Gold Tilda and Sketch Challenges


I made this card for two challenges. The totallytilda.blogspot Gold and Glitz and justmagnolia.blogspot the Sketch Week Challenge. I made a gold metallic 5x7 card added a white shimmer card overlay then a metallic gold card layer over that. I embossed the gold layer with my cuttlebug and painted the raised parts with gold extreme glitter paint.


Hoping you can see the glitter and shine!


I used a Tilda stamped image. I colored her in copics and then added gold extreme
glitter paint to the dress and hair. I added hologram extreme glitter paint to the wings
and lace on her dress. I added gold stickles to the wings and cut her out.


I cut a Gold metallic square card and added a white shimmer card overlay. I used a glitter pen to make stars and then added stickles on top to make it stand out more. I cut a gold shaped card piece for Tilda to sit on and painted it with extreme glitter paint and attached it to the square. I popped Tilda up with dimentionals and attached her.


I stamped my greeting on white shimmer card and heat embossed it in gold. I attached it to a gold card backing and applied it to the bottom of the square under Tildas feet so it over hung. I cut a piece of white and of gold card and painted the gold card with extreme glitter paint. I placed the gold on the white shimmer and attached it to the card. I then popped up the square with Tilda and the greeting on it with dimentionals.


I painted three Prima flowers with my copics and gold extreme glitter paint. I used gold stickles for the flower centers on the gold and two white glittered Prima flowers and added them to my card.

Pearls with Tilda Happy Holiday Card


I made a 5x7 pink card and applied two christmas prints from a christmas stack. I added a strip of green to cover the join.


I designed my greeting on the computer and printed it on white
and added it to a green card background. I used dimentionals to mount it on the card. I put some pretty pearls down the green strip.


I used a stamped Tilda image and colored her with copics.

used a green glitter pen on the gift trim. I cut a frame with my cricut

Tilda Red and Green Sketch Card


This 5x7 red card was made for justmagnolia.blogspot sketch challenge and craftsandmechallenges.blogspot Add some Glitter and pollycraftchallengeblog A Glittery Christmas as well as lexiscreations.blogspot Traditional Christmas Colors.
The background print has another print on the other side and I cut it
for that one but funny thing I turned it over and saw I had a perfect cut with
a greeting on the paper right where I needed it! So I used that side and
changed my colors. I used a holly berry print from a Christmas stack and
cut two pieces and put them on a green card background and attached to my card.


I used a Gift Wrapped Tilda image and colored her with
copics and colored over the wrapping with rose extreme glitter paint.
I popped her up on a green oval card with a red card at the bottom and then
applied it to a slightly bigger red oval cardstock. I popped it up with dimentionals.


I used some prima flowers with green rhinestones in the center. You can see
