Tulip Love Tilda..

Good morning to you all!

Tina here..
I'm happy to share another make with you..

Those of you who are following me on my Facebook page have already seen some 'work in progress' pics of this, but now I'm finaly ready to share the final result with you..

I am a big fan of cutting dies.. You know that..

And as most of the times I picked a GoKreate set for the card's base..

But let me tell you..

I have a serious addiction to CreaLies dies as well..

They are really growing on me and as you can see I've used them again..

This time I had a play with the Squares with Cross Stitches.. That's what I used to cut the image out..

I keep repeating myself but you get so many sizes in each set, and the price point is awesome!!

I love, love, love them and I will be getting more soon..

I simply need them all! LOL!
Well.. Maybe not all but my wishlist is getting longer and longer..
Check them out HERE.. They are absolutely fantastic!

Here she is.. Tulip Love Tilda from the Hugs & Kisses Collection 2019..

Stamped with Archival Ink and coloured with Distress Inks as usual..

If you're interested in the list of colours just let me know..

The sentiment on her right is from that same collection..

Another detail I'm loving to death is that Round Cabochon on the left..

I cut that beautiful rose out of the paper I used on the back of the card, placed it inside the cabochon and topped it with lots of Glossy Accents..

I'm sure you recognized the paper collection..

Yep.. One of Maja Design's most amazing products..

The Sofiero line..

When it comes to kraft paper, my go to paper is the Bazzil Classic - 12x12 - Kraft..

Let's talk some more about dies..

Lots of Magnolia Doohickeys on here..

The Sakura Background is peeking out on the top and bottom of the card and I placed some wonderful flower sequins on the flowers to add more sparkle..

The Tilda Tickets on the top right corner..

And that tiny tag hanging from the flowers.. The heart on it is from the Heart Band Aid set..

The flowers are from WOC if you were wondering..

There's a doily inside..

The heart dies are from Marianne Design..

This set is called Craftables - Basic Shapes - Hearts..

On the back of the card you can see that I used the Spellbinders Standard Circles Large and a die from the Triple Tear set..

Another doily, and some more half-pearls..

Check out that cabochon once again..

I really, really love it!

The image has a light coat of Distress Micro Glaze on, because I always protect my images with that..

The highlights are made with a Ranger White Opaque Pen and I also used a Wink of Stella Glitter Brush on the Tulip..

Gesso, lace and cheesecloth add that extra shabby feel to the whole thing..

So this is what I wanted to share with you today..

Thanks for stopping by!

Poinsettia Tilda..

Hello dear Craft Heaven Shop lovers!

Tina here..

This card may come as a surprise to you as I'm usually not this early with my Christmas makes, but I guess it doesn't hurt to make some a bit in advance.. LOL!

I had to have a play with some Maja Design papers..
The new collection Denim & Girls is already available in store but I chose the I Wish Collection for this..
There will be plenty of time to play with all the others too.. I hope..

The card's base is made with a GoKreate die - the biggest one of the Large Frames Frilly #5..

The smaller frame frame under the snowflake is a Magnolia Doohickey from the Vintage Square set..

 Here is my beloved Poinsettia Tilda from the Aspen Holidays Collection 2016..

I paired her with a sentiment from that same collection..

The image is stamped with Archival Ink and I coloured her with Distress Inks..

I combine both, ink pads and reinkers..

I also used my sewing machine as you can see..

I always feel a project isn't really finished if I don't add a stitch or two..

Here are some close-ups..

I've used quite a few doilies, some cheesecloth, even some corrugated cardboard that I covered with Gesso to tone it down a bit..

There's a Bark Heart with a little WOC rose on top..

A gorgeous and very sparkly button, some lace..

And let's not forget the Snowflurry Background Doohickey..

I used it on the front and on the inside..

The top one consists of three layers.. It was a nasty job, I tell you, but I really wanted it to be sturdy so it won't break that easily..

The inside circles are made with Spellbinders dies..

One Standard Circle Large and a Petite Scalloped Circle Large..

The one on the back is from the Triple Tear set..

Just gorgeous..

There are lots of half-pearls on the front and back as well..

The dots around her are white Frantage embossing powder.. 

The layer behind the stamped image is made out of Bazzill Classic 12x12 Kraft..

My absolute favourite when it comes to kraft paper..

