I colored Tilda with Distress Ink refills.  I am still playing around with these… trying to figure out what works for me.  I ended up using Tattered Rose and Tea dye for her skin… I know, everyone else uses Tattered Rose and Vintage Photo. ugh… the vintage photo really goes yellow on me.  YES, her cheeks got way toooo big on me!  You aren’t supposed to notice! hahahahahahahaha Well, they aren’t near this dark IRL.    I’m not going to give up on them yet… I keep going back and trying again! lol

The pattern paper set I used is Winterberry from Memory Box.  Perfect Layers Tools to mat the main image… link in the right sidebar.

Birdie Kiddo…

So CUTE!  Love these Kiddo stamps from Stampendous!   Lucky for all of us they are 25% off through today at the Scrapping Center… links below… Martha Stewart snowflake punch… EK Success border punch…Tim Holtz Alphabetical die… Distress ink reinkers for coloring. (The pattern paper is from a pad by K & Co.5.5 x 8.5 in. – quite a few years old. It’s a bummer but I’m going to be using old paper for awhile.  One should not hoard paper after-all…waaaahhhhhh no fun!)

I LOVE that they are singing to each other while the snow is swirling around her feet!

Magnolia – Edwin Hiking…

Hi everyone!  The new challenge for this week at Tilda’s Town, HERE, is to ‘create an Autumn scene’.   Well,  I have lots of new stuff that needs used!  So I had to get out this new Tall Tree die I’ve had since the end of May and use it!  I used watercolor paper for all of this card.

This photos shows the side step folding and layering.  I couldn’t find a Magnolia grass die to link to,  so I linked up to a couple other grass dies that will work well for scenes too!

I have to tell you about a new store I’ll be linking to a lot!  I’m so excited about the extensive lines they carry and I think you’ll like it too!  All the stuff I use and love!

Over 90,000 products in stock, ready to ship!  When you shop through my links,  I’ll receive credit to keep buying new stamps and supplies to share here on my blog!   I really appreciate it because I love to stamp and share!

The Scrapping Center has tons of stamps!  Inky Impressions,  Stampendous, Hero Arts, Stampavie, Art Impressions, Magnolia, Stamping Bella and I could go on and on!  Dies too!  Pull down under papercrafting to die-cutting…. I could shop all day!!!

Back to Hiking Edwin… what a handsome guy!  I watercolored all of the images and the die cuts with Distress inks.  I linked to the colors I used below.   Don’t you love Walter the moose?  Cuter than cute.  Although I’m sure he’s yukky IRL! lol   You’ll find these new Magnolia stamps from the Turning Leaves collection at TildasTown.com HERE!  Awesome service… free shipping no matter how big your order… discounts the more you buy!  I love it when an order comes fast!

I cut the watercolor paper 8.5 x 5.5 in.,  then made the side steps.  The first step is 3/4 in, the second is 1 in. and the back one is  2  1/2 in.

I couldn’t find the birds on the sign stamp to link to… I don’t know the name either.  If you want to know holler and I can research some more later.  I used my stamp a ma jig to stamp the words on the sign… it’s an old Hero Arts stamp… lots of stamps would work on a sign!

I used Magnolia Tilda’s Family and Welcome to a Lovely Home stamps.  You’ll find them @ Tilda’s Town.com, HERE and HERE.   I colored them with Distress Ink Reinkers on Canson Manga Pad (last in the list in the link below).

It was fun trying Distress Ink Reinker coloring again…

The pattern papers are from Graphic 45’s Little Darling 8×8 paper pad. I edged all the papers with Antique Linen Distress ink and the ink blending tool.  I used Spellbinders Labels One sets… the largest is from the Grand set.  Seam binding ribbon is from Hug Snug and the button is from SEI.
