TILDA'S GOING BACK TO SCHOOL - TOTALLY TILDA & ADDICTED TO STAMPS DT & Mini Candy Winners

Hello peeps,
As I missed my DT post last Sunday for Totally Tilda due to being ill, today I have combined two DT posts which I've not done before, oh how lazy am I lol. I am feeling so much better but still don't have a lot of energy, I expect I need extra chocolate to give me a boost lol.

My DT challenges are
and
As always my lovely teamies have created some beautiful projects, please pop over and take a peek


I originally decided to just make the bookmark but hadn't realised how quick & easy they are to make so I carried on and decorated a notebook too.
Ingredients -
Medium - Copics
Paper - GCD Studio, Ella Blue
Flower - Prima
Brad - Whiff of Joy
Ingredients not previously listed -
Pearls - Melissa Frances & string of pearls from local craft shop
Lace - The Ribbon Girl

I've also used the Tim Holtz Vintage Market alphabet die on my notebook and cut the letters out using Kraft cardstock. All the distressing I have done using Vintage Photo distressed ink, and to crimp the Kraft paper I've used a Papermania paper crimper

The flowers are from Wild Orchid and the zig zag leaves are a Marianne Creatables die.
The little keys charm I bought ages ago from a local shop and forgot I had and I've added a Magnolia Heart Keyhole stamp just above the charm.
On the inside back cover I've added a sweet Cross Stitched Tilda and used the brown flowery paper on both of the inside covers which is also from the Ella Blue pad.
On the back cover I've added a Magnolia Apple stamp and I've also added it to the inside of the front cover, along with stardust stickles for some lovely sparkle

I'm entering my school projects in the following challenges -
TOMIC  - Back To School, Totally Papercrafts - not a card, Hanna & Friends - brown + 1, If The Shoe Fits - back to school, Simply Create - Here comes the bus
Now for the winners of my fancy pins as selected by hubby -

Please email me your full addy's ladies moominstacey@live.co.uk and I will pop your prizes in the post.
There will be more little pin giveaways very soon.
I need to spend about 3 days solid catching up with you all now I think lol.

Thanks for stopping by
