Allsorts DT Wk 123 - Use more than 5 Flowers

Yippee, it's Saturday again, and I am ready for a well earned rest as I have been working hard all week on my Level 3 childcare coursework. I was panicking thinking I wouldn't finish it in time to hand in next Tuesday but I ploughed through it so I've earnt myself some much needed craft R & R!
As it's Saturday it's time to share another
 DT card with you, this week the theme is hosted by Helene and she would like to see you
 'use at least 5 flowers'
 on your cards/projects, easy peasy, I guess everyone does that without even thinking about it, I know I do!

For today's challenge I made a teepee card, based on one I saw made in Magnolia ink magazine No 3 issue this year (I think), Ying made a mini one, using cardstock 3"x3". I made mine using 6"x6" cardstock.

 On the first side I hung a pumpkin charm off one of the Tim Holtz flowers:




A little bit of paper piecing going on with this Tilda.
I made a garland of flowers to sit over the top of the teepee as it looked a bit bare around the top section.

Magnolia Tilda gathering Straws, Tilda with sunflower and Tilda picking mushrooms
Magnolia Doo HickeyTag die
SU corner photo punch
Bo Bunny - Forever Fall 6"x6" paper pad, BG Hopscotch paper pad

Gearing up for Autumn

Hi all, sorry it's taken so long since my last blog. I been a busy girl on days out with the family. I am exhausted after day trip to London and glad to get back to crafting for a rest! The card I have made was inspired by two Magnolia challenges, tied in a sketch with an autumn feel. Played about with my new Tilda image and decided to paper piece her dress as it looked better than my colouring! I chose to give her knee high boots and jodpur style leggings instead of turn-up jeans. I decoupaged the acorn and ended up doing a mixture of cross-stitch and running stitch around the edge using orange and brown embroidery silks.




Challenges I would like to enter:
Just Magnolia - sketch
Magnolia Stamp lovers - Autumn

I used: Cosmo cricket paper - Earth Love
Magnolia - Tilda with straw
SU - Touch of nature stamps, sentiment and acorn


Thanks for stopping by
