Pretty summery easel card and a new challenge at LHOSM

Hello everyone

I hope that you are all having a pleasant afternoon, its a bit up and down weather wise here in the UK!!!

I have made a card using Dandelion Tilda, she is so super sweet. 


I have coloured her with copics and shaped the torn note pad style page, with a joy craft die, the butterfly border is Joy craft too.


Peeking out at the back of the flowers are two Magnolia tags threaded with hand dyed seam binding and I added some natural hemp twine and a little butterfly charm!



The stunning paper is Pion Design and is called 'By the cherry tree', its from the new Easter Greetings papers. Available here at Live and Love Crafts. As are the ivory pearl trim, hemp twine and stunning WOC florals!



We are have a brand new challenge today at Lovely Hanglar or Sweet Magnolia and our lovely Gina is hosting the challenge. 

Our super easy theme is summer and we would love you to pop over and join the challenge. We are thrilled to be sponsored by Live and Love Crafts and you could win a fabby £10 prize voucher to spend in their vintage store!!!!

Have a great day,
Take care

Rosebud Tilda Card

Good Afternoon Everyone.

I am so excited because I have my new Tilda's that I seem to have had only order for such a looong time! I wanted to make a spring card for a change.

Here is my first card that I have made, using pink and green as my main colourway this is such a lovely combo. 

I have added a Magnolia Dragonfly to the main image, although I think they look like butterflies myself - hey ho, personal preference I suppose.

So here is my card...

I have coloured my image entirely with copics and hand stitched my lovely Maja papers. (although covered alot of it up with embellies!)


I have added several Magnolia Die cuts and two lots of lovely lace and I think that the beautiful Ribbon is called silk crush or similar.


Of course the heart doilies are La Land with WOC and LLCs gorgeous florals and Berries!


Thank you for stopping by today.

I hope that you have a lovely weekend.

Midway post for Lovely Hanglar or Sweet Magnolia Challenge

Hello Everyone,

This is my fortnight to host Lovely Hanglar or Sweet Magnolia Challenge.

The sweet Magnolia Team are here with our midway post.

We are thrilled to be sponsored by wonderful shabby chic and vintage Live and Love Crafts.



Our Theme this time around is Pearls and/or Gems!!!

Here is my double step card that I have created for inspiration.



I have used Dancing Italian Tilda, a definite favourite of my mine, coloured with copics and decorated with a little frantage. The tassells next to Tilda are Magnolia Doohickeys and the butterfly is from one of Maja's border sheets, available at Live and Love Crafts Store.


All my papers are Lemon crafts Wet Paint collection and I have generated my sentiment on my PC.

Hope to see you over at our challenge.
