Just Magnolia - 'Romantic Doily' challenge

Morning all - it's Friday again, so time for another Just Magnolia challenge, which this week is 'Romantic Doily'. They're just so popular at the moment arn't they?!! Seem to be just about everywhere, so it should suit most crafters & of course very open to different interperatations...so what will you do? Make sure you enter using the link to the challenge blog above - we'd love to see what you do with yours! Don't forget to head over to the rest of the design team too - they've some real beauties for you as usual! Anyhow here's what I did with mine...

...The beautiful papers are by Fancy Pants and actually came free with a copy of Simply Cards & Papercrafts magazine who I do commissions for - what a FAB freebie! Here's a closer look...

...I cut the 'Memories' tab out of the Fancy Pants paper collection & matt it onto kraft cardstock keeping the nice label shape...

..This beautiful Tilda is 'Tilda with Butterfly Dress' from the Butterfly Dreams '11 collection....I've coloured her with Distress Inks & added white gel pen & glitter highlights with Crystal Glamour Dust...

....Flowers are from WOC & have been distressed with white paint, lovin' these little pearl sprays at the mo - think they look great coming off the page like this & really add dimention,they look really pretty too! Also notice the pretty Doo Hickey heart swirl die...

...I cut the bunting from the patternef papers & stamped individual letters with Stampin Up alphabet stamps. I then matt each piece onto kraft card-stock, punched the holes & thread the waxed cotton through tying in a knot on either side...
