Sunset Beach Wedding

Meet 

Bride & Bridesmaid

Wedding Background

Flower Girl

from Magnolia's new Wedding Collection 2010
and

May your day be Special - Chasing Butterflies Collection 2009

On the front panel of my card I've stamped Bride and Bridesmaid and the Wedding Background. I made a Gate Fold Card, the tutorial is by the very talented Beate of Splitcoast Stampers.

I coloured Bride & Bridesmaid with Copic Markers and cut them out, I used some pop dots to raise them above the background for some dimension.

The Wedding Background I stamped twice, cutting out the markee/curtains, coloured them and attached them to the background again with pop dots giving the background a little more dimension, adding a 2nd layer.

The beach background (Wedding background) I coloured or I should say attempted to colour with Distress Inks for a softer look, I certainly need lots of practice.  The front panel ended up with 3 layers (I forgot to take a side view to show the dimension)

For the inside of my card I've used the adorable Flower Girl, and the sentiment is also from Magnolia, May your day be special - Chasing Butterflies Collection 2009.

and this is the back of my card

This is the last of my DT cards for the Wedding Collection and they are now on their way to Magnolia Sweden, I hope they like them.

Happy Birthday Blondie

Kylie

wishing you a day

full of

surprises,

and I hope

all your wishes & dreams

come true.

Lots of love & best wishes

from the Pink Ladies

I'm sure you have all heard of our Pink Lady Kylie or as sometimes known as Blondie due to the fact the Pink Ladies have two Kylie's (Blondie & Brown) from Tickled Pink Stamps, also a Magnolia Down Under DT and Mad for Markers plus many other DT positions. I was fortunate to meet the lovely Kylie in Sydney for the Copic Certification class in early May.

This is the card I sent Kylie, hope she likes it.

I made it for the Tickled Pink Stamps preview of the fabulous new range of Lil Lolita's. I remodeled it and turned it into an Easel Card (just for a change), hope you like it Kylie.

 I didn't add the Birthday music this time, everytime I logged on to my blog it sang Happy Birthday to me, I kept muting it but for some reason the mute would not save. Anyways. I am singing silently to you Blondie (my DH would be laughing now if he read this, saying it is the only silent thing I ever did lol)

I hope you all will stop by Kylie's Blog and leave her some birthday loving & lots of hugs.

Tickled Pink Stamps Monthly Challenge

It's time for another Tickled Pink Monthly Challenge # 2

This month Kellie has given us a fabulous sketch to follow but with a twist, she asked us to make a bookmark also. I turned the sketch on it's side, I hope you can see a resemblance. The sketch was inspired by Claudia Rosa in the Magnolia Ink..

If you have a Lil Lolita stamp, we would love to see you use that, but you can also use Magnolia, CC Design and Kraftin`Kimmie, so join the fun. Kellie has an amazing Lil Lolita prize on offer again this month.

here's Willow tucked away to keep safe when you're not reading or for gift giving.

I decided to make a envelope card, a little home for my bookmark to live when you're not reading. I used my Spellbinder Nestie Labels 8 (topnote), cut it out three times, once in white cardstock for some stability, then one in each of the pattern papers.

Stamps - Lil Lolita - Willow from Tickled Pink Stamps, sentiment - Hero Arts, Scroll from Stampelglede Grunge Collection.

Paper - Red spots - Kaisercraft, Red leaf - Pink Paislee - 365 degrees from Delicous Papercrafting.

Copic Markers - Reds - R20, 22, 24, 27, Skin E00, 000, 11, Hair E50, 53

Other Distress Ink for edges - Tim Holtz Tea Dye, Flowers from Wild Orchid & Silk Ribbon - May Arts, White Cotton lace from TPS. Spellbinder Nesties - Labels 8 and long classic rectangles set.

I got to take a peak at the other DT's creations and they amazing, each and everyone one of them are so different and so beautiful, giving you lots of inspiration. I hope you will join the challenge, you remember you have a whole month to get your entries in.

Also check out the new challenge blog Kellie's starting up just for the Lolitas - these gals have been such a hit that they deserve their own space in Blogland! Check out The Lil Lolita Boutique HERE for all the details.
