Tilda with a Candy Cone

Evening everyone. Another Christmas card to share with you - I'm really on a roll now, eh?! And I'm getting back into this blogging lark! Woohoo, is good to be back among friends!

Ingredients:

Image and Papers - Magnolia watercoloured with distress inks.

Sentiment - Craftwork Cards.

Metal Corner and Pin - Wild Orchid Crafts.

Flower - Duck Pond Crafts.

Other - Lace and Red Cabochon from stash, Red Card - Bazzill Basics.

Don't look too closely at my colouring! This is one of the images that I coloured for last Christmas but then didn't get round to using on a card and when I was going through them the other week, this one was one of the more passable ones but certainly nothing to write home about ;-)

I'm entering my card into the following challenges:

• Oh La La Creations - Challenge #116 Christmas Sentiment.

And I think that's about it! Off to do some visiting now, in between a bit of telly watching. Thanks for popping by, see you sooooooooooon..........................xxx

Love Letters Straight from the Heart....

Afternoon!! The challenge starting today over at The Crazy Challenge is 'Flowers' and we've been lucky enough to be sponsored by Saturated Canary. Here's my card:

Ingredients:

Image - Saturated Canary 'Love Letters' coloured with Spectrum Noirs.

Papers - Fancy Pants 'Love Story'.

Black Card (for matting) - Bazzill Basics.

Flowers - Duck Pond Crafts coloured with versamagic ink pads.

Brads - Papermania.

Ribbon - Free with some pyjamas lol!

Now - what do you think of my card? Honestly?!? The reason I ask is that it's quite unusual for me to use such a mish-mash of patterns on my DPs, etc. In the end, I felt quite pleased with the overall look but you know when you just have those niggling doubts about whether it works or not?!
I'm also entering my card into the following challenges:

• Divas by Design - Challenge 19 Sketch.
• Daisy Doodles - Challenge # 52 Romantic theme.
• Crafty Boots Challenges - Inspired by a Song Title (see my blog post title, think it's a Patsy Cline song?!?)
