Tartan Tilda


Tilda's are perfect for paper piecing but my favourite is 50's Tilda, I love all her petticoats. Since this is Wednesday this is the challenge for Simon Says Stamps Challenge. I've tartan looking paper is Olivia from Basic Grey but the dark aqua paper is Kaiser. I embossed the Oval with the swirl from the Cuttlebug and used a MS punch to make the frill round it.
I've used the magnolia swirl die again with EK success flowers.
Simon Says Stamps has a huge selection of Magnolia stamps including the one I've used and Martha Stewart punches. So you won't have any problems if you win the fabulous voucher.
Not much is happening here, I'm busy with some gorgeous new stamps but I'm afraid no peeking till next week.

I have given up trying to keep up my comments with your creations, Debby. You make so many lovely cards and somehow you seem to make them faster than I can comment. I always look back to see anything I missed and, as usual, they are all lovely. This plaid Tilda though is an absolute corker! Warmest wishes, Lesley

Crafty Tam said...

Debby this really is beautiful!

I love the colours and DP's and the way you have done the petticoats. Paper piecing looks great and I think I may have to try it now.