The snowflakes are cut out of Bazzill Cardstock as well.. That's the Bazzill Mono Canvas 12x12 in white..

Also a favourite of mine..

Well that's all.. For now..

I really hope you enjoyed your stay, got inspired and learned something new!
Stay tuned.. I have another project coming up very very soon..

xoxo

Tina

Tilda with Early Bird..

Hello everyone!
It's me again.. Tina..

Here I have a new project that I sure hope brightens your day..

The papers are a mix of Vintage Summer Basics, Vintage Autumn Basics and Vintage Frost Basics from Maja Design..

The kraft details are made out of Bazzill Classic Kraft 12x12..

I stamped some vintage postmarks on those.. You know I love them..

Here is the image.. Stamped with Archival Ink and coloured with Distress Inks..

Her name is Tilda with Early Bird and was released in 2018..

It's one of the super cute stamps from the Le Fleur Upgrade..

Here's a full list of the colours I used if you're interested..

Skin

Vintage Photo, Tattered Rose

Cheeks

Tattered Rose, Aged Mahogany

Hair

Antique Linen, Walnut Stain

Dress

Victorian Velvet, Pumice Stone, Black Soot

Heart Pockets

Festive Berries, Aged Mahogany

Boots

Pumice Stone, Black Soot

Bird
Squeezed Lemonade, Scattered Straw, Hickory Smoke

Grass

Old Paper, Peeled Paint, Forest Moss

Now let's talk about the dies..

The gorgeous circle I used to cut out the image is a CreaLies Circle with Open Scallop..

I just cannot recommend these dies enough..

They cut beautifully and you can find them in all kind of shapes, with all kinds of finishes..

And you get soooo many different sizes in each set.. 

I tell you.. I'm in love with these and I will use them a whole lot for sure..

Of course I just had to use the square set as well.. They complement each other marvellously..

The square set is called Squares with Open Scallop..

You can find them all HERE..

The card's base was made with a GoKreate Frame Frilly #15..

The tags and fence are both Magnolia Dohickey dies..

One is called Bloomy Tag and the other Lovely Fence..

I used Spellbinders Standard Large Circles and Petite Scalloped Circles Large for my handmade logo on the back..

A shot from the side to show you some more details..

The chipboard element is from Scrapiniec.. From the Boho Love collection to be more precise..

I made the dots around the image adding some Frantage embossing powder..

Not sure if you can tell but the pockets on her pants are covered with Nuvo Crystal Glaze and the flowers in her hair are all sparkly because I added some Stardust Stickles on top of them..

I think the House charm is absolutely adorable.. Isn't it?

I've used my sewing machine to stitch the paper edges, added lots of half-pearls and all sorts of WOC flowers all over the place..

There's also some cheesecloth here and there and different kinds of absolutely gorgeous lace..

All with a light touch of Dina Wakley Media Gesso on..

 If you're interested in the products I used, don't forget to click on the links below..

That's all for today lovely people..

I wish you all a fantastic day!

And of course.. Thanks for stopping by!

BathTub Tilda and a VIDEO TUTORIAL..

Good morning people!

Tina here with a new card for you..
You might have seen a sneak peek on my Facebook page already..
This is what I've been working on lately..

For starters I chose the dies for the base of the card..
I picked one of the GoKreate Large Frames Frilly #6..
The other one behind the image is from the same company but from the #10 set..

The image was cut out with one of the Spellbinders Standard Circles Large and I placed a slightly bigger cut-out from Bazzil Classic Kraft behind that..
That one is from the Fancy Edged Circles set..

I'm on a hard mission people.. I wanna use as much paper scraps as I can and make room for new supplies, so I found some very, very, very old Reprint papers in my stash and combined those with the gorgeous Maja Design papers from the Vintage Spring Basics, Vintage Frost Basics and Vintage Baby 6x6 Paper Pads..

I'm sure you know this cutie already..
Her name is BathTub Tilda from the Let's Go Collection 2019..
I used her once before to make a video tutorial on how to transfer a coloured image onto a candle..
If you haven't seen it yet, I would be thrilled if you watched it now..
I think this is a super fun technique..

As usually I played with my Distress Inks to colour her up..

