Hello ladies, today i want to show you a card made with one of those new Magnolia Mini stamps.
I have gotten a few in my last DT parcel and i must say i had pushed the task away and away. I simply had no idea what to make with them. Than the other day i came across some old Stampin up stamps. If you look at my sentiment… in the middle was instead of Tilda a Monkey and it had almost the same size. I cut him out and glued Tilda in the spot.
Do i think it will take less time to make a card with a Mini Tilda? ABSOLUTELY not for me. I probably fussed way too much around. Most of my embellishments are compared to Tilda way too over scaled and i felt everything i tried took attention rather away from the image, instead of supporting it. However… i love little 3x3 cards which can be given away inside a little box, i think I am going to try to make bunch of those next.
This card is 4x4 and i still think it is a bit too large for this image – if there would be not such a big sentiment surrounding Tilda and making the focal point image larger than it actually is.
Stamps: Mini Butterfly Tilda
(Chasing Butterfly Collection) Mini’s soon available through Cute Stamps and Cards
Sentiment: Stampin up (Hostess gift Level 3 – retired)
Paper: My Minds Eye
Dies: CREAlies border die, Spellbinder oval
PS TIP: If you never have taken a rubberstamp off your wooden block.. here is what you can try. Heat your stamp in the microwave on high for about 20 seconds, take it out – careful it is hot. Peel rubber including EZ mount off the block. Now you can eigher take the EZ mount off your rubber too and remount it on Cling EZ mount OR cut just those parts from your stamp out that you want to keep. I like to do this mostly with sentiments.
Hope this little info helps one of you.

Hugs Dianne xx :)
Wow Claudia really beautiful! My mini stamps are still far away from me LOL.. they are really hard to work with..
Hugs, Marley
Ooh my! How cute! Really sweet looking. I find these little ones hard to colour. You have done a great job. Have you thought of creating a little scenery with both big and small magnolias? I think you can pull that off!
Love n hugs

Hi Claudia,
wow this is breath taken.
Great image and colouring.
Oh Claudia, I absolutely ADORE your Mini Tilda (I am awaiting delivery of my next batch of them) and the beautiful papers and embellies. You are so clever with your colouring too, it is amazing work. Hugs, Sxx
Ich kann mir vorstellen das zo ein kleiner stempel schwierigkeiten besorgt. Ich habe mal eine mini TIlda gehabt.Die habe ich verschenkt.
Finde aber das deine karte gut gelungen ist. Schön mit dem sentiment. Passt super dazu. Bin gespannt auf deine kleineren karten.

What a gorgeous card. What a great idea of jusing Mini Tilda beween the sentiments of another stamp.
I don't think the embelishments draw away the attention ot Tilda.

Beautiful mini card, and thank you for the idea! hugs, Frances.
Darling card, Claudia! Love your colors and Tilda is just so cute. Thanks for the tip on releasing stamps from the blocks. I'd really love to do that with a lot of my stamps when I have time.
I think your card was awesome and your coloring makes me look at Tilda first anyway!!
she is really adorable claudia.
beautiful card.
greetings karin
Beautiful mini stamp!!
and fabulous desing papers!

Hi Claudia,
I love the minis and I am collecting them, but I have to admit I hardly ever use them. They seem, like you said, even too mini for small cards. The new minis are even smaller than the older ones. It's a little sad, since they are so cute.
But back to your card :-)
I think you did an amazing job using the butterfly Tilda, which is one of the bigger minis. The image really pops out of the card and looks wonderful!!

adorable! I love these minis
Hi Rosa!
You make fabulous cards...
I reaaly love this one. The mini-Tilda is so cute...
Gorgeous!

You've done a wonderful job showcasing the mini Tilda! I'd love to know how you made or where you found the lovely lacy heart behind the oval. You always seem to outdo yourself with every new post! TFS
Lovely card!

I love how you've mounted Tilda in the middle of the sentiment - it fits perfectly ;) And I don't think Tilda is too small when you've this gorgeous sentiment :)
Thanks for kind words on my blog btw ;)

Very sweet cards Claudia...great idea to remove the monkey...Tilda is much prettier....haha.
I agree though, the size of the card is an issue when using mini Magnolias. You've nailed this one as alwways sweetie :-D

Hello Claudia, I've read you all the way, and must say I love your card very much. Love what you did with the mini Tilda, the sentiment around her is a good idea to make the image take more "space" and be emphasized. You papers are lovely,and color combo fabulous.
Hugs. D.,
Claudia, these cards are darling. I love the sentiment you chose.
Cute card and what a wonderful idea to put Tilda in the middle of that stamp. She looks so cute. I love the papers. I had literally just finished going through my new pack of them for a card I'll make tomorrow. I can't wait to use mine. TFS!
Awe! This is just beautiful!!!!!!!!!
