Hi, Wednesday's is usually the day when i show some cards made with Magnolia stamps from an older line. My friends and myself had emails asking if there would be a blog were everybody could show the own card rather, than linking it underneath on one of our blogs. We have decided to start the "Old Magnolia Challenge blog" This is a very casual blog. We will not have any prizes organized. We just want to offer a "meeting point" for those of you who also love the old images and want to show the cards made with those cuties.
Stamps: Tilda with candy cane, candy cane from the Christmas 2008 Collection, Sentiment: Amuse Artstamps
For the challenge today i have chosen "Tilda with candy cane" from the 2008 Christmas Collection, i wanted to participate for so long on the "Christmas All Year Long" challenge blog. Besides coloring Tilda with Copic Markers i used Shimmerz paints in Celery Green (shadows on dress) and Pixie Dust on her apron. On the candy cane i used something i got the other day from 7kids.. its called SMOOH paint (Pearlized Accent Ink) pretty neat stuff. It almost looks like a nail polish the bottle has a super fine brush and i was able to get with that shimmery paint into all the little corners without trouble. On Tilda's wings and on the withe ares of the candy cane i have used Stickles.

Fabulous card Claudia, oh just love everything about it.
Aww, Claudia, what a sweet card. I'm very tempted to do a Christmas card or two now. I've always like the cards where you do a lot of stitching--adds a little something to them. Adorabble Tilda image. Have to pass on the challenge this time as I don't have this stamp--at least until Diana restocks, hee hee.
Hugs.

You sure are ahead of many of us, making X'mas card already??!!! Like the style of this card, it is to me a combination style mixed between the elegant and country. I bought some Shimmerz paints a while ago and was intimating to try them. Now that your card really inspired me and made me wanted to go try them.
