Happy Birthday : Tina Wenke stamp

I bought this stamp a while ago and finally sat down to color. Lots of coloring on this one with my copics. I  forgot how relaxing it is to color. This stamps is from the Tina Wenke Stampavie collections . I love the little critters on this one.  I used some liquid aplique for the white frosting. Can you believe I have had that for a while and never used it. Glad I found it in my stash. It wont get lost again, I love it.

Tilda is Loopy

Have you seen the new Martha Stewart punches. Oh my I love them all but of course I have some favorites. One is the Loop border and corner. Both punches work together to create a continuous pattern. Great for framing . I used it on this card with Tilda. I must admit when I first opened the punch, it was a bit frustrating trying to get the pattern. I then found this video by Martha Stewart Crafts and it explained everything I needed to know. The punch will give you best results when used with specific paper sizes like 3-1/4 and 5 inches. The video is very helpful. Here is the link, click punch around the page

With Love Tilda

I'm so trilled I found a new challenge blog for Magnolia stamps; Magnolia-Licious Highlites . If you have not had a chance to visit, please do. Lots of talented ladies there. I took out my Tilda and made this card for the June Sketch Challenge. This is Tilda blowing hearts from 2009 Love Collection. Thank you for visiting and don't forget to leave a comment

Relaxing Tilda de

decorative circles

This week the challenge at The Cuttlebug Spot is to color a stamped image. Well you know lately I have been coloring lots of Tildas, so how could I do something else. I chose the relaxing Tilda and cut her background away because I liked my paper better LOL.. The sentiment is done using my Stampin Up Circle of Friendship set. I stamped it first then embossed with the Cuttlebug's decorative circle frames. I love those small embossing folders. I then used my SU scallop circle punch to punch out everything . I love the way it came out. Thank you for visiting always and please take a moment and leave a comment. I always like to read what you post.

Aloha..

I've been coloring more Tilda images. This one was lots of fun.  I decided to use my Life's a Beach cricut cartridge on this one for the Hibiscus cut.  Its the first time I've used this cart and absolutely love it.  I have also pictured the copics I used on this image for my friend Sandy. Hope it helps you Sandy, I want to see your creations too.

Fascinated with Tilda

I have resisted these stamps for a long long time.... but finally gave in. I'm so glad I did. I absolutely love her. I have 3 boys and having a girl in my house is lots of fun (even if she is just a stamp). I have been practicing coloring with copics for a while so please be kind. Here are two that I have done. .... more to come.
