Tilda and Butterflies

Good Morning Peeps,

I should be on my way home now :o)

Today is Challenge Day at

Magnolia-licious and Wee Stamps.

Butterflies are the name of the day.

I have used #229

'Sitting Tilda with Butterfly'

from the NEW COLLECTION

'Once Upon A Time 2013 Addition'
An adorable set!!

I also have 'bought paper'
again today. It is from S.E.I
and is about 15 years old at least!!

My card stock is from SU.
I have used Pink Pirouette
and Chocolate Chip ( yum! )

I used a charm from my stash, as well as pearls.
The seam binding is from the Ribbon Girl.
The ribbon across the front is SU.
I used Doo Hickey Die
for the lace on the edge of the pink,
as well as the bugs ( butterflies for today )
Also a Spellbinders Die.
OH! and my brand new Corner Die
from Joy Craft - I LOVE IT!

This time I stamped Tilda

on my Cryogen White

and cut her out. I don't do that

very often as I am scared! LOL

Here she is close up:

Here is the inside:

Weather Ways

Good Morning Friends,

Hope only good things are happening

with you today.

You are not going to believe this,

I am going on holidays!!

Precious time with my Grandchildren

in Disneyland!!!!

Then spending time

with my dear Mom.

So right about now I should be

in the middle of DISNEYLAND :o)

Today is another wonderful Challenge

at Magnolia-licious and Wee Challenge Blog.

It is all about the weather in any

way you can think of.

I used a rather old image called:

Tilda with Umbrella from

Spring Butterfly Collection 2009!!!

For some reason I HAD to make

a card about rain.

I love the rain.

It puts me to sleep on winter nights.

I have wonderful cozy days sitting

in front of the fire with a 

hot chocolate,

and I love walking in the rain any 

time of year.

Besides which I had some

awesome 'bought design paper' to use LOL

Not digital for a change!

Here is my card:

Plain and simple today.

The paper is from

'My Minds Eye - quite contrary',

and it is years old!

My yellow and vanilla card

stock is from Bazzil.

I received the lovely charm as a 

gift when I ordered something

online :o)

The ribbon is from SU, as is my

sentiment.

I have coloured with my usual

Copics and I have used 

Crystal Lacquer for every rain drop

and over the puddle.

Here is a close-up of Tilda:

I doubt you can see the

lacquer on the rain drops.

Here are a couple more pictures:

This card is not a side opening one -

believe it or not this one opens 'up'.

The top inside looks like this:

The bottom like this:

The umbrella die is from

Diana's Store.

You can find it HERE

Can you see my 3 little rain drops?

You may have figured out by now that

I am on Team A for the Challenges.

*So next Tuesday you will see Team B's

beautiful work.*

Remember to follow the rules

 and come on and join the fun!

Don't forget to leave comments

all along the way - 

you could win a wonderful gift

package from Diana.

wonderful comments you leave

for me!

Love, Candy
