Now dont all faint......lol

well have actually made a card!!! this is for a docraft challenge which involved paper piecing,mine was a simple card as that is all my brain will run to at the moment.used the craft stamper free flower stamp on the freebie papers from cardmaking and papercraft this month,cut out and curled and then used scalloped square punch,added a greeting and some pearls.

Also finished a scrapbook for my sister in law who has turned 40 and visiting from canade from friday.been hunting through the loft for photos and used up lots of embellishments but really enjoyed it.think the cover is a bit plain but she doesnt like lots of bits so she will be in for a shock when she opens it....lol

Tilda challenge card

Hi all,hope you are having a lovely weekend,i am having a bit of a crafting crisis at moment.....lol.have made 4 cards today and this is the only one i actually like!
made it for the tilda challenge over at docrafts which is hosted by the lovely jennie this time and you can find her fab blog here.
for the challenge we had to follow a recipe and include some glitz so i have used my new papermania hampstead papers which are lush and glittered,flowers from stash with added card candy and glitter,lace,pearl gems and i coloured my tilda image with my beloved promarkers and stamped the greeting which is always nerve racking in case it goes wrong...lol,have raised tilda up with 3d pads and added glitter with a sakura pen.

We had to use a tilda image and the theme was DLG - distress,layers and glitter and you can tell i went a bit mad with the glitter......lol
i coloured tilda with promarkers,used tim holtz distress ink and his new embossing folders
which i love.
papers are tim holtz which i recieved from a very lovely lady and distress ink was used on the edges,added a tim holtz tag and lots of stickles.
