About Me

My Photo
Hi my name is Tab and I'm married to Leigh, and we live in a little village in Leicestershire, UK with our very cuddly Shih Tzu called Teddy and between him and Leigh they make me laugh each day! I love to spend my time either doing a bit of crocheting or inking up a rubber stamp....truly love both and I love to dabbling in a bit of cake decorating too :o)

Tilda with Ballet Shoes

Hey lovelies.....how ya doin'....good, I hope :o)

Today I want to share with you a card that I made using one of the new sweetie Magnolia's from the new Prince and Princess Collection 2012......this collection HAS to be one of  THE best collections, so far....totally and utterly love them all :o)

Anyway, I decided to use today Tilda with Ballet Shoes, and I have to say I adore her......it's the hair, I love it....and this little sweetie was an absolute pleasure to colour too...loved every minute of it :o)

Sorry for the smaller pics to normal....but I always in the past used Windows Live Writer to upload my post, but it seems to not want to play anymore :o(......I can only post a post if it has not got pictures in it....if anyone knows how to fix this please please can you tell me....I feel lost with out :o( {I don't like the ex-large pics via blogger, they are just too big LOL}


The papers are by Magnolia, and I have distressed the edges with Walnut Stain Distress Ink and stitched using a sewing machine.  


The clear button and pin are from The Hobby House.  The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts.

The sentiment is an old Hampton Art Alphabet set....that I bought for a £1 LOL....love a bargain me LOL.....

 I have coloured the image using Prismacolor Pencils, blended with sansodor

 The inside has been decorated in a simple style using various Magnolia and Stempelglade stamps.


Well that is all from me today, I shall be paying you lovelies a visit later today....just got some work to day first and then I shall be back :o)......

Thank you so much to each and everyone of you for your wonderful and uplifting comments, your the best :o)

For anyone interested this card will be available in my Etsy Shop later today :o)

Have a great day!

Hugs Tab xxx

I love this card Tab, I never liked magnolia stamps until I discovered your blog and now I think I have a little addiction lol, I need to buy the stamp you have used on this card and I have ordered the new baby stamps because they are gonna sell out for sure and they are sooo cute I just couldn't resist them. Stunning creation as usual, will be back for another browse soon, Take care, Gaynor :)
