Tilda Spreads Love

Hi everyone!

Ready for some love?
I'm all about hearts these days and here's another Valentine themed creation..

For this card I've used Tilda Spreads Love from the Magnolia You Are So Special Collection 2011..

One thing I've noticed is how grown up she looks.. Doesn't she?

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

The papers are from the Maja Design Vintage Autumn Basics Collection..

I love layers and I've added a doily on the upper half of the card..

There are pearls all over the place and some Shaby White Frantage around the image..

The Bloomy Tags are a Magnolia Doohickey..

I've added some Gesso and Shabby Seam Binding on them..

The gorgeous clay heart is one of my fave embellishments..

These gorgeous flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts, I Am Roses and some were a part of a prize I won some time ago..

Here you can also see the Bark Heart with some cheesecloth on..

A small part of a Marianne Design die can be spotted here also..

And finally a better pic of the gorgeous laces I've used for this one..

The frame was made using a mold bought on Etsy and some Fimo Air..

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..

HERE's a video if you wanna see how I do that..

I use both the ink pads and the reinkers..

The list of colours for this one:

Skin: Vintage Photo, Tattered Rose

Cheeks: Tattered Rose

Hair: Antique Linen, Walnut Stain

Pants: Faded Jeans, Black Soot

Shirt: Victorian Velvet, Pumice Stone, Black Soot

Little Cute Tilda

Hi everyone!

My niece is soon turning 3 and I've decided to make her a gift bag..

I won't give her this one cos' I've realized it's too small but I'm gonna make something pretty similar..

I chose to use the Sofiero papers from Maja Design..

The whole collection is gorgeous but the ones with flower patterns are my favourites..

I've also used one of the strips cos' those crowns were a perfect match for my image..

Here's a Prima Shabby Chic Corner piece.. Painted with white acrylic paint and then completely covered with gesso to match the other embellies..

The border die is a Magnolia Doohickey called Scalloped Dotted Lace..

The tags are a Doohickey too..

There's another crown here.. This amazing charm..
I've also used my beloved Vintage Seam Binding and there's a piece of Cheesecloth under the flowers too..
I just had to apply some Chunky White Frantage around the image..
I've used one of my Spellbinders Opulent Ovals to cut out the image and then there's the Classic Oval under that and the  Floral Oval under both...

Some more WOC flowers and the gorgeous Kort & Godt lace..

And there's my brand new Shabby Pearl Rose Organza Trim.. Fantastic, isn't it?

I've applied some gesso over the image and I really like the effect it gives.. A nice detail..

I've added some pearls and Crackle paint here and there to finish the look.. 

The Fimo butterflies are gorgeous, right?

The molds are from Martha Stewart..

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

They are machine sewn too..

This is Little Cute Tilda from the Once Upon A Time Collection 2013..

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

I use both the ink pads and reinkers..

List of colours:

Skin: Vintage Photo, Tattered Rose

Cheeks: Tattered Rose

Hair: Antique Linen, Walnut Stain, Black Soot

Dress: Victorian Velvet, Pumice Stone, Black Soot

Crown: Scattered Straw, Wild Honey, Pumice Stone, Black Soot

Background: Weathered Wood, Pumice Stone

Here's another pic of the whole mini bag..

I really hope you like it..

And if there's still something you wanna know feel free to ask..

You can find this and many other items in my ETSY store HERE..

Thanks for stopping by!

North Pole Tilda

Hello folks..

Here's another winter creation..

I've used North Pole Tilda from the Winter Wonderland Collection 2013..

She's one of my favourites from this collection but they are all adorable..

The papers are once again from Maja Design.. 

This time from the Vintage Frost Basics Collection..

The Tilda Tag of course is from Magnolia..

I've added two mini bells on it with a bit of twine..

The small snowflake is one of the latest Doohickey's.. It's just a part of the set called So Wrapped Snowflake..

And take a look at those gorgeous headpins..

Take a look at this gorgeous White Silk Ribbon.. Amazing to the touch..

I use the Bow Easy tool to make perfect bows..

I also love this cute little snowflake charm..

