Customer Contributions

It's so great when customers send me thank you cards and samples of their work. These 2 gorgeous cards were sent in from Val Donohue and I just love them so much that I’m actually using them on display in the shop and they're coming to shows with us.

This card is just amazing:



It’s the ice ballet princess stamp design from tilda. What a transformation being in these monochromatic colours. I just love it.
And all that attention to detail with a self adhesive gem as part of her hair accessory, and a heart gem on tilda's top. Glitter on the neckline and bow for added bling:




And, something I haven't done for ages, is using a score board/box maker to create these embossing lines to give added interest as well as a nice little dotted line to help frame the frame!!:



Here's another one Val sent me, with a gated front. This is Valentine Tilda:










Love the self adhesive pearl gem in the centre of the flower and the way she's used her nestabilities to create a scallop frame.

Thanks Val, these are just wonderful.

For those of you who are loving your tildas, the new collection "catching butterflies" should be with us, hopefully, next week.
