Edwin Wants A Hug

My friend's nephew is celebrating his first birthday and here's the card I made for him..

This is Edwin Wants A Hug from the You're So Special Collection 2011..

I used an Anita's Square Quality White Card Blank for the base.. The patterned papers are from Magnolia.. The blue and white textured papers from Papermania..

This butterfly is a Magnolia Doohickey.. And so is the Star Tag which is made out of a pice of corrugated cardboard ..

The white pearls are from WOC.. the blue ones from Kaisercraft..

These beautiful paper flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts.. The blue stamen is from a local store..

All the edges are distressed and sewn..

I added a little bit of crackle paint on the star.. And there's some cheesecloth under the second layer of paper..

The flags are also a Doohickey .. I added some crackle paint on them too..

I used the Tim Holtz Typeset alphabet to cut out the boys name and the Vintage Market Alphabet die for the number 1..

The image is stamped on 300g Montval Canson acquarel paper and coloured with Distress Inks..

Can you see the Liquid Pearls around Edwin???

This is my Tilda With Flower Pot from the Magnolia Butterfly Dreams Collection 2011..

This tag is made with a Magnolia Doohickey called Bloomy Tag.. I added some white lace on it..

The brown pearls are from Kaisercraft..

The lace border is also made with a Magnolia die.. This is the Antique Lace die..

There are some Baby Blue Stickles on the butteflies and Liquid Pearls around the image..

This gorgeous white flower is from Petaloo - Mulberry Street..

I made the brown flowers with my brand new Die-namics Mini Rolled Roses die and I added some pearls in  the center.. The leaves are made with an EK-Success punch..

All the paper edges are distressed with Walnut Stain Distress Ink and sewn with a sewing machine..

Lately I feel like none of my cards is really finished if I don't sew the paper edges.. :))

This wonderful die-cut is a Spellbinders die - Floral Ovals.. I love it..

Bubbling Tilda

I have a new card to show you today..
This one was made for the Just Magnolia Challenge - Week #153 - Soft Spring Shades..
We had to use pastel colours and I really like how my card turned out..

For this one I used my Magnolia Bubbling Tilda from the Fairy Tale Collection 2010..
The sentiment stamp is from Inkadinkado - Personal Impressions..
The papers are from Magnolia and Papermania..

The image is stamped with StazOn Timber Brown ink on 300g Canson acquarel paper and coloured with Distress Inks..

This beautiful border die is a Magnolia Doohickey I bought recently.. It's called Heart Flower Lace..

I used some corrugated cardboard and decorated it with Picket Fence Crackle Paint..
There's some cheesecloth under the corrugated cardboard..

The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts.. They were both white.. I coloured the left one with the same Distress Ink I used for the dress..

Not sure you can see it well but all the bubbles are covered with Clear Rock Candy Crackle Paint..
The paper edges are as usual distressed with Walnut Stain and sewn with a sewing machine..

The filigree corner and the gemstones are also from WOC.. I've put some Crackle Paint on the corner too..

I just love her sparkling wings.. I did this with Glossy Accents and some Martha Stewart glitter..
The dots around the image are made with Liquid Pearls..

So sorry for the bad photos.. I'm getting my camera repaired next week and I'm hoping to get my light tent too.. In the meantime I suggest you enlarge the photos to get a better view..

I'm also entering it in the Midweek Magnolias Challenge - Week #8 - Open Theme..

Hope you enjoyed..
I wish you all a great day!!!