Here's a list of all the colours if you're interested:

Skin

Vintage Photo, Tattered Rose

Cheeks

Tattered Rose, Aged Mahogany

Hair

Antique Linen, Walnut Stain

Bathtub

Pumice Stone, Black Soot / Legs: Scattered Straw, Dried Marigold, Pumice Stone

Bubbles
Weathered Wood, Pumice Stone

Background

Weathered Wood, Pumice Stone, Antique Linen

After I was done with the colouring, I used a Wink of Stella glitter brush to add sparkle to the bubbles and I covered them all with Glossy Accents..

It's super sparkly and the shiny finish is just a cherry on top..

The white dots around her are made with Frantage and I always seal the image with a tiny bit of Distress Micro Glaze to preserve it as much as possible..

The doiles are everywhere.. Again.. Honestly I just cannot work without them..
The texture they give is such a nice touch, don't you think?
Same goes for cheesecloth..
A must for me..

I've used the same Spellbinders circle dies on the inside and the postmarks are also the same ones I used around Tilda..
These are Magnolia stamps as well and this specific set is called New York..

There's a bit of soft lace tied on the tags and another super gorgeous lace from Craft Heaven Shop peeking out on the sides..
And the Perfume Bottle charm hanging on there? Don't you love it?

The Scalloped Tag die is from Magnolia, and so is the Mini Doily that I used on the back of the card..
Another Doohickey you can spot on here is the VideofyMe Bubbles.. Simply perfect for this image..

The paper flowers are from WOC..
They are covered in Gesso and I also added some light touches of Nuvo Crystal Drops on them to make them look like they have water droplets on..
My choice was Morning Dew.. This one dries clear so it was perfect for the job..
The half-pearls are from my stash..

Well.. I think I covered it all..
Hope you'll come back for more..
If you have questions don't hesitate to contact me..
I'm more than glad to help..

Thanks so much for stopping by!
I wish you all an amazing day!

xoxo

Tina

Tilda with Little Chickens..

Hello everyone!
Tina here..

I'm finally able to share a new card with you..

I picked three of my all time fave Magnolia dies..
They are all so pretty.. I couldn't just stick with one..
They are the Tilda Tag, the Mini Doily (you will find it on the back of the card) and the Chicken Wire..

I used a gorgeous CreaLies die for the card's base..

The papers are all Maja Design..
From the Celebration Collection to be exact..

This sweetie pie is called Tilda with Little Chickens and she's a part of the SunBeam Collection 2018..

I coloured her with Distress Inks..

Here's a list of all the colours I used:

Skin

Vintage Photo, Tattered Rose

Cheeks

Tattered Rose, Aged Mahogany

Hair

Antique Linen, Walnut Stain

Pants

Weathered Wood, Pumice Stone, Black Soot

Shirt

Tumbled Glass, Iced Spruce, Pumice Stone, Black Soot

Shoes

Walnut Stain, Pumice Stone, Black Soot

Grass

Old Paper, Peeled Paint, Forest Moss

Chickens

Scattered Straw, Dried Marigold, Hickory Smoke

After I was done with the colouring, I used a Wink of Stella glitter brush to add sparkle to the chickens, bows, shirt and pants..

It doesn't show in the picture but it's all sparkly, I promise..

I made the white dots around her with the Frantage embossing powder and sealed everything with a tiny bit of Distress Micro Glaze..

The image was cut out with one of the Spellbinders Opulent Ovals..

I've used a whole lot of doiles everywhere..
One on the front, one on the inside and even a smaller one on the back..
The ovals inside are made with the Spellbinders Petite Ovals Large and Petite Scalloped Ovals Large..

The postmarks are the same ones I used around Tilda..
These two stamp sets are called New York and Postcard..

There's a bit of white Vintage Seam Binding tied on the tag and the super gorgeous lace you see peeking on the sides is the Lace Elisabeth..

My kraft paper of choice is the Bazzil Classic Kraft in 12x12''..
And what do you think about that super cute house charm? I love it!

The paper flowers are from WOC and Magnolia..
They are covered in Gesso..
And I'm sure you noticed there are lots and lots of half-pearls scattered around..

That's all for today lovely people..

Thank you sooo much for popping by!

xoxo

Tina

Bunny Love..

Good morning fellow crafters!

It's been a long time since I posted something on here but I'm happy to be finally able to share something new with you all..

Here is a super cute notebook for a very special young girl..

I think you all know how much I love Maja Design papers, but this time I decided to have a play with my other favourite paper brand: Pion Design..

