Aries Tilda

Hello there!

I wish I had the time and energy to colour all the new cuties from the Zodiac Collection 2014 but unfortunately I haven't been feeling very well lately..

But I have a little something for you today..

If you haven't seen my craft room you can take a look here but those of you who already know what it's like will see immediately where I got the colour inspiration for this card..
I have to admit that I also love the card my teammate Yulis made not so long ago..

I've had all of these wonderful Magnolia papers for so long and just never thought of using them..

I tend to collect them instead.. LOL!

I think this colour combo is just gorgeous and not so common..

Especially not on my creations.. My craft room is another story..

The tags were made out of kraft paper.. This is the Tilda Tag Doohickey..

They are tucked into a small white paper bag..

I've made the Shabby Seam Binding myself..

The card's shape was made using a GoKreate die..

The butterfly is made out of FIMO.. I just love playing with my Martha Stewart molds..

The feathers are from one of my pillows in the living room.. Don't tell anyone.. LOL!

There's some cheesecloth under the image and flower arrangements..

All the paper edges are distressed and machine sewn..

Here's another Magnolia die.. The Lovely Fence..

The butterfly charm is from my stash and so is the doily..

There are lots of pearls all over the card and I've used lots of Gesso on all the flowers and other embellies and even on the papers..

There are many many flowers on this card too..

Some from Wild Orchid Crafts, some from I Am Roses and even some from Prima..

The lace is from Suhafuha (you just have to check it out) and the wonderful gingham ribbon from a local store..

There's also a wonderful pin that I got from WOC..

This is Aries Tilda from the Zodiac Collection 2014..

She is stamped with Archival Ink on 300g Langton aquarel paper and coloured with Distress Inks..

I use both the ink pads and reinkers..

Colours:

Skin: Vintage Photo, Tattered Rose

Cheeks: Tattered Rose

Hair: Antique Linen, Walnut Stain

Dress: Tattered Rose, Victorian Velvet, Pumice Stone

Horns: Pumice Stone, Black Soot

The postmarks are from Magnolia (New York) and Kort & Godt..

The dots around the image are made with Chunky White Frantage..

You can find this and many other cards for sale in my Etsy shop HERE..

I'll be back tomorrow with another post..

I really hope you'll be back..

Hugs, Tina
