A "Tilda" "Winterbird" layout with lots of doilies and flowers.


Some time back I bought a stack of pretty floral Tilda papers. The collection is called "Winterbird". 
I am always a sucker for rose-patterned papers and these have roses in abundance.
I had not used the papers yet, but last week when Beatrice and I went to Stockholm we visited the large Panduro hobby store with Eila and now I felt inspired to put the papers to use.
This time I used some of the papers that did not have a floral pattern as I was going to add a lot of flowers and use a floral die cut.

This is the page I made with the Tilda collection.




         I distressed the edges of my base and border cut the dotted paper using a Martha Stewart punch.
I also painted with a little gesso around the outlines .




I bought these gorgeous doily dies from Cheery Lynn Designs and I really feel like using them on all my projects at the moment. They are just so pretty! The title stickers are from Prima Marketing. I just made hem black instead of brown, and added some red glitter glue.




Even the black swirl is a Prima Marketing one.It came off a big sheet with three or four, and it was pretty neat because you could cut off just bits as the swirls were so large.




The doilies are from a packet of mulberry flowers and doilies from Prima marketing.




The photo was taken one afternoon at the beach nearby. Journalling says that we did not swim even if we had planned to, because it felt a little windy and too cold.
So we went to the canal and had some ice cream there instead.


I would also like to share that the winter layout in my previous post was quite well received at Two Peas and reached the Top 3.
I have been very fortunate lately on Two Peas!!!!



Thanks for taking the time to visit me and check on my creative endeavors.
It is so much appreciated. Take care until next time!
