Shabby Tilda

Hello friends,

It is time for the MAGNOLIA-LICIOUS

CHALLENGE BLOG.

NORMA

has chosen our INSPIRATION

this time.

Here is her picture:

THINK SPRING

 The buds on 'my' Magnolia Tree

have been formed for some time now.

The weather is so mild.

My entry for the CHALLENGE

is "Tilda Loves Flowers" #280

from the 

"Sweet Crazy Love Collection".

Not only is she in stock; she is

ON SALE for 10% off right now!

Here she is in all her glory:

I have used SU Very Vanilla card stock,

for the card, one of the layers, wreath

and butterflies.

The two Design Papers are also

from SU if I remember correctly.

My new die :o) is from

DIANA'S STORE

and is called CATALINA WREATH

and is made by Memory Box.

The butterfly punch is from MS.

I used SU Dazzling Diamonds

around the edge of all butterflies 

and also all the little dots

from the flower bouquet.

I wasn't sure if they were supposed to

be Babys Breath or not? Thinking they were,

I used my white Sharpie pen and put dots

in them all and added the 'bling'

For the first time I used the Pearl Pen.

I didn't have anything to put on the butterflies.

I DID practice making large pearls 

and the pen was awesome.

However when putting tiny ones on

my card - of course they didn't turn

out as well as I wanted LOL

I used my Zutter tool and REALLY

sliced up all my paper.

Then used Tim Holtz 

Vintage Photo Distress Ink on all the

coloured card stock.

I used his Tattered Rose ink on

all the vanilla pieces.

After cutting out my die cut I cut it

in half and used the two pieces

behind Tilda.

Here is the inside:

Sure looks like I put that Spellbinder

Die on an angle doesn't it!!

I didn't

 notice it till I saw the picture!

The new MB die is whole this time

and there is one teeny butterfly.

The writing space is very simple. 

Hope you like my try at the

INSPIRATION this time.

Many thanks for taking a peek

at my work. I love to read your

comments. They make my day.

Hugs,

Candy
