Patchwork Tilda

Good Morning World! (I hope this has worked, Im hoping this will post on it's own) if it doesnt I'm sorry!

We have a new Challenge at Creative Inspirations & this week we'd love to see some patchwork.....yes thats right just like those gorgeous quilts!

For my card I have used a 6x6 square blank, pink card from paper mill, paper is papermania rose garden (I still love this paper) I cut 4 squares of the stripy paper & pink rose paper with my square nesties, I have added some faux stitching round the edge of the papers with a white sakura pen, Magnolia Princess Tilda stamped in Memento & colored with Pro Markers & Stardust stickles, round the image & gretting I have distressed the card with my distressing tool & the pearls are from my stash, roses from Hobbycraft.

I was slightly worried when I saw this theme - but now I've finished my card I really like it!
I'm also entering this into the Just Magnolia - My favourite things challenge as I've used my favourite papers, pro markers, star dust stickles & my all-time favourite Magnolia stamp.

I can't wait for you to join in our challenge - see you over HERE

There is that pretty paper again! First let me thank you for the beautiful box you made and sent to me with that cute little drawer filled with goodies. Because of your gift I can REALLY appreciate the beautiful work you have done with this card - I love the way you make Tilda sparkle and your use of soft colors - the design work is wonderful Caroline.
