Tilda with Big Ballon

Have you seen the new Magnolia's collection called Lost & Found? It's so so so CUTE! I got some stamps from this collection in my stamp club kit and ordered all the rest in Creashop Duymelot. :) I still think the releases of new collections are too close together. We just had Little Circus Moscow (I still have 4 unused stamps) and here we are with Lost & Found collection. I love them all, but it takes a lot of money to follow them ... can anyone guess which city will be next? We already had London and Moscow - Paris? Tokyo? Sydney? New Delhi? New York? Cairo? ..... all I know is that I'll have to have them. ;)

Here's my card. Have a great week everybody! ;)

For this gift bag I used:

• colors: TH distress ink markers and distress ink pads
• ink: archival black
• watercolor paper: Langton HP 300g
• design papers: Maja design - Sofiero
• stamp: Tilda with big balloon (Lost & Found coll., 2014)
• die: DooHickey - So wrapped lovely, heart swirl
• white lace
• paper doily
• pink cotton cord 
• wooden heart button
• flowers from I am roses
• stickles glue (stardust)
• shabby pink frantage
• pink fragments.

Stamp is of course from Magnolia, it's called Joyful Tilda from Christmas story collection, 2012. Pine three die is from TH. There is also a lot of clear rock candy glitter and crackle paint (all from TH).

I used a lot of flowers. You can see the complete list of them under the photos. I hope you'll like my Red and green Christmas card. ;)
