It is sitting next to a K&Co box of 12x12 papers and album - so you can see how tiny it is.
I have also decided to add Tilda/Edwin images to all of the panels.
The two panels with the sitting Tildas are now finished but I'm still thinking about how to decorate the other two panels now the stamped images are mounted on them.
I think one thing I have learnt from this pic session is DON'T TAKE PICS OF THINGS ON A YELLOW PAINTED WALL WHEN THE LIGHT IS NAFF - it looks like it is suffering from flash bounce-back LOL...Still, at least I now know how to work this PC and I know I can import pics. Yipeeeeeeeeeeeee, one very happy bunny here..................................
I went for a tent-fold from a sheet of A4 leather effect blue CS and attached a large panel of paisley PP (Costco - 300 sheet 12x12 pack). The Kenny K digi image was coloured with Copic pens.
I made use of two of the ATC size marbled panels that I made on Saturday. This one was done on matt white card...
...and this one was done on glossy white card.
The design is using this weeks sketch over at "Less is More" and I will also be entering it into the "Creative Craft World" Christmas in June - Card Crazy Challenge.
I went prepared LOL
All the techniques tried were used on ATC sized pieces of paper and card.
We played with the new Distress Inks, Distress Ink pads, Adirondack Inks and Ink pads. Embossing, De-bossing, Marbling and Stamping. We used greyboard, glossy card, matt card, foiled (not miri) card, Kraft Resist papers and a variety of dies & embossing folders.
Playing with colour combinations is one of the great things about Andy's classes - he lets us try anything we fancy...something we probably wouldn't do at home a) because we wouldn't have the range of products and b) we would probably be concerned about wasting stuff. 
Of all the ATC sized pieces that we ended up with we chose 8 to mount on a display board (a sheet of A4 greyboard covered with Kraft resist paper that we had coloured however we wanted.
The challenge theme for TOMIC is 'Summer' either summer themed stamps or the word summer somewhere on the project. For Just Magnolia the theme is Butterflies.
The first panel has a mix of hand cut flowers from one of the Kaiser Utopia PPs and buds & blooms from various sources. Flat back gems & pearls were used as flower centres to add a bit of bling and Glitterations letters were used to 'spell-out'..."Summer Fun".
The bottom panel has Tilda sitting on and surrounded by more flowers - with a couple of Glitteration butterflies.
...isn't it lovely. The PPs are from the KaiserKraft Utopia range and we also have rub-ons, flowers, bling and a bare Bracket album.
As you can see, I've already started cutting out flowers from some of the PPs and I've stuck PP to the pages of the album.
I've decided not to make the album into an album IYKWIM - I intend to use the covered pages to create something else but I'm going to keep that as a surprise for a little while..................
The only 'colour' on the image is Tilda's dress & shoes.
As you can see - it creates quite a contrast to Edwin who only appears in grey.
I was wondering if I would actually get this challenge completed as I didn't have any PPs that I thought would be suitable for this size image. Lucky me...I bought the latest copy of 'Quick cards made easy' today and the free gift was a 6x6 paper stack of Pink Petticoat Wild Blossoms - perfect!
For my card I decided to print something off of the PC. I didn't print it directly onto the card because I wasn't sure I'd be able to 'place' it just where I wanted so a bit of 'print, trim & stick'.
I edged the panel with some black Glitterations border strips.
The inside of the card reveals what "M" is for...
The basic card follows the sketch layout and obviously you can see that I've kept to the red/white/blue scheme that was required for the colour challenge.
This Kenny K image was perfect for the 'feel' I was trying to get with this card.
I've also been very good using up scraps from previous projects so I didn't have to break into any new stash.
When I read the challenge all I could think of was racing cars and checkered flags but couldn't think how I was going to achieve something along those lines. This morning I popped into the 99p Store and happened to spot packs of partyware on just that theme. 
I attached one of the paper plates to a tent-fold 6" sq white card blank. Then attached my Kenny K image (coloured with Copic pens) to the rim of the plate.
