Im Back with a Tilda & Lace Christmas

"Tilda & Lace Christmas Card"

Morning all on this chilly Monday Morning .Well i managed to make a couple cards over past few days .This is one i finished yesterday. I just love these stamps from magnolia last year's kit.I have masked Tilda on to the snowflake ring image coloured with copics.Design papers our from crafty stash.

The pearls ,gems are from Kaiser .Flowers are from Prima and i punched the leaves with mugills fern punch.Now i have had this lace for ages and havent been able to use this as it's not straight lace .If that sounds right it's curved so after months of being unused i thought it was time to have ago.I think it looks ok too!so glad i tried it as beautiful lace and cant for the life of me think where i purchased it from.Stickles and Glamour dust used to give the sparkle and shine .Im afraid piccy doesnt do justice might just have to ask the man in the red suit for one gfor crimbo!I am entering this card into the following challenges .It has been awhile since i have done any challenges due to my health so nice to be back.just hope it continues and im able to craft!

Just Magnolia: Lace

Alphabet Challenge :U for unused stash....Lace

Winter Wonderland :Monochromatic Christmas Card

Fun With Shapes: Lace

Morning all and it is morning aprox 3.13am!!in so much pain couldnt sleep so came into my wee craftroom with pain killers and a cuppa.What better way to finish off this card i started before i went to Darlington just never got round to finishing or uploading until now.I didnt make this card for any special challenge.But my wee friend June over at Dezinaworld has a spot light challenge going on. This weeks is to use the colour Bronze .So why not pop over and join in!

This is only the 2nd time ive done anything vintage wise as you can see further down a couple posts made another christmas card using different Santa Image.I have to improve ...lol as im not the standard as my too best bloggin friends June & Cheryl thats for sure!They are just so amazing and talented.Take me a long while to get to there standard.

Anyways this creation is i have used a Stampin Up image which i think is from the

"Old Fashioned Christmas set"..The background image is from Magnolia "Silent Night".Have stamped that in Stampin up Close to Cocoa,Creamy Caramel,and also Bronze Versa chalk,other inks used distress Rusty Hinge .The Design Papers are from this years Christmas Release from Kaiser Craft and i cant get enough of them.These i bought from Merly Impressions Dear Santa Collection.You will find most of the Kaiser Design Papers here at Meryl.The Ticket is i believe dream from Tim Holtz pack i have.The flowers Wild Orchard also the leaves which i have bronzed too.Then added Tattered Angels glimmer mist.The String of pearls are from my stash,the others all Kaiser Craft.This beautiful cream vintage Lace i had in my stash.Ther doiley i have also distressed using the same colour inks.
