me anyway :) I have inked up this cute little Tilda with my Copics on Xpress-It cardstock. the papers are Kaisercraft Sweet Nothings - I LOVE this paper pad! It's almost empty now though :( The dies are Doohickey Fence, Spellbinders Floral Ovals, Large Ovals and Grand Labels One, and Tim Holtz Tattered Florals. I have DI-ed all the edges and flowers with Old Paper, and also used a Hero Arts text stamp and DI Old Paper on the little fence. I have fran-taged the fence, and around the image.

I would like to enter my card into the following challenges:

Tilda's Town - Challenge #77 Anything Goes

Frankie Says... Relax

Yep, I'm an eighties baby, so old enough to know (and love!) this song. I cannot believe I have finally managed to sit down and create a card just for a few challenges! It is so wonderful and refreshing :)

I have made this card for three challenges. The challenge links are at the bottom of the post.

Ok, so I started with the beautiful Yoga Tilda, as I was inspired by the song "Relax" from the funky Frankie Goes to Hollywood, coloured with my beloved Copics on X-Press It card. I have made an easel card using Spellbinders Floral Ovals, and Classic Large Ovals, TH Brushed Corduroy DI around all the edges (plus a little distressing), and Frantage-d around the top layer. I have die-cut flowers using TH Tattered Florals, and Movers & Shapers butterflies, added brads all over, and some pink trim, topped with yellow cotton lace and a flower resin cameo. Papers are Crate Paper and Echo Park.

Please excuse the large number of pics, I was so happy with how the card turned out, I couldn't stop taking pics! Lol

I would like to enter the following challenges:

Simply Magnolia - Flowers and Lace - my flowers on the front, as well as floral paper, and a flower resin cameo. I have also used yellow cotton lace on top of the pink trim inside the card

Midweek Magnolia - Song Bird - my song inspiration is Relax by Frankie Goes To Hollywood :)

Magnolia-Licious - Shaped Cards - my florally oval shaped card :)

Thanks so much for stopping by!
