Magical - New GDT - Top Tip Tuesday





Good morning look at me i am the lucky person Guesting this fortnight at TOP TIP TUESDAY so excited and wow what a challenge.
This fortnight is being hosted by Elaine and she has asked us to create something
MAGICAL 
 ie DRAGONS, FAIRIES or something in that theme
The sponsor & prize for this challenge is
Sponsor and Prize



So let me share my card for your inspiration before you hop over to the blog to checkout the magical creations by the team
 and a close up of  this fab image from Rick St Dennis called 50 winks
I have coloured my image with my promarkers and have used co ordination card stock for the matting frame and jo anna sheen butterfly die. The Dp is from Dovecraft Princess fairytale and have embellished it with some satin Ribbon and Gems. I have added a touch of glitter to the wings but not sure if it shows.
I have a Tip for you
If you are sticking ribbon to your card with double sided tape. Stick the tape to the ribbon first then cut to length. This will help seal the ends to prevent fraying. A touch of PVA on the ends of ribbon when you have tied your bow will stop fraying too
Well hope you like and can come and play along with us this next 2 weeks and dont forget to share a tip
Thanks for popping by and I will be back tomorrow with some more creations

Stars Stripes Or how about Both

Stars Stripes or how about both is this weeks challenge that started Friday. Hope you like because I picked it as it was Amercian Indepence Day and this weekend there was so much happenning in the Uk with the final of the Tennis omg wasnt that a match and also the Tour de France visiting Yorkshire so lots of stars on our TV and soil.
Now you can pick any theme just as long as it has either Stars or Stripes so this could be male or female.

Our fab and generous sponsor is 
BUGABOO STAMPS 
who is giving the winner a wooping 7 images of their choice.
 So if you havent entered what are you waiting for.
This weekend was my sisters youngests 11th birthday such a shame she isnt with us anymore to see him grow up but his grandparents are doing a fab job. So my card is for his birthday.

The DP is echo park sweet girl and I have used memory box star circle cut in half and placed around the image. Die cut Jacks name and added some faux stitching. The image is coloured with promarkers and then 3d glossed for that expoxy effect. The silver mirri layer has been embossed with a cuttlebug birthday folder and of course i had to add a little ribbon hidden behind the layers if you look closely.
Hope you like as much as Jack did and he had a fab birthday with lots of family and friends about visiting him. So now it is your turn and this week it get the very hard decision of picking the top three thankfully my teamies do have some input. Also have you seen the fab job our new GDT has done not forgetting our current GDT wow they are both keeping us on our toes so go check them out. If you click on there names it will jump you to there blog so you can leave them some love.
Have a lovely day the sun is trying hard to peep through the clouds so i will go walk the dog.

For my card I went with the Wedding Theme and used  'Rory Chimney Sweep' by Lacy Sunshine Stamps and sentiment from The Cutting CafĂ©
somewhere in i have in my mind that these are lucky like black cats. Well I think she is a cutie. No designer paper just card from the papermill. A cherry Lynn heart die on the side some ribbon and some lucky heather. Of course I had to add some bling some some lovely pearls to finish. The cobbles are my doodle dont look too closely not that keen should have done then lighter colour. Used mostly warm grey tones on promarkers
