Mini Monday Magnolia Mini Tildas Floral Secret Box

Good morning and happy Monday.  Today is another Mini Monday over at Magnolia-licious & Wee Stamps Challenge Blog.  The Mini Magnolia Stamps project I did is a secret box.  You can find it's tutorial HERE or yo can check outmy DT sis Norma's Blog HERE for a taller verison.

I've made this secret box to hold some of my smaller handmade flowers.  I also used some of the handmade flowers to embellish this project. I was able to pick some Tilda stamps that she holds flowers to match up with the floral theme of my project.  The three mini stamps are: Mini Tilda Brings Flower, Mini Tilda with Spring Bundle, Mini Tilda with Daisy.  Instead of leaving the top cover open, I did a 'lid' for this and it actually closed the box better.

 

I am using this project for the following challenges:

Whimsical Designs Challenge - Flowers

Bearly-Mine Challenge 82 - Spring Flowers

Creative Card Crew Challenge 34 - Handmade Flowers

Creative Moments Challenge 15 - Spring

Allsorts Week 203 - A Passion For Flowers

Docerela Creations Challenge 36 - Use Flowers

Robyn's Fetish Challenge 156 - Make your own flowers

Lovely hAnglar or Sweet Magnolia 67 - Spring

Totally Gorjuss Challenge 180 - Embossing

 

Here is the view when the box is opened.  Instead of leaving the top cover open, I did a 'lid' for this and it actually closed the box better.  The lid is made with a piece of 3 1/2" square and score at 1/4" for all four sides Besides the stamp topper, I added all the flowers I made these past few weeks.

Bride Tilda Distress ink + Copic coloring

Good morning, a short post today.
I've never tried painting with distress ink, but since going through so many wonderful bloggers' blogs and saw their wonderful painting job, I decided to play a little with it and see what it would turn out. Also, I've never tried using water color paper before. This image was stamped on a 140lb water color paper.

I bought this Bride Tilda from Magnolia-licious a while ago, but never get a free moment to use it. Today I picked her as my practice and was hoping I am able to get some vintage theme somehow. Hehe, thank you Bride Tilda for letting me to try you!!

I tried to take a pictures on each set of colors I used to share with you today. The Distress Ink I used for this practice is "Walnet Stain".

This is my finished image coloring. As you see, that I painted over the outlines, which happens to me often, because I tend to use the lightest color to brush over top and blend the colors, so for not caring about painting it over the image outline since I usually cut out the images for my projects.

Skin tone: E11, E00, E000, Distress ink


Outline - W00, W1, W5, Distress Ink

Hair & Crown- YR24, YR23, Y17, Y00

Wedding Gown - BG93, W5, W1, W00

Bouquet - R59, R14, R02, G99, G21

Ok, that's all I have to share with you today and hope you like this post :o) Thank you for stopping by today and hope to see you again soon!
