Tilda With Rose Basket

Hello my dear followers!

I promised that I will be posting more often and here I am with a new creation..

I think that at some point we all had a diary where we used to write all our thoughts, problems, love matters etc.

I know I was the most 'productive' when I was in loooovee.. LOL!

With that in mind I made a notebook/diary where you can put all your love thoughts.. Or not..

All these gorgeous papers are from Maja Design..

I don't know which collections they are from cos' I've used all the bottom stripes and have no clue what their names are..

There's a beautiful Heart Doily up there and I've tucked those birdies under the image..

These are from the Doohickey Club Magazine Vol.3..

I didn't glue them down because they are meant to be used as a bookmark..

You can simply pull them out and put them back there when you don't need them..

I made all the corners with my molds and some Fimo..

There's another doily down here..

And some Frantage, pearls, Gesso, lace..

I've used some Vintage Seam Binding for the closing..

The border was made with a Magnolia Doohickey die called Sweet Lovely Lace..

Here are some gorgeous pins, sprays and flowers from my stash..

With a bit of cheesecloth under them and a touch of Gesso on them..

Some more flowers and a tiny butterfly sitting on them..

The postmarks are from Kort & Godt..

And as you can see all the paper edges are distressed and machine sewn..

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

The white dots around her are made with Frantage..

I've added two rhinestones in the corners..

Hope you can see all the sparkle on the flowers and on her bandana..

A look from the side..

And here you can see the birdies in all their beauty..

Cute, right?

I know this post is picture heavy but I really hope you enjoyed it..

Thanks for visiting!!

Hugs, Tina

Happy New Year folks!!!!

This was supposed to be my last post for 2014 but since I had no time to finish it I've decided to use  it as my very first post in 2015..

This year is going to be fantastic.. I can feel it..

I made a mini gift bag with Devine Tilda..

My absolute favourite from the Waiting For Christmas Collection 2014..

It's been quite some time now since I made a gift bag..

I think these are awesome for little presents..

Onto the details..

These beautiful papers are from Maja Design's Vintage Summer Basics Collection..

The magnificent lace is from Kort & Godt..

I've used one of my Spellbinders dies to cut this cutie out..

Such a gorgeous frame, right?

The flowers are from WOC and Kort& Godt..

There's a super cute mini key charm on the left and some Flowers Sprays and Chesecloth too..

The Vintage Seam Binding is from my stash..

The View Master is a Magnolia die..

Some more flowers down here..

A gorgeous garland with pearls and the butterfly that I made out of Fimo..

The postmarks are from Kort& Godt too..

All the paper edges are distressed and machine sewn..

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

I use both, the ink pads and reinkers..

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

I've added some Stickles on her dress too..

I loooooove it!

You??

Can't wait to get my hands on the new Stamp Club Kit..

Have you seen all those pretty stamps??

I've been stalking our postman for over a week now and nothing..

But today's my lucky day..

I just need to be patient for another few hours until he gets here.. LOL!

Stay tuned folks cos' I'm gonna be a good girl this year and I'll be posting something new very very soon..

Hugs, Tina

Little Prince

Hi everyone!

Today I'm here to show you a gift bag for a pretty little boy..

I've used once again Sleeping Baby Tilda from the Cozy Family Autumn Collection 2010..

I never get tired of using this one on my creations.. LOL!

I've used some blue organza ribbon for the handles..

The image was cut out using a Spellbinders Oval and I placed a matching Scalloped Oval under it..

The next layer is the cheesecloth..

And then a doily..

Some gorgeous patterned paper cut with a GoKreate die..

And again some cheesecloth and two more layers of paper..

I've used a lot of homemade embellies on this one..

The corners are made with a mold I bought on Ebay..

Then there's the frame..

And I've also made a cute little sitting angel and placed it on one of the corners of the frame..

Cute, right?

There are tons of flowers and berries all over the place.. All covered with some gesso..

And there's (of course) some beautiful cotton lace too..

I love, love, love the shabby organza trim with pearls too..

All the papers are from Maja Design..

The sentiment is from Stempelglede..

There's even a cute little pacifier laying there..

There are also some paper flowers with pearls here and there..

I made those with a Martha Stewart punch..

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

The flourishes around the image are made with a Stempelglede stamp..

All the paper edges are distressed with some Walnut Stain and machine sewn..

I've used some Chunky White Frantage around the image and some Stickles on the wings..

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

Well.. I really hope you like it..

Thanks for stopping by!

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

Doohickey's Only

Yep! That's right..

No Tilda or Edwin today..

Just dies.. And they are ALL Magnolia Doohickey dies..

I had a wooden birdhouse waiting for me in one of the drawers and today I just felt the need to alter it.. LOL!

Here it is..

Huh.. Where do I start..

First I painted the birdhouse in white..

Then I covered it with some printed 'old book' paper and added a little bit of gesso around..

I've used Papermania textured paper and some kraft paper for all the die cuts..

Then it was time to decorate the roof..

It's completely covered with the Tilda Lace die..

When everything was on it's place I added the ice.. With a glue gun..

There's the Peacock resting on the roof and the Cat (Paris Night dies) on the other side watching it..

Lots of dies on the back too..

The Swirl and the Mistletoe..

And the small Dragonfly.. There's one on the front too..

There are also two small butterflies on this project (one on the front and one on the left side) and those are a part of the Magnolia Tree set..

It's the first time I use those but now that I have I'm gonna use them a lot.. They are just sooooo cute..

Ooohh.. Let's not forget the beautiful Angel Wing die.. 

The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and I Am Roses..

The gorgeous lace I've put around is from Suhafuha.. Check it out! Just gorgeous..

Here' are some more details..

The doilies are from my stash and the ornate leaves and frame are made out of FIMO Air..

I've used Martha Stewart molds for those..

The pearls on the butterflies and dragonflies are also from my stash..

Well..

Not bad for the first time, right?

I'd love to hear what you think..

I'll be back soon with a new Magnolia creation..

Hugs, Tina

Tilda With Many Hearts

Love is in the Air..
And I have another creation full of hearts to show you..

The image I used is called Tilda With Many Hearts from the You Are So Special Collection 2011..

It's one of the first Magnolia stamps I bought and it was the very first Tilda I ever coloured..

Wanna see my first Magnolia card?? Click HERE..

It's been almost three years since then and I've gone a long way, don't you think? ;)

I've used one of my GoKreate dies for this card's shape..

The papers are from Maja Design - Vintage Summer and Vintage Spring Basics..

There's the Angel Wing Doohickey under all those flowers covered with Frantage..

The heart pin is so cute, right?

That small corner is made with some Fimo Air and a homemade mold..

Here's another Magnolia die.. The Tilda Tag.. One of my favourites..

Another thing I can't stop adding to my projects is the doily..

I love my Vintage Seam Binding too..

I've used one of the Marianne Design dies under the image but there are only a few loops peeking out.. All the rest is covered.. 

I've used all kinds of flowers and flower sprays for this card.. They are from Wild Orchid Crafts, I Am Roses and some from a candy I won some time ago..

I've applied some gesso all over them and on other parts of the card..

There are also lots of pearls..

I've used Frantage all around the image too..

All the paper edges are distressed and machine sewn..

The sentiment is also from Magnolia.. From the Raising The Ceiling And Right Through My Heart Collection 2010.. It's glued on a small wooden spool.. So cute..

The Love You vintage trinket from Prima is one of the most wonderful details if you ask me..

And there's something else I wanna talk you about..

You all know how much I love lace, right?
