Tilda In Cozy Coat

Hi everyone!

I'm back.. With a new card..

My father needed a Christmas card and I had NONE.. 

Seriously..

I was in such a hurry that I forgot a thousand things..

I forgot to finish everything with Gesso.. I can't believe it.. I only realized it while editing the pics..

And a pearl fell off..

Wanna talk about the colouring?

I forgot to finish the shading around her..

Shame on me.. LOL!

Well.. There's nothing I can do now.. He mailed it out earlier today.. 

Enough with the babbling..

Here are all the details..

This gorgeous papers are from Magnolia.. I've been neglecting them lately but I'm starting tu pull them out of the drawers..

And I've decided to use some dies from the Doohickey Kit vol.2 too..

Can you spot them?

One of the Slender Firs is there too..

And I've used my GoKreate dies for the card's shape and my Spellbinders dies for the image..

At least I did not forget to distress and sew the edges..

There's a doily under there and a square piece of corrugated cardboard that I painted with some Picket Fence Crackle Paint..

Some pearls here and there..

A snowflake charm..

And some beautiful lace..

Tons of flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts, Kort & Godt and Magnolia.. Of course.. 

And some berries, leaves and a bit of cheesecloth..

The snowflake die from the kit is pretty much all hidden under all that stuff..

This cutie from the Waiting For Christmas Collection 2014 is called Tilda In Cozy Coat..

The dots around her are made with Chunky White Frantage and the snowflakes are covered with Stardust Stickles..

I added a touch of Glossy Accents to the buttons on her coat..

She's coloured with Distress Inks..

Just a few colours really..

But I've added a bit of Aged Mahogany to the cheeks this time, and you know what?

I really like it!!

I would love to hear what you guys think..

Leave me a comment if you can..

And there's one more thing I have to say:

Merry Christmas to you all!!!

Hugs, Tina

Tilda's Town Challenge #131 - Joys Of The Season

Oh my.. Where has the time gone..
I even managed to forget to post this card I made for both the Magnolia DT Blog Hop and Tilda's Town..

A new challenge has already started and you can find it HERE.. 

And here's the card I'm talking about..

I've used Twinkle Star Tilda from the Waiting For Christmas Collection 2014..

It was love at first sight..

But what can I say.. That's what happens to me every time a new collection comes out..

They are all soooo incredibly gorgeous!!!

These amazing papers are from Magnolia too..

My favourites when it comes to Christmas projects..

The ever present doily is there and so are all those gorgeous WOC and Kort & Godt flowers..

I made the corners with a mold I got on Ebay and some Fimo..

 There's some cheesecloth under those flowers and I've added a snowflake charm too..

I really like adding some brown corrugated cardboard when I'm working with reds..

And a tag is almost a must..

Here are some more flowers, a pine cone, some decorative berries and a gorgeous pin..

I've added some Twinklets Diamond Dust here and there.. Love the effect..

Yes.. This is still my favourite lace..

And another thing I love is this sweet little angel.. Made out of Fimo like the corners above..

There are lots and lots of pearls all over this card and some Gesso here and there too..

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 postmarks are from Kort & Godt..

The tiny dots around the image are made with Liquid Pearls and I've added some Stickles on all the stars..

Thanks for stopping by!

Hugs, Tina
