Simon Says...Shabby Chic !

 
Hi

The theme for this week's challenge over at Simon Says is Shabby Chic

Here's what I've made:



I love this new Tilda from the Magnolia Stamp Club Winter Collection and she looks delightful sitting on top of the Magnolia New Year's Glass. 



I used the masking technique, stamping Tilda first, masking her using a Post It Note Template and then using my Stamp-a-Ma-Jig to position the glass.  I distressed the edges of my image using the Tim Holtz Paper Distressing Tool and Ranger Distress Inks




Recipe:

Stamps: Magnolia
Ink: Memento Black and Ranger Distress Ink in Firebrick and Antique Linen
Colouring Medium: Copic Markers and Copic Spica Glitter Pens
Papers: K&Co and Gold Pearl Card from my stash
Embellishments: Flowers - Papermania and roses from my stash. Lace, charm and pearls from my stash.
Tools: Nesties Labels 8 with Sizzix Big Shot, Tim Holtz Paper Distressing Tool

Thanks for stopping by today.  Hope you like it.

Hugs

Fabulous card Penni. Tilda looks perfect placed on the glass. That's such a pretty colour combo and those papers are beautiful.
