Tiddly Inks Tuesday

Another Tuesday has rolled around, which means it is time for the next Tiddly Inks Challenge.

This week the challenge is:

Boys will be boys- Snake, snails and puppy dog tails.

I struggled to say the very least.

It took all my might to create a boy card and not use pretty things.

You may notice though that I couldn't resist using my liquid pearls, but they were blue so I told myself it was okay lol.

For this card I used Hi There-Boy and Steampunk Papers - Extra Goodies.

If you want to participate in this challenge and see some amazing inspiration, check out the Tiddly Inks Challenge Blog for all the details.

Thanks for joining me on this fabulous Tuesday.

Tiddly Inks Tuesday

Hi everyone and welcome to another episode of Tiddly Inks Tuesday.

This week there is another fabulous challenge on the Tiddly Inks Challenge Blog.

What is it you may ask!!  It is simple really, you have to use clear acrylic somewhere on your card or creation.

Think clear acrylic card, acrylic albums, even shrinky dinks count.

Here is what I cam up with using a square of clear acrylic, which I think may have been the front of an album.

I really wish I would have taken step by step photos, because I love the way this turned out.

I covered the clear acrylic with alcohol ink to create that gorgeous mottled effect.  I then backed the acrylic with book print and sponged around the edges with white paint to give it a frosted feel.

I then added all those beautiful embellishments, and of course the focus point of my project using the delightful Tiddly Inks image You and Me.

If you would love to play along with the fabulously fun challenge be sure to head over to the challenge blog for all the details and to see some more utterly creative projects from the rest of the Tiddly Inkers.

Thank you so much for stopping by today

Although the nights are still a little chilly.

Around the world the seasons are changing and that it was this weeks challenge on the Tiddly Inks Challenge Blog is all about.

This week we say goodbye summer, hello fall.

Back To School Bookmark

I decided to make a cute little corner bookmark for my daughter using the delightful Party Time Pixies.

 

I always believe there is a little piece of magic in books.  They take you to places you could only dream of, and I think it is a magical thing to see my daughter reading and enjoying her books. Love, love, love it!

Here is a little photo of the bookmark in action.

Tiddly Tuesday time again :)

Hello again.

Welcome to another Tiddly Tuesday.

This week on the challenge blog you are asked to create a thankyou card for.....a teacher.

Teachers play an enormous role in our children's lives, and I am sure that sometimes this could be a tough task.  I struggle with my two girls, let alone taming a class full of kiddies.

My daughter adores her Year 1 teacher, so I decided to make this very special card for her.

This card uses the cute little Versa Bugg, which can be found here, or in this fantastic Bugg Mega Pack.

I coloured this little Bugg with brown hair just like Miss Kayla, and also with a green dress, matching her uniform.

The card is made using a the Apple template from My Scrap Chick. I am loving shaped cards lately!!

Be sure to head over to the challenge blog to see the other amazing Teacher Thank you cards from the rest of the Tiddly Inkers.  

Good luck with this challenge.

Tiddly Hello

Doesn't it just melt your heart.

I am really going to have to try this cool technique....adding it to my to-do list now.

I hope you have a wonderful week.

Tiddly Inks Tuesday

Welcome to another Tiddly Inks Tuesday.

Boy oh boy the weeks are just flying past aren't they!! Before we know it the year will be gone, and it will be Christmas time.

Maybe I shouldn't get too far ahead of myself and just worry about this week :)

What is this weeks Tiddly Inks challenge you may ask?  

Well your challenge if you choose to accept it, is to create a jumbo tag or use a ticket somewhere on your creation. Too easy!!!

Here is my jumbo tag using You Are On My Mind.

The pink hair was inspired by one of my daughter's La La Loopsy dolls, which we played with a lot while they were on school holidays.  They are funny little dolls, but my girls just adore them.  

I can't wait to see what wonderful creations you come up with this week.  I know all of us Tiddly Inkers love looking at you cards!!

LOVE THEM!!!

