Totally Tilda Challenge ~ 77

Good Morning my lovelies.

Today we have a new challenge at Totally Tilda and the theme is a Christmas Bingo Grid.



I did two lines.
Straight across the middle - any embossing (Frantage on the tips of the snowflakes),snowflake die cut or punch and gems or pearls.
And straight down the middle - ribbon or lace, snowflake die cut or punch and glitter.

Little Tilda is coloured with the usual mix of DI re-inkers and markers, and her wings are coated with glamour dust...not that my legendary photography skills show it!

The paper is Pion Silent Night.
Joy! Crafts Winter Wishes Ice Crystal Border with Frantage on the tips.
Seam binding with a pearl and diamante embellie, and a few pearls.


Our very generous sponsor for this challenge is Bunny Zoe's Crafts.

And the prize is...


There's a gorgeous array of cards from all the Tildarettes over on the Totally Tilda blog, go take a look and be inspired!

Before I go... I must apologise for being 'missing in action' recently. The exceptionally good weather we're having in the UK is wonderful and I'm not complaining at all, but it's manic working for an A/C company when the temperature starts to rise, and my free time suffers for it.
Never fear, it doesn't last long, all too soon we'll be back to the usual miserable UK weather again.

Thanks for looking.
Love and hugs

Totally Tilda Challenge ~ 76


Good morning my lovelies.

Today I have my debut card for Totally Tilda and the challenge theme is 'Titian Tilda' which means you need to colour her tresses a lovely shade of red or bright auburn.

I'm a blonde or brunette kinda gal when it comes to colouring hair so this was a real challenge for me, and I thoroughly enjoyed trying something different...but she could well be more of a ginger nut than a Titian beauty!


This little sweetie is Drip Drop Tilda, available to buy Here.
She's coloured with the usual DI re-inkers and markers.
The gorgeous papers are again from Pion Design.
Embellies: Doo Hickey heart swirl, punched flowers, and a few pearls.

Our generous sponsor for this challenge is The Ribbon Girl


With a prize of a £10 voucher to spend in the store.

Please pop on over to the Totally Tilda Challenge blog to see all the gorgeous cards from the other Tildarettes.

Thanks for looking.

Wee Flower Fairy


I love fairies ♥
I am absolutely sure that the world would be a much better place if we had tiny, beautiful fairies fluttering above our heads and leaving a trail of sparkly dust in their wake.

I do particularly love the fairies drawn by Sylvia Zet...they are just so perfectly sweet!


The gorgeous fairy is available HERE as a set of digital images or HERE as rubber stamps.

As always, she's been coloured with a mix of DI re-inkers and markers.
The papers are from Pion Design Vintage Garden series, and a sentiment from Whimsy.

I did make this card a few weeks ago but I had to wait until it reached its very special destination before popping it on here.

I am waaayyy behind in leaving comments, but I am trying my best to catch up.
Thanks for looking.
Love 'n' hugs

Winter Wishes Ice Crystals Border.

Edited to add..
The boy has not picked a winner...he was FAR too busy cleaning his dump of a bedroom!
So I had to get the hubster to step in...


Sorry, it's a terrible photo, I was very late getting home and was rushing to get it done.
Congrats to you Auntie Sue, I'll pop it in the mail tomorrow

Keep Smiling :)


Thank you for all your lovely comments on my exciting news yesterday...you are all so sweet!

I do have a Tilda card to show today, but NOT a card for my new DT position at Totally Tilda where the theme for the challenge is Tomboy Tilda and no pink...and as you will see, this card doesn't quite fit that challenge theme!



Yep...pink and girly!

This little lady is Tilda Longstockings...I love this stamp but one of my buddy's says she's horrible, with her backside hanging out! 
She's coloured with a mix of DI re-inkers and DI markers.
The papers are (yet again!) Maja Design Vintage Spring basics...I'm almost at the end of the pad now but then I may be forced to buy another one  :)
Punched flowers with Doodlebug candy dots for the centres, and a sentiment from PTI which is stamped onto a label made with MFT Sentiment Strips - one of my many birthday gifts, thank you honey xx

Thanks for looking.

Ta-Da!!!

Exciting stuff to tell you today!

We're at the end of June now and boy but it's been the busiest and best month ever, filled with lots of exciting times and good news.

My heartfelt thanks go to my friends and family for all the birthday wishes, beautiful cards and very generous gifts...I was thoroughly spoilt rotten...VERY thoroughly.

My home is filled with the most beautiful handmade cards, and I got lots of new crafty stash to play with.

I also got some very, very exciting news...
I am now officially a Tildarette on the Totally Tilda Challenge!!!
I was more than a little stunned to be asked but absolutely delighted.
It's a fantastic team to be on and all the ladies are so much fun (as well as amazingly talented) though some of them are very naughty...mostly the ones I already know so I feel perfectly at home!

I will start by joining in with  the next challenge in a fortnight but there is a new challenge today with the theme of "Tomboy Tilda". The sponsor for this challenge is the very lovely Nikki, owner of

Thank you very much La-la Land Crafts and Irina, I will be stalking the postie :)

I'll be back tomorrow with a card...at long last!
Thanks for looking.
