Silent Night

Gosh! not long to Christmas. Where did this year go?
Here is another cute Tilda. I feel so relaxed colouring these gorgeous little girls in.
I have coloured her with my Prismacolor pencils and a colorless blender. I usually use an odorless white spirits but thought I would try the blender pencil. They work quite good I think! I sat her on a Spellbinders die cut frame and blinged it up a bit.
I hope you like her. I'm really getting to like stamping (something very new to me). I didn't even put flowers on this. Most unusual for me as that is my passion...to make sculptured flowers. It is nice to have a change.

Cream Christmas card

This is a Christmas card I just finished. I used the Poinsettia border from Spellbinders and the Fancy tag also from Spellbinders.
I love this border die cut as it can be used in so many ways.
I hope you like it.

Friends birthday

Hello!
Today I have made a card for a friends birthday. As you can see I haven't got any design paper on it. Instead I have used gems to make it sparkle and a Spellbinders frame. Then of course there is Tilda sitting there. I love these colours together.
I used Prismacolor pencils to colour Tilda.

Prismacolor Tilda

I thought it was time to get some Christmas cards together.
I have just received my Prismacolor pencils and have been practicing using them. I haven't mastered doing the shading on the white yet.

Tilda thank you

Hi!

Today I have made my first Magnolia stamp card. I still need lots of practice colouring yet. I coloured this one with Tombows. From now on I will be trying out the Prismacolour pencils as they have just arrived at my front door....yeeeeeeh!!

God grant me

Hi!
Today I have made a card with the serenity verse. (computer generated). The small frame is a die cut from a friend that made it from her Gazelle machine. The roses are hand made by me and are made from the small blossom punch. I have added a photo with my finger on it to show you the size. If you double click the pictures you will see a close up. I hope you like it.

Easel card

Hello!
I have had the worst week. The pipes burst in my bathroom wall. When I walked into my craft room the floor was flooded. What a mess. I had two large drawers and they were soaked on the bottom and are now all warped.
Thankfully my craft things were okay. So I have had the plumber in and the carpet man to dry the carpet. almost back to normal where I can at least do some craft.
This is my first easel card. I love these cards. The flowers are ones I have made from daisy punches. Spellbinders die in the middle that I stamped.

Clematis

This morning I thought I would have a go at making a Clematis. They come in such pretty colours. I have coloured this with my blue and mauve Tombows. It kind of looks like the real one.

My first stamped image

I really thought hard about putting this card on.
I have a long way to go before I can call myself a stamper but one has to start somewhere. This is so different to what I usually do. I did have fun and that's the main thing. I don't mind constructive criticism. That is how I will learn.
