Live in the Present!


As we enter the new year most of us take stock of the recent past and sometimes make new year's resolutions.  My resolution is to "live in the present" as much as possible. 


I love this Just Right sentiment and it goes well with my resolution and this scenic card.

I started my scene by stamping Tilda - Key Largo and then masked her for the rest of the scene development.  I added Sutter stamps water G795, Art Impressions psalms, Coronado Island sailboat, and Stampscapes 302A Gulls.

Mountain Maggie


Majestic Mountains is the theme this month over at Craft a Scene and this is the third week of the challenge.

I have had this scene rolling around my brain for some time and I finally had a chance to get it out!  This Magnolia Tilda is perfect for tip toeing through the creek coming off my majestic mountains. I do think, however, that the water may be a bit cold!




Most of the stamps are Stampscapes with one Sutter (the grassy brook) and of course Tilda. The rocks at the bottom around Tilda are Art Impressions.


Card Recipe:
Images: Stampscapes, Sutter, Art Impressions and Magnolia
Paper: Cryogen White for the scene, Glossy black and Bazzill brown
Inks: PanPastels colored the whole scene, White gel pen for the highlights, Copics for Tilda - V25, V20, E00, E01, E11, E50, E53, E57



Have a go at making your own mountain scene and then enter it into the challenge over at Craft a Scene.  Don't forget to add GDT to your entry should you wish to be a guest designer.

Have a great Sunday!

Bike Ride Anyone?

Little Tilda has been playing outside all day, riding her bicycle and visiting friends.  Well, that is what I would like to think anyway.  In my heart it is time for spring and a bike ride would be just the thing to convince my body that there might actually be a spring in my near future.


I have some new spring papers, new Tilda stamps and a wonderful Mojo Monday sketch to use today.


I turned the sketch on its side because it gives me more room for the flourish and sentiment at the bottom. I also drew in a bit of sidewalk that I colored with C1 and C3.


Card Recipe:
Images: Lovely Pop Tilda, Bring on the Cake Birthday Wishes (Stampin Up)
Paper: American Crafts Sweet Sundress, SU Peach Parfait
Markers/Inks: Copics - E01, E02, YR68, YR20, YR02, YR000, E31, E35, B99, B97, B93, G24, G21, G12, C1, C3, C5, C7, W0, W1, W5, Adirondack Aqua (for the sky)
Embellishments: Lace, SU punch and pearls, Sizzlets butterfly die, Wild Orchard Flowers and leaf, MS Leaf Punch, Die-Namics fancy flourish


On the weekend I was looking around blogland and came across some Copic coloring videos by Zoe from Make It Crafty.  She shows how to add in the pleats and wrinkles that we see in our clothing in real life, but they might not be drawn into the stamp.  It was tough to make the transition from the way I usually color to thinking about light and shadows and wrinkles.  It was worth it though, because the pants do look wrinkled.  I don't think the blouse came out the way I wanted it, but there is fun in learning and making mistakes.

Tilda is a Lovely Christmas Angel

My card today features Tilda as a Christmas angel, and an angel she is in her lovely green gown.  I sparkled her wings, halo and star wand with a sparkly gel pen.  I am also using my new Joy Tree stamp from Our Daily Bread Designs.  Back in September I won a gift certificate from Stamping Sisters in Christ to the ODBD store and this is one of the stamps I purchased.

I decided that it had been too long since I made an easel card and these images lent themselves nicely to this classic card shape.

This is the standup view

This is the flat view from the top
You can't see it in this picture, but I added the sparkly gel pen to the large words for maximum emphasis. 
Here's our little angle with freckles and all

Card Recipe:
Stamps: Magnolia Tilda Angel, Our Daily Bread Designs Joy Tree
Paper: Very Vanilla, Wild Wasabe, The Sharon Ann Magic Christmas Collection from Little Yellow Bicycle
Markers/Ink: Copics of course - E01, E02, E25, E29, G21, G24, G28, Distress green
Embellishments: Su Pearls, Really Reasonable Ribbon, Hero Arts Pointsettia flower pieces, Michael's brads, Sparkle gel pens in gold and green



This is the lower half of the card inside.  The top half has space to write your personalized note.

Tilda is Ready to Trick or Treat

My card today is using this cute little Indian (Native in Canada) Tilda dressed and ready to go Trick or Treating on Halloween night.


I made the background for her using Art Impressions stamps - Barn Window, Hay Bail and Birds. I had to finish off the barn by drawing in some lines to simulate the boards and I added a little green for the ground around the barn.

I also added a bit of cheese cloth to one side.  I see all the Magnolia blogs using cheese cloth so I thought I would try it too.  White was not quite right for this card so I used a bit of Distress Tea Dye, Aged Mahogany, and Brushed Corduroy to give it some color.


Card Recipe:
Stamps: Indian Tilda, Art Impressions Birds, Hay Bail and Barn Window
Paper: BoBunny Garden Girl Collection, Very Vanilla, Kraft black
Markers: The Distress inks mentioned above and Copics - YG63, YR09, YR14, YR16, W3, E08, E11, E13, E23, E25, E27, E33, Y08, Y28, Y93, Y95, C5, C7, C8
Embellishments: SU Twine, Prima Pearls, Cheese Cloth

I will be back later today with my Digital Delights DT card.  See you then!

Mojo Monday with a Lemony Tilda

Today I am following the Mojo Monday challenge with a lovely lemony yellow colored Tilda.  I had a little trouble with this card as I wanted to use the lemon paper along with the watermelon paper.  I also thought the clear division in the watermelon paper would work for the challenge because it shows two base papers one at the top and one at the bottom.  Check out the Mojo Monday Challenge!


Card Recipe:
Stamps: Princess Tilda, SU Birthday Wishes from Bring on the Cake
Paper: Sweet Summertime When Life Gives You Lemons and Watermelon Hopscotch, Bazzill, Little Boys
Markers: Copics - Y02, Y04, Y06
Embellishments: Michael's brad, Prima flower, buttons, tag, BoBunny Ribbon, Spellbinders Scalloped Rectangle and Label Four

Have a great day!