I used the Glitteration letters in a mix of upper & lower case to make the sentiment.
The panel on the front was embossed using a calendar embossing folder through a Cuttlebug. The panel was trimmed slightly then using a choice of three colours the panel was spritzed with the spray chalks - I used blue, lavendar & lime. Once dry the raised parts were highlighted using a distressed ink pad - I went with a mauve shade (I really should have noted which colours I was using LOL). The front & back covers were made from two, slightly smaller than A5 pieces of card which were edged using an EK success border punch. The panel was attached and then some random stamping was done - on & off the page.
A large journal page stamp was used to create the note panels for each of the inside pages - once stamped they were trimmed down to ensure they fit.
Distress ink pads were used to colour the pages and I decided to stick with the three colours that I used for the front panel so that it all tied together. The journal panels were then attached.
I used the same stamp that I had used on the cover to decorate the pages.
The back cover was also decorated using the same small stamp.
Here is my Patch Tilda sitting comfortably upon the word 'create' - apt don't you think.
The word was covered in KI Memories skinny stripe PP. I was so greatful to have my Basic Grey file set to smooth off all the edges ready for Tilda to sit on the 'e' & 'a'. She has her own flower sitting right by her.
A Frayed Burlap Distress Ink pad was applied to bits of the edge - I didn't want a solid line of inking around the word. A mix of blooms were then attached at the start of the word...
...and some more at the end with some tiny satin bows thrown in for good measure.
...a notebook I hear you saying with a questioning tone - yep a note book. I know, I have a Bind-it-All and if I needed a notebook I could easily have made one but this was too good to pass by. It is A5, has lots of pages in a good quality paper, wipe clean covers and it was only £1 in the clearance section of WHS. I could never have made one for that.
...and when I've completed my item and posted it on the challenge site I can print off some wallet size pics for sticking in the book.
...it is a record of the challenges that I'm interested in (and have entered) and also a record of the designs that I have come up with so that if I'm stuck for inspiration I have something to look at.
...because I can even print-off copies of sketches that are sometimes part of the challenge and then I have that readily to hand too.
This was one of my Nan's photos that we all got copies of. The babe sat on Nan's lap in this studio snap is my Dad...Mum has a photo of my sister at a similar age and the likeness is amazing. 
This photo is from my parent's wedding. Dad never liked wearing suits but he always 'scrubbed up' rather nicely...LOL
...3 leaf tapestry stamps, 2 Ranger Distress Ink pads, 2 red rose buds & 1 cream rose held together with a green crystal ribbon bow and a 6x6 white card blank.
,,,a fairly straight forward, simple card.
I placed the flowers so that only the heads were against the stamped background and the bow is towards the edge.
This trio of Elegant Ladies involved decoupage, doodling, matt & layering and...
...gold leafing. The gold leaf didn't want to behave and a couple of the ladies there ended up 'wearing' nearly as much as they applied to their cards LOL and that wasn't all - trimming the feathers to decorate the cards ended up with us covered in those too...we certainly had a giggle - a great way to start the day.
This twisted easel card was decorated with more decoupage and some Glossy accents but there was more to come...
...the panels were edged with glitter so you can imagine by this stage we were all sporting a mix of gold-leaf, feathers & glitter and sticky/gluey fingers.
Next came a 'Magic slider' card. I made one of these a while back of a Christmas tree but I think I like this one even better. Here we have the outline of a sailing ship...
...and here we have the image in full colour - I do so love the way these work.
To round off the day we made a 'Penny Rocker'. The card is a folded circle so it can rock and on the front is a flower attached to a penny-slider so it can spin and move back & forth as the card is rocked.
Hope, expectation, Bright promises.
The Star is one of the great cards of faith, dreams realised
The Star is a card that looks to the future. It does not predict any immediate or powerful change, but it does predict hope and healing. This card suggests clarity of vision, spiritual insight. And, most importantly, that unexpected help will be coming, with water to quench your thirst, with a guiding light to the future. They might say you're a dreamer, but you're not the only one.
