C............Christmas

Hello bloggy friends. 
Well, it is Monday again and that means it is time for another fabulous challenge at Ooh La La Creations.  Firstly, please let me say a big thank you for all the entries that we had for the last challenge.  Please stop by the Ooh La La Challenge Blog to see who our lucky winners were.  Remember, there is no Random Org here, the Design Team take it in turns to pick their favourite and two runners up - so if you won it's because we loved your creation!!

So, onto the next challenge and this time it is:
C.........CHRISTMAS

Can't get much easier than that eh?
Here is the card I made for this challenge:

This is one of the Quick Cards from the new Yuletide Wishes CD which you can buy here.  The little pearl embellishments are from my stash.

Please remember to stop by the rest of the Design Team and see their fabulous creations (links on the DT tab at the top of this page).  They have all worked really hard to offer you some inspiration, so please remember to leave them some love if you pay a visit.

What wouldn't you give for a selection of these gorgeous Vintage Christmas Ribbon???

**************

So here is my project for this challenge:

Sorry, think I was drunk when I took this piccy!! LOL

Anyway the image across the middle of the card is from the new range of Digi Stamps from Crafty Ribbons.

I quite simply printed it off and matted it onto a piece of black card.

Then added the two gorgeous ribbons, one at the top and one at the bottom:

Both ribbons are available from Crafty Ribbons here.

Not only are there digi stamps and ribbons to match but there are also some fabulously cute digi papers too.

Farewell Totally Tilda

No, not the title of our new challenge at Totally Tilda but an actual farewell from me to the Totally Tilda Design Team!

Yesterday I made the decision to step down from the DT which I had thought was quite a momentous decision for me.  As it turns out, it was made so much easier in so many ways.

There comes a time in our lives when we stand back and evaluate what we do, and how that fits in (or not) with the way our lives are going at that time.

Yesterday was one of those times for me!

Suffice to say - times change and it is time for me to do the new things I want to do.

I have had a ball on the Totally Tilda DT and have had the good fortune to work alongside some of THE most talented designers I have ever come across.

Girls, I wish you well in your future on the Totally Tilda DT.  I will still be around to stalk  follow you in blogland and I hope that you will stick with me too.

************

I HAVE CANDY IF YOU ARE INTERESTED - POST IS PINNED AT THE TOP OF MY BLOG UNTIL 10 NOVEMBER

*************

Well the new challenge is:

TILDA WITH FRUIT

(There are some rules with this challenge so please stop by the Totally Tilda challenge blog and have a good read - after all it would be a shame for you to put in lots of hard work on your gorgeous creations and then find out that it doesn't fit the challenge rules)

So here is the card I made for the new challenge:

I have used Cherry Tilda which you can get at Sir Stampalot .  She is coloured with my copics and I have sat her on a log which is again a Magnolia stamp which you can get at Sir Stampalot.

The backing paper is from Stamping All Day where you will find a fabulous array of gorgeous goodies.

The red ribbon across the top, the sentiment ribbon and that gorgeous cherry ribbon is of course from Crafty Ribbons.

The tree and the fence die cuts were from my fabulous friend Liz (thanks sweetie)

The little cherry charm was from Bunny Zoe's Crafts.

I am entering this into the challenge at MDUC where the challenge is "Inspired by a Song" and my song inspiration was "Cherry Cherry" by Neil Diamond

Inspirational Anya!

Hi peeps,

Just popped in to post my card for the latest Anyone for Anya challenge.

This time there is an Inspirational Picture to base your creation on, here is the picture:

And here is the card I made for the challenge:

I have used Miss Anya Rain and coloured her wellies and brolly with my Letraset Neon Markers.  The rest of the image is coloured with my copics. The bench is from Magnolia's Pink Collection available at Sir Stampalot.

The flowers are from my lovely blogging mummy (thanks sweets) and the bow is made using a fork, would you believe and the ribbon I made it with is, of course from Crafty Ribbons.  

The sentiment came from a Hobby Art stamp set Wildflowers.
