Christmas Tilda with Cat

Good morning friends. 
There is a new challenge over at Magnolia Down Under today. This week we are challenging you to use STITCHING, real or faux. 


This adorable little stamp is Christmas Tilda with Cat. She is one of the cute stamps from the Little Christmas collection. She is just adorable! 
The papers are Melissa Francis and all of the flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts. The dark green lace is from Magnolia and the lovely mint ric rak is a gift from my good friend. 


I also want to share the cover of the new Magnolia Ink magazine - Turning Leaves. 
I am a bit excited as the card shown on the cover is by my gorgeous friend Debbie - Yayayay! Congratulations Debbie.  It is stunning :o)


Next weekend is an exciting weekend for me. I'm heading down to Melbourne to Paperific, a large paper craft show in Melbourne.  I finally get to meet some of my crafting friends :o) It is just amazing the friendships we make via this wonderful craft and unfortunately we don't often get to meet these wonderful people in real life. I have been fortunate to meet a handful so far but this weekend is going to be a big one with lots of close friends all together. I can't wait! Magnolia are coming as well and Zoe and I will be demoing for them. It is going to be a fun filled weekend.

Editor Tilda has a cuppa

Hi there friends, 
After a shocking week last week, I am very happy to say that this week is off to a very good start - phew!!
Well, the only way really, was UP!
There are some new challenges for you to play along with this week too....


All coloured with Copics, the embellishments are all from Wild Orchid Crafts. 


I have masked together adorable Editor Tilda from the Turning Leaves collection with the Tea cup from the A Little Yummy for your Tummy collection. I've also used the tea label from the same collection and used my image to decorate a little gift bag for friend. The bag will contain, yup, you guessed it - Tea! 



Until later in the week,
big Hugs xx

Beary Kiss-Mas

Hi there everyone!
I have a tag here to share with you today with one of the new Little Christmas stamps.


I just adore the little bears from this collection. I tried a new colour combination with my Copics for his hat and scarf, R59, R56, E04 and RV 91. It gives a lovely plum finish that I was quite pleased with. Its fun to experiment :o)


All of the embellishments are from Wild Orchid Crafts. 


I broke out my Snowflake die for the first time too.


There are also some Doo Hickey cut tags poking out behind. 




This adorable little fella is Cozy Christmas Bear. How adorable is he? I love his cute little scarf and hat. I had a ball colouring his fur up. Adorable. 

Thanks for visiting me today!
