Good morning my lovelies how are you all? I'm sorry I wasnt along with a card yesterday I had my grand-daughter at the weekend so there was housework etc to catch up with :0(
Anyway I do have a card to share with you today using one of the new stamps just released from Magnolia. Now I told myself I wasnt buying any of these as I have so many uninked christams stamps...............yea I know I'm weak!!!!!!!!!
This is 'Snowy Tilda' from the Magnolia Christmas Story collection, she does have a snowflake in her hand but I replaced it with a metal snowflake charm but cut off the loop. I paper pieced her dress with scrap paper & added prisma pencil for a bit of shading.
I've used Magnolia 'Christmas Toys' paper & inked the edges with Walnut DI.
I cut out 2 trees using a Marianne die. The ribbon is from my stash as is the tag punch I used for the sentiments. Added 'Icicles' from a Marianne die. Added Stardust Stickles & a pearl using my Pearl pen in the centre.
The pom-pom trimming I got from here.
I havnt decorated inside because TBH I'm not very happy with the colouring on her gloves & boots so I wouldn't be able to send it to anyone. Instead I will just turn her into a Christmas picture or she will stay in my hobbit on my card shelf lol.
