Tilda and Co Challenge Card


This week's challenge is:


Decoupage Tilda & Co
Now for this week..... I would love to see you decoupage with your magnolia stamps.
This could be as simple as having a Tilda or Edwin, that is holding something, you then stamp that image out twice, cut out the item he/she is holding and then layer it up with foam pads or silicone glue, to give a 3d effect
Or you could go totally wild and build up lot’s of layers.


I am not very keen on decoupage - but have been experimenting with some of my stamps over the last couple of weeks, so I was quite inspired by this challenge.
This is my offering:

I have used 3 images of Tilda and heart parcel and watercoloured them.
I have given her dress and face 2 layers and her hair 3 layers. I have used foam pads - I hate them with a passion as I find the backs really difficult to get off!!
The backing papers are from the Papermania Retro Floral pack.
The ribbon is from a blouse!!
I have added plasters to her knees as I think she has that tomboyish attitude that means she'll have plasters on her knees!!
I hope you like it.
