Happy Birthday Sophie ♥ ♥ ♥


Hi There
To share today is a card I made for my daughter ♥ Sophie's ♥ 14th Birthday.
I haven't made her a card for a few years, thinking she would be just fed up of them, but this year she actually asked for one.
I used my favourite image of the moment Princess Pea Tilda from the Once Upon a Time Collection.

Princess Pea Tilda

 Morning Everyone  ♥
I hope you are all enjoying your week so far.
 
 
 
 
I made my project a couple of weeks ago for my ♥ Mum's ♥ 70th Birthday (though she looks more like 60!)
My Mum and Dad live on the canal side, so always have Ducks and Swans nesting in their garden. Its so beautiful and my Mum has much love for them.
So when Sandra showed me the Swan template, I knew it would be perfect
 for her. You must go over and check out Sandra's Template shop, she has lots of amazing templates. The Swan template you will find HERE...Thankyou Sandra ♥
I did manage to sneak in a tiny button for the eye :D

 Riding the Swan is Princess Pea Tilda from the Once Upon a Time Collection 2013
Ive used 2 DooHickeys Flags and the new Flags from the new collection.
 All embellishments are from the Ribbon Girls shop. I have used Hip rose Buds Pink, Open Roses Pink, Ivory Tulle, 3mm Irridescent Ivory Bead String, 12mm White lave and Pearl Trim, 25mm Fuchsia Sheer Ribbon, Beaded Sprig White and 3 Stems irridescent hearts
 
Thankyou so much for taking time to visit me.

Sweet Pea Tilda

 
Hiya I hope you are all OK :D ♥ 
 
It's Re-Cylcle time at MDUC this week.
 
 
For my Recycling I used a Recycled Paper Bag and Cola Cans...or in this particular case it was a Jack Daniels and Coke Can .... You can find my earlier Tutorial from a few years ago....HERE
 
 
 
I then coloured them using Alcohol Inks( Yes more alcohol!!!). I tried to colour the feathers as close to Peacock colours as I could.
 I was actually surprised how well the Doohickeys cut through the metal.
For the Butterflies I used Spellbinders

 
Tilda was Sweet Pea Tilda

Papers were also Magnolia
Turquoise Rose Ornament....so LOVING these,,,,also from the new Collection.
 
Also pop over to see who the new DT are at MDUC....you WONT be disappointed Im sure :D
We couldnt just have two!!! When we saw who had entered......We had to have 4!!!!!
Well done ladies
 
Byeeee from me for now
