Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny….

Yep that is what I will be sharing with you.  I have to say coloring this stamped image had to be one of the biggest challenges for me.  But it was a fun challenge.  And if you haven’t  guessed by now what I am talking about then let me tell you.  Its all about the Mini Magnolias.  Oh they are so cute but so little.  When I first got them I thought how am I going to use them.  I know they will be great on tags but I wanted to do something other than a tag. Then it came to me.  I will make a match box and decorate the top of it with one of my mini magnolia stamps.  Here it is! Let me know what you think.

My camera did not like this project. It did not pick up the colors on Tilda very accurately. She is so much prettier in person. Especially the color purple.

The swirl is from the Magnolia Doo Hickey Die. And I decided to gold leaf it.