The circle used to cut out the image is a Marianne Design die..

I've added a doily and lots of pearls as usual..

The Poinsettia is one of my favourite Magnolia dies..

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

They are machine sewn too..

The Slender Fir.. Another Magnolia die..

I've added some Frantage on it..

The Chrysantemum is from Kort & Godt.. All the other flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts..

The lace is just stunning, isn't it?

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

I use both ink pads and reinkers..

List of colours:

Skin: Vintage Photo, Tattered Rose

Cheeks: Tattered Rose

Hair: Antique Linen, Walnut Stain

Background: Weathered Wood, Pumice Stone

Jacket, hat and boots: Weathered Wood, Pumice Stone, Black Soot

Gloves and tights: Pumice Stone, Black Soot

Something I really like to use on my Winter cards is the Liquid Applique..

I've added some under her feet and on the hat..

Can you see the fantastic effect it gives?

There's some Frantage around the image too.. I wanted it to look like snow..

Soooo.. Do you like it?

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 With Large Balloon

Hi everyone!

I'm here with a new creation for you..

It's been a while since I used one of my favourite papers from the Maja Design Vintage Summer Basics Collection.. This was just the perfect occasion..

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

I tried to colour the image so it would match the papers perfectly..

Did I succeed? I'm pretty satisfied..

You can see that I've used once again a Bark Heart, some cheesecloth, some gorgeous WOC and Kort & Godt flowers, some Frosted Berries..
The View master is a Magnolia die..
I've added some Frantage on top of it..
There's more..

.. a charm, lots of pearls, some Shabby Seam Binding..

There's the So Wrapped Lovely Magnolia Doohickey die..

And have you seen the most amazing pin ever?? Love it to bits!!

Here's another shot of the flowers..

I've used a doily to add some more texture..

All the paper edges are distressed and then machine sewn..

I've added some Gesso and Crackle Paint on all the flowers and on some other parts of the card..

Here you can see the absolutely amazing Love Heart Clip , some mini wooden hearts covered with Crackle Paint, some brand new lace, the Magnolia Vintage Berries and some Chunky white Frantage on the pink papers..

This is Tilda With Large Balloon from the Lost & Found Collection 2014..

She's sooooo cute..

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

I've added some Shabby White Frantage around her..

And some Stickles on parts of the image..

The image's cut out with a Spellbinders Opulent Ovals die..

I really hope you enjoyed..
Please let me know what you think..

And be sure to come back tomorrow for some more inspiration..

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

Tilda With Winter Flowers

Missed me??

Don't worry.. I'm still here..

It's just that things are not as they are supposed to be lately..

I hope I will have a much better year in 2014.. Seriously.. 

Fortunately I got some time to play with my beloved Maggies today..

I grabbed one of my old Tilda's but I didn't feel this was enough so I thought I could do something different..

Here is my first ever CD card..

Yes.. You're right..

I thought it would be nice to do some recycling.. LOL!

I got the idea from my Magnolia DT teammate Camilla H. One of the most talented ladies in blogland..

This is my Tilda With Winter Flowers from the Sweet Christmas Dreams Collection 2011..

All the DP's on this card are from Maja Design..

The Photo Corners are made with a Quickutz die..

The doily is from my stash..

There are lots of flowers here.. Some from Wild Orchid Crafts, some from I Am Roses, some from a candy I won a while ago..

The Swirl is a Magnolia Doohickey die and it's covered with Shabby White Frantage..

There's some cheesecloth under the flowers and the gorgeous pink lace with rhinestones on the left..

The pearls are from WOC and Rayher.. 

Here's the inside..

A sentiment on the left and some blank space on the right to write your greeting..

All the papers are distressed and machine sewn..

This doily was made with a Cheery Lynn die..

The sentiment is from Stempelglede..

The postmarks are from Kort & Godt..

I've used my Spellbinders Ovals and Scalloped Ovals twice..

Don't you love this heart doily??

And the La-La Land Filigree Corners are spectacular..

The little flowers are made with a Doohickey die too..

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

It's nice to make something different, isn't it?
