Tailor Tilda


Its time for another challenge over at Stamp & Create with Magnolia & this one is Spring with Buttons.
I chose to use Tailor Tilda & she is coloured with Prisma pencils. She is mounted onto a Nestie & as I did not have any Frantage when I made this card, I used ultra thick embossing powder around the edges. The papers are Papermania Happy Days, which go together with this image perfectly, as they have a sewing theme.
The corner had the same treatment too.
As did the ribbon lol. The tape measure is an old stamp & stamped in TH DI Dried Marigold. Added a few buttons tied with Bakers Twine, some orange organza ribbon & a little Sewing machine charm.
Entering into the following challenges
Crafty Ribbons Anything Goes with Ribbon
Dutch Dare Card Challenge Buttons & Bows
Midweek Magnolias Tic Tac Toe (I used Die Cuts/Punches, Lace & Stitching (Stitching on material in image, hope that counts)
Marvelous Magnolia For a Special lady
Totally Tilda Heat Embossing
Sketch Saturday
