Make a Wish

Hi Everyone,
Well today I have Miss Tilda from the Fairytale Collection - Simsalabim Tilda. The DP is from Kaisercraft and is called Magic Happens, I actually used the die cut page for those gorgeous silver flourishes, the plain silver paper is from a $2 shop. The cardstock is Gina K - Ocean Mist and the Embossing folder is from Craft Concepts -Budding vine, I sponged this with Memento - Grape Jelly and I used a Versa cube Turquoise around Tilda and sentiment which was computer generated. The ribbon, buckle and flowers are all from my ever growing stash. The silver & pearl brads were a free gift from Anna's Craft Cupboard online store.
I am trying to give more details to my posts, but it ends up very long, I hope I am not boring you too much.
When I first saw the Magnolia Down Under Challenge #90 I thought "Heavy Metal" I didn't think I could do it. But it just goes to show you, give it a go and you may surprise yourself like I did he he he ......
I also have a few photos for this one, so if I havn't lost you already scroll down...

Inside the front cover, isn't that DP Gorgeous!

These are the Copic Markers I used

Happy Easter

Hi Everyone,
Today I have some Easter cards I have been working on, I hadn't made Easter cards before and they were a lot of fun to make, the soft pastel colours were lovely to work with. On all these I used Crafty Secrets clear art stamps, very vintage images I think. I also used Prima - Jack & Jill Celebrate 6x6 paper pad. So here we go






Ok I am showing the fronts and the inside fronts , if that makes any sense hahaha!
I hope you like them
PS - I seemed to have a bit of trouble with this post tonight, sorry if it's abit wishy washy haha
