Barbecue Party Tilda

I promised you I would be posting more often..
LOL!

Here's my very first creation for an amazing new Magnolia challenge blog..
All About Magnolia Challenge..

It's a recipe book..

An amazing gift for somebody who loves to cook, right?

I've had this idea in my mind for sooo long..

And now it's finally here..

I couldn't resist..

I just had to use the new Maja Design papers from the Vintage Baby collection..

Can you tell it's a baby collection?

No you can't.. LOL! These are so versatile that you can practically use them for any project not just baby ones.. 

I've added my beloved lace Antoinette and some other super cute embellies..

Some made by myself, some from my stash..

As the doily for example..

The alphabet is a Sizzix Tim Holtz die..

And my favourite tag is peeking from under there..

It's the Tilda Tag Doohickey..

With some Vintage Seam Binding on..

And there's another one of my favourite Magnolia dies..

The Old Sweedish Lace.. Just fabulous!

I really wanted to use my Silverware Doohickey on this project and I cut those out from a plain white paper and embossed them.. But I didn't really like the result so I decided to try another thing..

I glued some silver foil on a thicker piece of paper and then cut them out..

Don't these look super cute?

This is Barbecue Party Tilda..

A super sweet image from the Pink Lemonade Collection 2014..

I coloured her with Distress Inks..

The dots around her are made with Chunky White Frantage..

The postmark stamp is from Kort & Godt..

Wanna see the sparkle?

She's got some Stickles on her dres..

Some more gorgeousness..

 Lots of flowers and a spoon..

So.. Did you enjoy?

Hope so.. LOL!

You can find a short list of supplies with links at the end of this post..

And the book is up for sale in my shop too..

Have a great day everyone!

Hugs, Tina

Gemini Tilda

That's right! I have another post for you today..

Since I'm a little obsessed with making gift boxes lately I couldn't resist..

I had to make another one..

And this time I'm going to show you a very special stamp..

This is Gemini Tilda from the Zodiac Collection 2014..

Cute, right?

This collection is just incredible.. I cannot wait to colour them all up..

I've made another square box..

These are perfect for small presents.. I love them..

The base is made out of kraft paper.. I've made the lid out of some textured paper.. The border was decorated using a Martha Stewart Punch..

The papers are from Maja Design..

There are two small doilies tucked under there and I've used some of my favourite flowers and sprays..

The corners are made using a home made mold and some Fimo Air..

I've used a Spellbinders Circle die to cut out the image and a matching Scalloped Circle to put under..

All the paper edges are distressed with a Tim Holtz tool and then inked..

They are also machine sewn..

I love using these butterflies on my projects..

They are made with Martha Stewart molds..

There are some pearls on the box too..

And of course some gorgeous lace..

Here's another corner full of flowers..

I've glued one of the butterflies on the big flower.. Looks like it's resting there..

All the flowers are painted with some gesso..

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

I've also used a Magnolia postmark and one from Kort & Godt..

There's some Chunky White Frantage around the image..

I've added some Vintage Seam Binding all around the lid and tied it on one side..

Take a look at this stunning pendant.. It's one of the Idea-Ology Baubles.. Just gorgeous..

Well.. This is my second and last post for today.. 

But I'll be back tomorrow with some more inspiration for you..

Hugs, Tina

Tilda With Spring Heart

It's Sunday and I'm finally here with a new card..
This one was made using Maja Design papers from the Vintage Frost Basics collection..

I guess you know already how versatile these papers are and I just wanted to prove that with another creation that has nothing to do with winter or frost..

A new Magnolia collection (Lost & Found 2014) has been released recently and I adore this cute little Tilda with Spring Heart..
The flower background is from the same Stamp Club kit but I don't know the name of the stamp yet..
I'll add that when I figure it out..
Then there's the Log from the Halloween & Autumn Collection 2008.. I use this one a lot..
And let's not forget the Especially For You sentiment from the Chasing Butterflies Collection 2009..
I keep telling myself that I should try something different.. Something clean and simple (that's scary LOL!)..
And then I grab a flower.. And then another one.. And another one..
How could I not.. These WOC flowers are all so gorgeous.. 

I add cheesecloth under and in between the flowers.. I really like the look of it..

The beaded berries are one of my fave embellies..
I've used one of my GoKreate dies for the card's shape..

There's something pretty new here..

The Crystal Pin.. Can you find it??

It's gorgeous even if it doesn't show here.. I swear..
The Swirl is a Magnolia Doohickey die and so is the Ticket..
They are both covered with some Frantage..

There's one of the doilies I love so much under there too..

I've used my Spellbinders Circles and Scalloped Circles for the image..