I picked 2 sheets from the Where the Roses Grow collection (Rose Meadow & In the Garden) and matched them with the gorgeous Pion Design Palette Pink I and Pink II..

All the flowers on here are WOC except a few..

Creating scenes like this is one of the things I love the most..

I used an older Magnolia background stamp and two stamps from the SunBeam Collection 2018..

Tilda with Little Bunny and the Sunbeam Bunnies Kit..

I coloured the image with Distress Inks.. I use both, the ink pads and reinkers..

I always use a tiny bit of Distress Micro Glaze to seal and protect my images..

Here is a long and detailed list of the colours I used for this scene:

Skin:

Vintage Photo, Tattered Rose

Hair:

Antique Linen, Walnut Stain

Cheeks:

Tattered Rose, Aged Mahogany

Pants:

Weathered Wood, Pumice Stone, Black Soot

Shirt:

Vitorian Velvet, Scattered Straw, Pumice Stone, Black Soot

Bunnies:

Pumice Stone, Hickory Smoke

Shoes:

Walnut Stain, Pumice Stone, Black Soot

Greenery:

Old Paper, Peeled Paint, Forest Moss

There are lots of different layers on this cover..

A paper doily, multiple layers of paper, distressed and machine sewn.. Some lace, a bit of cheesecloth.. Tons of half-pearls..

I used one of the beautiful charms from the shop called Flower Basket..

Magnolia Doohickeys are one of my fave dies out there and I used quite a few for this project..

You can see the Jeans Tags on the top left corner, the Letter Tag on the right, both stamped all over with the Postcard and New York stamp sets..

The leaves that accompany the flower arrangements are from the Lilac set..

The hearts I scattered around are cut with the Heart Background Doohickey as well..

More Magnolia dies on the back of the notebook..

The little doily and the Old Swedish Lace..

The notebook is closed with a bit of white Vintage Seam Binding and I also tied a Pink Flower Pendant to that..

The love chipboard embellishment is a Scrapiniec piece of course..

There are more than 200 different designs to choose from in the shop but I felt this one was the missing detail on here..

If you are wondering what's all that sparkle on the hearts..

Easy.. The amazing Nuvo Drops.. These are Glitter Drops in the colour White Blizzard..

That's all for today folks..

I truly hope you enjoyed..

Thanks for stopping by!!

For Your Very First Birthday..

Hey y'all!

Every Moment Matters

and I promised you a new creation of mine soon..

So it's me (DT Tina) who will be giving you some inspiration today..

This is my creation for this week..

A colleague at work asked me if I could make a precious little gift for her granddaughter's 1st Birthday so I made a card with one of my absolute favourite Magnolia images..

And some Maja Design papers of course..

This is Rose Cake Tilda from the BOHO Collection 2015..

I stamped her with Jet Black Archival Ink and coloured with Distress Inks..

If you are following my work on FB too you might have seen already a video on how I'm adding all those accents around..

A lot of accidents happened while I was working on that but as you can see it's all good in the end.. LOL!

I used  two more Magnolia stamp sets around the image and on the inside..

I'm talking about the Postcard and New York sets..

I used Memento Rich Cocoa to stamp those and I did some second generation stamping because I didn't want them to be too bold..

There are a lot of details on here and I did my best to make this gift as pretty as I could..

I used one of the most gorgeous Magnolia Doohickey's called Tilda Tag, then I tied some of our white Vintage Seam Binding on those..

Lots and lots of WOC flowers..

Different sizes and colours of half-pearls..

Paper doilies, the Balloon dies from one of the Magnolia Doohickey Club Kits..

Some twine and embellies that I made with my moulds..

Pearl string and Scrapiniec Chipboards..

Our Lace Fleur..

The Mini Doily Doohickey and an older Martha Stewart Punch on the back..

Gesso, embossing powders, Stickles and more..

If you want to see all the details up close and get an even more detailed description of the products used
I suggest you visit my blog HERE or my Magnolia only blog HERE..
Big pics and lots of info there..

I guess this is it.. For now..
Thanks for sticking with me until the end..
I sincerely hope you enjoyed today's post and of course.. Hope to see you here tomorrow too..

And don't forget to order your new Magnolia stamps..
The Springtime Collection 2017 is HERE..

Hugs, Tina (Craft Heaven Shop DT)
