I have used the Magnolia lace paper, love their papers they are so thick, great for distressing! I have torn them all and distressed with walnut stain distress ink. I have stitched the edges too.
Isn't this Tilda from the Winter/Christmas kit adorable???? Oh I love her, I think she is my favourite, mostly because my little girl squats down like that to do things hehe!! Obviously she is dripping sealing wax so I decided to make a little brown envelope for her to be standing on and sealing. It is made from parcel paper and I have inked the edges with walnut stain distress ink before glueing it together. Tilda is coloured with distress inks and I have added red luster rub on to the sealing wax so that it looks more realistic - it is nice and shimmery in real life but doesn't look so with the winter light we have to photograph with! The circle behind Tilda is some gold cardstock which I have punched with a small hole punch and flower punch to create a punched edge and distressed with walnut stain.
The flowers are all from Wild Orchid Crafts, sprayed with glimmer mist and the leaves have been punched with a Woodware punch and sponged with walnut stain distress ink.
The lace bow is from my stash and dotted around the card I have used the punched out flowers from the circle (waste not want not LOL) with tiny pearl middles from the Hobby House.
The tiny brads are Tim Holtz and I have hand written the sentiment with my calligraphy pen.
Hope you can join us this week, I look forward to seeing you cards, wait until you see the rest of the DT's work it is stunning! thanks for looking x
