Freezin' Season at Tilda's Town

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas! Seriously...where is the snow? We still don't have any signs of snow here in Chicago. But the winds are getting colder...soon enough, it's gonna be Freezin' Season!
Well, speaking of Freezin' Season... this is our theme for this week's challenge at
Tilda's Town

For my DT card, I used  Christmas Bear from the Little Christmas Collection. I colored the image with DI's. I used white acrylic paint and fine glitter for snowy effects on the edges. And I used it also on the Poinsettia and snowflakes.

DI used:

Fur: Antique Linen, Vintage Photo

Inner ear/belly/paws: Tea Dye

Scarf & Hat: Barn Door, Fired Brick, Pumice Stone

Background: Weathered Wood

TIlda's Town: Celebrate Christmas

It's the last Friday of November! Can you imagine that? Time really flies.  Ok, because it's Friday, it means we have another challenge at Tilda's Town!
This week our theme is:
CELEBRATE CHRISTMAS
I think this is going to be an easy one for everybody.

My card is one of my Christmas flat cards.  I used Dancing Tilda with Stars and she is my favorite stamp from the Little Christmas Collection 2012.

I colored Tilda with Copics. I didn't plan to color her using the "no black lines" technique.  I accidently switched the covers of my Memento Tuxedo Black and London Fog ink pads.  And because I stamped it on MIC blending card (which is like precious gold to me and I didn't want to waste it) I had to color it just as it was! And I kinda like how it turned out!

Copics used:

Skin: E0000, 000, 00, 21

Hair: E47, 37, 35, 33, 51

Red: R89, 29, 27, 24, 22

Wings/White stripes: W3, 2, 1, 0

 The red and white flowers and the holly leaves are from Wild Orchid Crafts and the pine cone

and berries are from Hobby Lobby.  The DP is from Glitz and the metal corner, lace and ribbon (which is not visible) is from my stash.  The sentiment/calendar is from LOTV.

Now it's your turn. Link up your Christmas creations and share it with us at Tilda’s Town Challenge for a chance to win $15 GC  at

Merry Christmas

Hello Friday! We are ready for the weekend! We also have a new challenge at
Tilda's Town
This week our theme is Merry Christmas.
 No explanation needed because I have seen lots of Christmas cards in blogland and cyberspace so this is going to be an easy one.

 My (flat) card today features a stamp from the Little Christmas Collection and I love this because it's an image with a sentiment! I colored Tilda with Copics and I cut her out. I also used the poinsettia and vintage tag DooHickey.  The snowflakes are from Lifestyle Crafts and the twigs/branch is from Marianne Designs. The berries, I made by myself using red and white stamens painted with Glossy Accents and dipped in extra fine glitter.

A closer look at Tilda.

The pearl brad is from Michael's.

Now, it's your turn to show us your creations. For more inspiration, check out what my team mates came up with. Link up Tilda's Town and link back to us for a chance to win a $15 gift certificate from
Tilda's Town.

Tilda in Red

Hi there! I have a card that I managed to finish while waiting for my son to finish writing his research report. The image is from the Little Christmas Collection.  And I colored the image with my Copic Sketch Markers. I used a red Magnolia Christmas paper and a handful of dies for my embellishments. I also used Diamond Stickles and acrylic paint for the snow effect on the trees.

MDUC: Colour Combo ( Red, White & Silver)     ( I was the winner! )

Anything Goes Challenge: Early Christmas

Little Tilda Christmas Tag

Have you seen the upcoming collection from Magnolia? It's the "first" collection of Christmas stamps for 2012. The Little Christmas Collection. One of the stamps in this collection is "Little Tilda" and I made a Christmas tag using the image. 

I went for a blue and brown color scheme that's why the highlights of her black hair is blue. So, scroll down to see more photos of my tag.

I hope you like my version of a Christmas tag using one of the new images from Magnolia.
