Just Magnolia Challenge 4

Hi everyone, hope your week is going well. My card today is for Just Magnolia where this week the challenge is stitching and again the DT have come up with some fabulous inspiration for us all. I've used this cute Tilda from the Spring Kit and watercoloured her with distress inks, I cut her out and then added some stardust stickles. The background paper was a scrap so I don't know the company, it's very pretty icecream colours with a shimmer. Added some layers of white card with a punched edge, flowers, Elzybells sentiment, bow and faux stitching with a pink sparkle gel pen to finish. I think it looks a bit as if Tilda is running in through the lace curtains :) TFL. Chris x

Gorgeou card Chris, love the pretty border. The paper is "Tutti Frutti" by Craft Work Cards. I recognised it as soon as I saw it. I was addicted to these a few years ago and still have a little pad of them. hope that helps!
