Tiddly cupcake

I am finally back with a new Tiddly Inks card! I have had maternity leave on the Tiddly Inks team until now, but today marks the start of a new challenge and I wanted to take part in this month’s dotty adventure. To mark my return I’ve used one of my all time favourite Tiddly Inks stamp, eat more cake!

The paper is by Maja Design and the chipboard is by Make it Crafty.

Copics used: (skin) E0000, E00, E02, E13, E15, (hair) E21, E25, E29, E35, (blue) B02, B04, B06, B39, (pink) RV52, RV55, RV66, RV69

Wryn – Just a note

It is November already! Yikes! Time is flying super fast it feels like and I’m struggling to keep up! Anyway, new month means new Tiddly Inks challenge on the challenge blog! The theme this month is Divine Dimension!

Ok, so this was a bit of a struggle for me. I think I’ve simply been making too many CAS cards as of late, because it certainly felt like I wasn’t able to think of anything remotely useful! I did however end up making a shaker card in a darker green colour with a dusty pink to go with. I must say, I do really quite like this combination and I’m very pleased with how it all turned out in the end! The stamp I went with this time around is Wryn – Just a note.

The chipboards are by Make it Crafty, which I coloured up with Copics as well, papers are by Papirdesign and Maja Design. The frame die and the butterflies are La-La Land Crafts.

Here you can see the card laying down flat with the pearls in the shaker area more spread out and how various layers have some dimension to them.

Copics used: (skin) E000, E00, E02, E13, E15, (hair) E08, E18, E19, E97, (dress) G21, G40, G82, (note) V000, V91, V93, V95 + white pen

Tiddly Viking

Yesterday was Friday and it was time for a new Tiddly creation from me. I decided to use one of the new stamps, the super cute Wryn Viking to You. Oh, how I love her! So glad she’s finally in Viking outfit! The paper is by Papirdesign and the sentiment from MFT Stamps.

Here is a photo where you can see the colouring a bit closer.

Beary sweet bookmark

It is no secret that I love to read. I don’t read a large amount of books a year or anything, but I do try to get through one or two a month. So far this year I have finished four. One, potentially bad, habit I have is to read several books at the same time. Generally they are very different kinds of books, and I prefer to have one in Norwegian and one in English at least. I am currently reading three. This means I require a few bookmarks, and as I couldn’t find two of them when I started on my most recent book I decided it was time to make the bookmark I’d said I would make to match the one I made for the kid in January. Obviously mine had to be in a blue/teal kind of colour!

I decided to use the same stamp, as I think she’d like that. It is Beary Sweet from Tiddly Inks and I’ve coloured it in with Copics before I cut it out by hand. I adore Wryn wearing her panda hat! The tag was made using Silhouette Portrait 2. (I really don’t like that machine, but I’m finally finding something where it is semi-useful and cuts where I want (ish!).) All the papers are from Bazzill (plain) and Maja Design (patterned). I’ve used dies by Memory Box and candi by Craftwork Cards, and some random ribbon I had laying about which colour fit perfectly! I love it when that happens!

I decided to use another of the stamps in that set on the back side of the bookmark. It took a moment to find a quote I liked that I could have on the back as well, and I chose this one by C. S. Lewis. I absolutely loved watching Narnia every Easter and Christmas when I grew up. It was the old BBC series and it was worth getting up to watch it every morning for sure. The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe was my favourite, and as I still enjoy that story, I thought the quote was perfect! To make sure everybody knows that it’s my bookmark, I added a my name behind the quote.

Here you can see the front and back together in one photo.

Wryn birthday girl

A little girl liked my lollipop Christmas cards, so when her birthday was coming up, I had to make one of these for her! I used Wryn Birthday Girl by Tiddly Inks and coloured it up with Copics. A little bit of glitter was needed and she loved it!
