TOMIC Challenge #1..

Hello everyone!

The day has come..

After a whole lot of preparations and introductions the Magnolia Design Team is finally ready to launch the very first TOMIC Challenge of this year..

If you need some explanations on how our challenge works just click on the link at the end of this post..

Great themes and fabulous prizes..

We are gonna have lots of fun people! Believe me..

The theme for our first challenge is SPRING + at least one Magnolia die..

Easy-peasy, right?

Here's what I made for you..

Here is my Spring card with more than one Magnolia cutting die..
They are all so pretty so I couldn't just stick with one..
I picked three of my all time faves..
The Tilda Tag, the Mini Doily (you will find it on the back of the card) and the Chicken Wire..

I used a gorgeous CreaLies die for the card's base..

The papers are all Maja Design..
From the Celebration Collection to be exact..

This sweetie pie is called Tilda with Little Chickens and she's a part of the SunBeam Collection 2018..

I coloured her with Distress Inks..

Here's a list of all the colours I used:

Skin

Vintage Photo, Tattered Rose

Cheeks

Tattered Rose, Aged Mahogany

Hair

Antique Linen, Walnut Stain

Pants

Weathered Wood, Pumice Stone, Black Soot

Shirt

Tumbled Glass, Iced Spruce, Pumice Stone, Black Soot

Shoes

Walnut Stain, Pumice Stone, Black Soot

Grass

Old Paper, Peeled Paint, Forest Moss

Chickens

Scattered Straw, Dried Marigold, Hickory Smoke

After I was done with the colouring, I used a Wink of Stella glitter brush to add sparkle to the chickens, bows, shirt and pants..

It doesn't show in the picture but it's all sparkly, I promise..

I made the white dots around her with the Frantage embossing powder and sealed everything with a tiny bit of Distress Micro Glaze..

The image was cut out with one of the Spellbinders Opulent Ovals..

I've used a whole lot of doiles everywhere..
One on the front, one on the inside and even a smaller one on the back..
The ovals inside are made with the Spellbinders Petite Ovals Large and Petite Scalloped Ovals Large..

The postmarks are the same ones I used around Tilda..
These two stamp sets are called New York and Postcard..

There's a bit of white Vintage Seam Binding tied on the tag and the super gorgeous lace you see peeking on the sides is the Lace Elisabeth..

My kraft paper of choice is the Bazzil Classic Kraft in 12x12''..
And what do you think about that super cute house charm? I love it!

The paper flowers are from WOC and Magnolia..
They are covered in Gesso..
And I'm sure you noticed there are lots and lots of half-pearls scattered around..

Now here's the link I promised you..
