Here’s the latest Tilda image I’ve coloured, it is Tilda with Hood, and I bought it from the Little Stamp Shoppe. It’s so great to have a dedicated supplier of Magnolia stamps for Canada.
I used a few fun new toys on her – Liquid Applique on the ‘fur’ trim of her hood, Glossy Accents on her boots to give some gloss and dimension, and a clear Spica pen on the flowers in the basket.
This is the full card. I absolutely love this fleur-de-lis paper, so I didn’t want to cover it up too much with embellishments and thingys. The scrap paper behind Tilda was indeed just that, scrap. I bought some a lot of new stamps at the big craft fair last weekend, and I was testing out my handwriting background stamp on kraft paper with Tea Dye Distress ink. I loved the way it looked, so I aged it a bit more, and used it on the card!
The ribbon was white and black, I coloured it with the two Copics I used to colour Tilda’s coat and hood. I bought a few rolls of white ribbon with black accents at Michaels, so I will never have to worry about finding the perfect matching ribbon – I can make it!
Almost done the baby sweater, after a few setbacks. I’m hoping to remember to bring it home from work tonight, so I can take photos! I realised there’s a sweater I knit that has no FO photos, so I’m hoping P can take some photos of me in it.
Also, had been hankering after a digital organization system for my stamps, easily searchable with keywords and things like that. I think I’ve figured it out, and I’m going to either do a picture tutorial, or maybe even attempt a video sometime within the next week…. After the 4th my job goes back in to overdrive until about late February, so I need to do it before then.
