Tilda Gathers Straws...
Another cute Tilda... this time using a sketch from Friday Sketchers... a new blog with weekly challenges... Again, because of the size of the image, I had to go 51/2" x 51/2"... as much as I love square cards, that is big and hard to find the perfect envelope for...
Stamps: Tilda Gathers Straws (Magnolia), Happy Harmony and Fresh Fillers (retired SU!), and French Flair BG (SU!)...
Paper: green textured (DCWV), Pink Passion (SU!), blue & Brown (The Paper Company)...
Ink: Pitch Black Adirondack (Ranger Ink), Old Olive, and Tempting Turquoise (SU!)... Prismacolor Pencils and OMS... White Signo Pen...
Access: pink brads (EK Success), blue rhinestones (misc), blue ribbon (misc), Prima flower, Diamond Stickles (Ranger Ink)...
Tools: sewing machine (Janome), distressing tool, Key Tag punch (SU!), Simple Scallop punch-Martha Stewart, trimming scissors...
Helpful hints: Tilda's shirt is on dimensionals... stamped the flowers on the shirt after coloring and cutting it out... flowers have Diamond Stickles on... used white pen to add a tiny bit of accent to her face and shoes (doesn't really show up so I will have to use white paint next time)... used UHU glue to attach rhinestones...
Thanks for looking!
