Pink Tilda Christmas!!

Good afternoon dear crafty friends...I guess evening to some!!!

I'm back with my second post of the day!!  You can scroll down for my Fresh Brewed Design post. 

I'm trying really hard to get those special Christmas cards done...every spare moment that I have is spent in the craft room and let me tell you there are not enough hours in the day...lol!!!

I have been longing to work with this sweet Tilda from the new Magnolia "Waiting for Christmas" collection since I received them and I finally got to her!!  I have to say that right now she would probably be my favourite Magnolia stamp and that is hard to say as there are SO many sweet Tildas!!!

Okay so here is what I came up with...
                                  
please click on the first image for a closer view/slideshow...
the pictures don't show the card base colour very well...it looks red but it is actually a deep rose colour...
the card base and matts are cut using Go Kreate dies...
I also ran pink lace down the one side with the ribbon but I think that I covered it up...lol!!! 
 this is "It's Cold Outside Tilda" from the new Magnolia collection...
I used my distress inks again...
added glitter to the swirls and her fur trim and pearls to the swirling "snow drifts"...
 and again cause I just can't resist this cutie pie!!!!...
 I mounted a chiffon ribbon and berry cluster on a wooden star that I distress inked and Frantaged then added pearls to the corners and a Whimsy die cut tag topped off with a glittery snowflake charm from The Ribbon Girl...
 the poinsettias are cut from the Doo Hickey Club Kit #2...
I painted the darker ones and Frantaged the pale pink...
 tags and one of the new crystal stick pins from The Ribbon Girl that I added a crystal Angel charm to (also from The Ribbon Girl)...
I tied crystal bead strings (also from The Ribbon Girl) to the two outside tags...
 the inside using "Merry Christmas" from Magnolia (sorry can't remember which collection)...
more Maja paper, poinsettias, tags and ribbon...
the base REALLY is deep rose...lol!!...
 
Okay so that is it for me for today!!  Break from work is over...time to get BUSY!!
