Friady Sketchers & Just Magnolia

I seem to be going very pale and delicate at the moment, could be something to do with the flourescent green for Colour Create on Thursday - my eyes and senses need a rest.

This is for Just Magnolia's request for embossing added to the sketch at Friday Sketchers sketch. Tilda was kindly sent to me by the ever so lovely Tara and coloured with Copics. I painted her wings with gold H2O's and also gave her some gold streaks in her hair, not that it shows . I have three layers of embossing - the  circle is Swiss Dots, the octagon is Divine Swirls and the Square is done by using folder 3 of the Fancy folders 
and embossing the corners one at a time.
The leaves are cut with the flowers, leaves and branch set from Sizzix and the flower made using the small and medium Cherry blossom punch from Woodware.

Image- Magnolia Tilda from the Summer collection
Medium - Copic markers and H2O's iridescent gold
Papers - none
Tools - Spellbinders nestie octagons and squares  :  Provocraft embossing folder Swiss dots, Divine Swirls and Fancy corners  :  Sizzix Flowers, leaves and branch set  :  Woodware Cherry Blossom punches small & medium
Embellishments  -  Ribbon, pearls, spacer & pearl brad from stash
