Valentine Tilda

Today I got to ink up some more of my new magnolia stamps. I have had the doilie hearts forever, they were originally intended for a scrapbook layout and have been just sat collecting dust. These were just the right size for a card and I couldn't resist making a couple of valentine cards with my new valentine Tilda. I have left space at the bottom of each card to add a sentiment, for some reason I do not have a Happy Valentine stamp! I will have to visit Michael's or Hobby Lobby to get one very soon! Sorry about the photo the light isn't very good today, for some reason and poor Tilda looks a little anemic!!!

I stamped the Tilda's on watercolour paper using permanent ink and I then I coloured them in, using Tim Holtz distress inks, the papers are both Wild asparagus, added some ribbon, blossoms and brads.

Thanks for looking and for all the comments I have received recently, they really make my day:-)

    They are both so lovely in their own unique way! I love the dark doilie and the rich colors of the card. The second one is very pretty too in a vintage sort of way.
