Tilda In The Summer Rain - Totally Tilda DT Card

Good morning peeps,

I've had a very busy morning so far! I woke up thinking I hadn't seen my bow easy for a while (strange I know lol) so me being me had to shoot out of bed & start trashing my craft room trying to find it! I did blitz my craft room yesterday which is probably why I suddenly realised it was missing & I still can't find it! I hope I haven't thrown it out accidentally & I know it's going to bug me so I'll have to keep looking.

Did you see I'm a cover girl?  Our lovely Steph at Simon Says Stamp emailed me a while ago asking if I had a beach / sea themed card they could use in their advert on the back of Magnolia Ink, yaaaaayyyyyy lol. There was no time to make a new card as the deadline was so close so I scoured my blog and sent a couple of pictures of  cards I made last year & was so excited & honoured when Steph said they were perfect & they would use one :)

Right now on to business!

 Today is new challenge day at

TOTALLY TILDA

& this fortnight we'd love to see your creations in

RED, WHITE & BLUE

My lovely teamies have come up with the most gorgeous creations as always, pop over and take a peek.

I've had a bit of a confidence wobble with my copics so as you can see I've gone running back to my comfort zone and cracked open my distressed inks and have gone all pastel & distressed lol.

 Thanks to all my lovely friends for all your advice & encouragement with using the copics, being stubborn I am not giving up,  I will learn to use them properly lol.
