How are you? Tilda Magnolia card

 
Here is a card I made recently. Instead of "get well" or" best wishes" the sentiment is" How are you?"

 I have used this gorgeous Tilda image.

Items used:

Colouring - Copics

Flowers, Wild Orchid

Sentiment - computer generated

Butterfly - Martha Stewart

Border punch - Martha Stewart

DP - Wild Rose Studio

Ribbon

Stickles

I didn't have enough of the DP to finish of the inside so I just did a panel with the matching border

Do you think this would cheer someone up?

Thank you for looking and your comments . I love to read them

Hugs Sarah x

This card is for sale on Ebay

Sample cards.......and it's so cold!

Good morning everyone. I hope you are all warmer than me. It is quite cold here in Wolverhampton. But it is worse in my house as I have no hot water or central heating. My boiler broke down, again a few days ago and hopefully the man is coming to fix it today. He was only here 3 weeks ago for the same problem. I might as well fix him up a room! I am aslo having internet problems so I am blogging now while I have the chance.

Anyway, here are some of the cards I made on Monday for Sarah at Hotshotcrafts. She is at the Glasgow show this week so if you are going please say hello to her. Just say Sarah sent you! (yes we are both called Sarah)

Dienamics flower die

 

I had to show you this card. Yesterday in the post a received the Die-namics rolled flower die from my blogging friend Mary J. She said the flowers are a bit fiddly but I had a go anyway. They are a bit tricky but I am sure with practice I will get better. Here is my first attempt. You must check out Mary's blog as she makes wonderful cards and her flowers are lovely!

Guest Designer for Passion for Promarkers

Well I am so happy because for the next 4 weeks I am a GDT on Passion for Promarkers. Can you imagine how excited I am? I am also very nervous but the girls on the team have all said hello and that they are just an email away if I need help. I hope they are sitting close to their computers!
The challenge this week is " Back to Nature"

The first card I made was a digital image of a Bee in the rain and the sentiment "Why does Nature have to be so wet????". I guess it should be "so white" with all the recent snow!!!!! I put Glossy accents over the umbrella, raindrops and puddle.

However I wasn't happy with it so instead I made a memo pad holder. The base and top were cut from a Sizzix die and covered with Wild Rose Studio papers which you can buy here. I distressed the edges with Distress inks. The pad was stuck onto the base and I tied an Organza ribbon on the top corner. The image is a stamp from Elusive Images ( I think). I used various shades of pink and green Promarkers. Finally I added Crackle Glaze to the coloured image. You can just about see it on the photo.

The sponsors this week, offering  a set of 5 Promarkers, are Letraset. And you can NEVER have too many Promarkers!!!!!
Don't forget to check out the DT blogs too for great cards and inspiration.

More snow!!!!!

What is happening with the weather? We had blue sky and sunshine and literally 10 minutes later we had a blizzard! The snow was so heavy you could hardly see. I was in a shop at the time ( a craft shop actually. What a surprise) and had to stay a bit longer until the snow lessened. Of course that meant I had to but a bit more stuff. Oh dear. Ten minutes later brilliant sunshine and blue skies again.
However as I type up this post it is dark again outside and the snow is heavy. So glad I have plenty of crafting goodies to keep me busy!
Actually I have just finished another Exploding box for the same friend. She has just become a Grandma again to a little boy. So another blue box.
Well here are some of the cards I made in my marathon card make on Monday. I never had time to photo all of them  including the new Wild Rose studio stamps girl, dogs and cats.  Sarah has them for sale at Hotshotcrafts.
Love from a very cold Sarah XXX
