Magnolias in the Springtime!

Hi everyone!

I'm here today to share a new found love ... Magnolia stamps!  I just adore these little girls - they are so much fun to colour and add to projects.

It's Spring and this little mini Tilda holding her goose, seemed to want to jump into my box of tulips... so I let her!



The Tulip Box Card is an SVG file I purchased from SVG Cuts.  I love their files, they are well done, with fabulous instructions and a video on how to put everything together as well.

I inked and added Diamond Stickles to all the petal edges and molded the flowers for some dimension.  I also added some glass bead gel to the leaves for texture.


I have a lot to learn about colouring the Magnolia's but I find it very relaxing and enjoyable!


I'm going to enter this card in a couple of challenges.  The first is one at Creative Carte Blanche.... the rules there were to add corrugated paper, lace and metal to a piece of art.  I decided to score my fence, as you can see below, to add texture to it and cover the "corrugated" requirement.... added some metal bling to my flower cluster and lace "grass" at the bottom of my fence.


The other challenge I'm entering is over at the Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog where the theme is "Anything Goes With Pearls."


This photo shows the card laying flat and ready to be boxed up for a pretty Easter gift!

Paper used for this project was a mixture of CTMH Penelope and Kaleidoscope, with a tiny bit of Doodlebug Springtime.
The bow die is from Spellbinders "Tiered Multiloop Bows"
And the star of the show is "Goosebump Tilda"!

Thanks for stopping by!

Wishing you all a Joyous Spring!
Linda
