Amazing Paper Grace

The ordinary and unexpected gift of stamping

Magnolia Merry Christmas Tilda

Posted by Becca Feeken on Friday, November 20th, 2009


This month the Magnolia-licious Design Team was offered a sketch challenge.  Well, knowing how I love sketch challenges, I pulled out the papers and got to work.  Incidentally you can see what everyone came up with HERE.  For my card I chose the sweetest little Magnolia – #306 Tilda with Garland.  Since she’s already holdng up the words Merry Christmas, I decided to let that go for the sentiment.  Be sure to check out the huge stock of Magnolias at the new Magnolia-licious Store!

I flipped the design and took a smidgen of creative license by using ribbon instead of another panel.  It’s all good, right!?!  Tilda is colored with Copics Markers and for a little bit of embellishment I took a Martha Stewart Corner punch and used it for a corner piece topped with a button. 

Lol, I don’t know what I’ll do next Christmas season when my favorite Making Memories paper is truly old and perhaps discontinued.  Oh well, perhaps using it another couple of times this season I’ll use it all up!!

Card Recipe:
Stamps:  Magnolia – #306 – Tilda holding Garland
Paper:  Making Memories, Bazzill
Ink:  Memento Black Tuxedo
Accessories:  Copic Markers, Ribbon, Martha Stewart Corner Punch, Button

Thanks for stopping by today!!  Have a blessed weekend!

    Oh my gosh, Becca! This is SOOOOOO sweet. Love this Tilda, how you colored her, and the double bows. Too cute!

    I ordered Kitchen Tilda and I’ve been stalking my mailbox waiting for her to get here. I can’t wait! Between you and Suzanne, I like the Tildas more and more. :)

    Hi Becca. I hope you have someone special in mind to give this card to! You’ve brought a number of elements in and they all work together so well. The bows are so perfectly tied and the button and MS corner complement the figure perfectly.

    Very beautiful card. The background layer frames everything so nicely.
    Adding the bows accents the colours and your colouring is great.
