So Pretty In Pink - DT Call

Hello,

Yes, I am back again today with another card. I had a great day crafting with my friends. We always have good laughs and we encourage each other. In a couple of weeks we will be going to the scrapbook convention and we make it a weekend outing. So Fun!

Today I have this sweet Tilda to share with you! I am using my new loot I received in the mail the other day. I couldn't really capture it with the camera but I used Tim Holtz Postcard embossing folders. She just looks so chic sitting on the chocolate sign. And the feathers well they just seemed to fit the theme. I hope I have inspired you today!




Here is a closer view of Tilda:

CMC Challenge Red

Hello,

Is everybody ready for the weekend? I sure am. We had snow yesterday and today it is supposed to be in the mid 50's. That's New England weather for you. Today I am showcasing Tilda with Bunny. She is too sweet. You will want to join us over at the CMC challenge Red, Reds and More Red.  I am always nervous using red so I try to stay away from it. So it was good that I was challenged to use red. I actually enjoyed coloring with the red. I hope I have inspired you today!

Oh and mark your calendars for the CMC 3rd Year Birthday Bash beginning on April 26th.

A Secret Garden

Happy Friday,

I hope you had a great week. I can't believe it is already April. The time just flies by. I made this canvas for my daughter-in-law. It was very difficult to photograph this because of the metallic paint I used. I am so addicted to altered canvases.

I want to purchase the Prima Paper Doll Stamps and use them on an altered canvas. This Graphic 45 paper is a must have. It is absolutely gorgeous!

I hope I have inspired you today. Have a great weekend!

Karen