All the paper edges are distressed with a TH tool, then inked and machine sewn..

There's just one more thing I have to point out..

I love lace.. I've used only two types for this card but I love them all..
Another thing I couldn't live without are pearls.. 

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

I use both the ink pads and the reinkers..

Here's the list of colours used for this one:

Skin: Vintage Photo, Tattered Rose

Cheeks: Tattered Rose

Hair: Antique Linen, Walnut Stain

Log: Walnut Stain

Dress and shoes: Victorian Velvet, Pumice Stone

Socks: Pumice Stone

Background: Weathered Wood, Pumice Stone, Peeled Paint

Heart Flowers: Victorian Velvet

Big Heart: Aged Mahogany

Grass under log: Peeled Paint, Forest Moss

I've used tons of other mediums to embellish this card..

 Liquid Pearls around the image, Stickles on the little hearts, Rocky Candy Crackle Paint on the big heart, Glossy Accents, Picket Fence Crackle Paint and Gesso here and there..

Thanks for stopping by..

I really appreciate it..

Hugs, Tina

Tilda Rose Scent

Hello Magnolia lovers from all over the world!
The New Year is here and I'm here to share with you my first creation for 2014..
The first of many.. I hope.. LOL!

I'made this one for a challenge and I have to admit that I was pretty concerned about this one but Magnolia gave me a hand..

They released a new collection recently (Lost & Found Collection 2014) and there she was..

Tilda Rose Scent ..

The perfect image for this challenge..
I got her in my Winter Stamp Club Kit..

There are many many new products I haven't had the chance to use and I thought it was time to play with some..

First of all I have used these gorgeous pion Design Flower Frames papers.. I love them!!

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

Then there's the heart doily I adore..

All the paper edges are distressed with a TH tool and then inked with Walnut Stain..

They are sewn too..

I use self-adhesive half pearls on almost every project..

Here you can see this gorgeous new lace I got as a gift from Sandy..

And it's not the only one.. ;)

The swirl is a Magnolia Doohickey and it's covered with some Shabby White Frantage..

And let's not forget the pin.. Stunning, isn't it?

Of course there's some cheesecloth under there too..

And all kinds of flowers.. 

But there's also this Maya Road Pearl Star Flower I can't take my eyes off..

There's another doily under all those layers to give even more texture..

I've used gesso and Crackle Paint on the papers and flowers..

Here are some more flowers and you can see that I've used Chunky White Frantage all over the place..

The dots around the image are made with Liquid Pearls..

Not sure you can see the Stickles on her slippers and the bottle but there's another pic where you should get a better idea..

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

List of colours:

Weathered Wood

Vintage Photo

Tattered Rose

Pumice Stone

Victorian Velvet

Antique Linen

Walnut Stain

The sentiment is from Kort & Godt..

The image was cut out with a Spellbinders die..

That's all from me for today..

Be sure to come back shortly cos' my Birthday is approaching and I'm preparing a little something for you..

Hugs, Tina

Prima Ballerina Tilda

Hi guys!
I thought I would show you a non-Christmas project today..

I just had to use a new stamp I got..

Yes.. That's Prima Ballerina Tilda from the Little Circus Moscow Collection 2013..

There's a new Magnolia Doohickey too..

The new swirl is just stunning and I covered it with a little bit of Frantage!!

Here are some gorgeous Wild Orchid Flowers..

I've added some cheese cloth under them to add some texture..

I can't imagine my life without the Vintage Seam Binding anymore.. LOL!

I've used the Spellbinders Decorative Labels Eight to cut out the image..

I've also added a small Bark Heart on the right with a small rose on..

The tags are made with the Tilda Tag Doohickey..

I've used some papers from the Maja Design Vintage Summer Basics 6x6 Paper Pad..

I've used once again my GoKreate dies for the card's shape..

The paper edges are distressed using a Tim Holtz tool and then inked with some Walnut Stain..

They are machine sewn too..

The Prima Wooden Lock is fabulous, isn't it?

It's covered with gesso..

 The right side with some more gorgeous flowers and that pin that I love so much..

Lots of pearls..

My favourite lace..

There's a doily too..
I've added some Crackle Paint and some gesso here and there..

Here's a close up..

Of course I had to add a key that opens the lock..

I really love charms and I just can't stop adding them to my projects.. 

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

I've added some Shabby White Frantage around the image too..

I use an Inkssentials White Opaque Pen for the highlights..

Sooooooo...

I think that's it..

I hope I didn't forget anything..

Be sure to come back in a few hours cos' I have an amazing surprise for you..

Big hugs,

Tina
