A Merry Christmas Tilda....


Hi Susan here....

I have had some fun using a great sketch from Christmas Stamping all Year Long Challenge Blog, it was so inspirational, I think I will use this same one again in the future....My backing papers are a mix, the patterned from Tim Coffey and Papermania and the handmade paper - red and green - are from an old scrapbooking kit from Sanook.
All the edges have been distressed and glittered with stickles.

My beautiful 'Gift Giving' Tilda has been coloured using Pro-Markers. I added a little glitter to the gifts. I have gently inked the background of the topper before distressing the edges and glittering. The gems are from our local market.

This gorgeous poinsettia was in the scrapbooking kit from Sanook I added leaves and the little red flowers are from John Lewis.

My tag sentiment was made on the computer, the background has been inked like the topper and then the edges have been distressed and glittered.

I am entering this card into the following challenges:-



Thank you for taking the time to look at my card, I hope you liked it.
Love Susan
