Tilda's Easter Basket

Hi

Our challenge this week over at Midweek Magnolia's is to use your favourite Magnolia Stamp and also to tell us why it is your favourite - sounds easy?  Well, not for me !!!  I found it quite difficult to choose one favourite Magnolia Stamp, I have so many favourites LOL!!!!

I eventually managed to narrow it down to one, and here's how I used it.


I made a cute little basket using Ballerina Bunny Tilda.  I love this stamp and she is definitely my favourite (at the moment!!!).  I love her chunky little legs and her bunny ears, she's just sooo cute!!!

I coloured this stamp using my Copic Markers, here's a close-up:


I also decorated the back of my basket...


I'm going to enter this card into the following challenges:

Cutie Pie Challenge Blog - Easter
Cuttin' and Stampin' Challenge - Easter
Magnolia-Licious - Spring
The Ribbon Carousel Challenge - Spring is in the Air
Tuesday Throwdown - Something 3D



RECIPE: 

Magnolia Stamp - Ballerina Bunny Tilda
Colouring Medium - Copic Markers
Tags - Stampin Up Tiny Tags Stamps and Tiny Tags Punch
Lace, Twine, Gems, Mini Safety Pin, Bunny Charm, Heart Pin from my stash
Marianne Designs Butterfly Die
Martha Stewart Branch Punch
Kraft Card
Small Chocolate Eggs

To make my basket, I followed a fabulous tutorial by Jenny.  It's a fabulous step by step tutorial and is really easy to follow - thanks for sharing this tutorial Jenny.


So now it's time to pop on over to the Midweek Magnolia Challenge Blog and find out which stamps are the favourites of our Design Team.  I'm sure you'll find plenty of inspiration for this week's challenge there too.

Thanks for visiting today.

Thanks Penni, I thought I had read all your post but must have just read to the recipe part and missed the last bit with the link to the tutorial, thanks for letting me know
I am sure mine won't look anywhere near as good as yours but I will have a good go at one
Have a great weekend
