Nautical Tilda at Sketch Saturday

Posted by Emma Lockley at Saturday, September 11, 2010
Good Morning and happy Saturday! Today is a new Sketch Saturday challenge and as always Jo has designed an amazing sketch for us all to work with. Remember i said how Ive fallen in love again with Hanglar and Magnolia, well todays card is using a gorgeous Tilda image from the Bon Voyage collection which you can buy right now from our Sponsor Simon Says stamp




I had so much fun making this card, yes it took me 5 hours again lol but it was worth it in the end. Ive has a bottle of crackle glass for about 2 years and never got round to using it, So when I saw the challenge at Just Magnolia and the gorgeous DT work I thought i'ld give it ago. I love the effect especially with this magnolia collection of stamps and as i missed the challenge date to enter my card I found it also fits in with the challenge over at Charisma Cardz 'try something new'

Tim Holtz Shabby French
Stampin Up - Rose Red c/s, Choc chip ink & Antique jumbo Eyelets

Hope you all have a Fabby weekend, as always thank you so much for taking the time to visit me. I love reading your comments : )

I would also like to enter my card into the following challenges
Totally Gorjuss - Flowers
Charisma Cardz - Try a new technique (crackled glass)
Fab n Funky - What Eva
A Spoon Full Of Sugar - Animal (seagull)
Stamptacular Sunday - Distress it
Pile it On - Layers

This card is out of this world - GORGEOUS - Emma! Fabulous detail - truly fabulous! A real delight! BUT if that porthole - which is already cracked - suddenly shatters, Tilda will need to let go of that anchor or she will sink with the ship! Captain Edwin really needs to take more care to get his vessel ship-shape! Warmest wishes, Lesley
