Today is my husband's birthday! This is the card I've made for him. As soon as I saw this gorgeous Tilda in my winter kit I wanted to colour her like one of those black and white photos where they choose part of the photo to add colour to. I'm really pleased how she turned out! I have used papers by Magnolia and sewn and distressed the edges.
This chipboard heart was first painted with pickett fence crackle paint and then I placed it face down onto some gold leaf before the crackle paint was dry to get a patchy covering of gold leaf. I then coated over the top with rock candy crackle paint and then finally painted over some of the gold with white acrylic paint - love how it turned out!
I decorated the inside of the card with the leftover strip of Magnolia paper, another heart and a flower punched with a Martha Stewart hydrangea punch.
I hope you like it and thanks for looking! x
I coloured Tilda Sending Love Letters , #282 with copics and I've inked around the image mat with black soot distress ink. She is available for preorder from Magnolia-Licious with 17% off!!
The sentiment is from Magnolia too and was embossed with sea foam embossing powder. I wrapped some chipboard hearts with Tim Holtz tissue tape. The button is from my stash and the gorgeous button twine is from the Pretty Little Ribbon Shop.