Prepare to be blown away by some absolutely amazing Steampunk and Victorian images. Not to mention some phenomenal creations by both teams.

I am off now to check out some more amazing creations from the two teams.

Reel me in!!

That is this weeks challenge over on the Tiddly Inks Challenge Blog.

You have to create a card based on a scary or summer movie!!

Now I am a bit of a sook, and I really don't like scary movies.  But that didn't stop me from being inspired by the scary movie What Lies Beneath for this weeks challenge.

The whole bath scene freaked me out (lol I did say I was a sook).

The card didn't turn out scary at all though :) The image used in this card is Take me Away.

So be sure to pop over to the challenge blog for some inspiration from the Design team and to enter this weeks challenge.

I can't wait to see what scary or summer movies will inspire you!

Don't forget it is only a couple of days until the joint release of new Digi stamps from Tiddly Inks and Make it Crafty.

Be sure to check out all the action here and to see a sneaky peek.

I will be back very soon.

Tiddly Hello

Welcome to another Tiddly Tuesday.

For those of  you on the South-east coast of Australia, I hope you have managed to stay warm and out of the wind.

We have some big bay windows at the back of our house, and listening to them rattle last night with the wind made me very uneasy.  Then again everything sounds worse and scarier at night.  I am such a sook lol.

While it is still freezing and windy today, it is a good opportunity to catch up on crafty projects.  

This is a little Tiddly Inks creation I have made.

This sweet little image is called Catch my Heart.

Those cute flowers in the background are also a Tiddly Inks digi that I have printed directly onto cardstock.  It is the Flower Garden digital stamp and it also comes with some digital papers as well.  

There are so many exciting things going on over at Tiddly Inks at the moment.

Challenges resumed this week.  This weeks challenge is ATTITUDE.  Think skulls and bad to the bone.  If you want to participate head over to the Tiddly Inks Challenge Blog to find out more.

Thank you so much for joining me today.

I made two cards for this weeks challenge. The first is an easel card that uses Annabelle

Make a wish..

Hi again.

I am back today to share another Tiddly Inks creation. There are so many cute and enchanting fairies to choose from as you browse the Tiddly Inks shop, but I simply could not resist this little beauty.

The name of this delightful image is Cast Your Spell. As this was a magical image I decided it needed a bit of fairy dust...(aka glitter).  This idea was inspired by the delightful Christy Croll's sample, which you will see when you visit the image in the shop.

Here is a better view of the glitter.

All sparkly and pretty :)

Be sure to check out the fabulous Tiddly Inks blog for a great freebie and also a new groovy image. There is also some wonderful blog candy being given away, so be sure to participate in that!! Freebies are always good.

Then pop over to the Challenge Blog to have a look and maybe even participate in this weeks challenge. The challenge for this week is.....Darling Diva. The Tiddly Inkers have created some gorgeous samples to get those creative juices flowing.

Thank you so much for popping in today.

I will be back again soon.

Manly Men!

Manly Men...that is this weeks challenge over on the Tiddly Inks Challenge blog. So celebrate the men in our lives by creating a card using a Tiddly Inks image.

I will be honest and admit that I struggled a bit with this challenge because I don't really make male cards.  I am not sure why. Hmmm something to think about. I guess everything I do is very girly because I have been blessed with two little princesses. So I tried to the best of my abilities to pull together a male card and this is what I came up with.

In this card I used Take A Stand  and added my own words to the signs using Photoshop....gotta love digi images! 

So I hope you will join in with us for this weeks challenge, I would love to be inspired to make more manly cards from your gorgeous creations.

A new adventure!

I am so excited to announce that I am one of the newest members of the Tiddly Inks Design Team. 

I was thrilled when I received an email from the very lovely Christy Croll asking me if I wanted to be a part of her fabulous team.  How could I refuse the chance to play with such cute images and work with an amazing bunch of ladies!

Here is a Tiddly Ink creation using the very cute Be Mine image.

I am so excited and can't wait to share all my Tiddly Inks creations with you!
