Tilda tags

This will be one of those real quick posts as i am alone AGAIN! yep my dh is off on another business trip and this time round i am having a hard time getting my head round this idea that he gets to check out from the constant demands of little ones and jet off to sleep in a hotel for a few days and sleep in if the mood stikes him, ah!!! those were the days, when i could sleep all day, lol
Ok on to my tags, they are having a tag challenge on Totally Tilda and since i just needed to do something i decided to make my three tags.  I colored my images with my warm gray copics.  Each of my images have been cut out.  I then stamped a second image and colored parts of the image in color, so that i could then punch out a section of the image and add it to the centre of another stamped magnifying glass, i added some dimensional glaze over this and voila! it actually looks magnified!


These darling little Tilda's are all available from Magnolia-licious store their number and names are listed below:
Tilda with wedding gifts:  #249, Christmas Eve Tilda  i think that this one is out of stock as i couldnt find it listed and then lastly Christmas party Tilda #3022.

    Love these tags you did.....the little areas in the magnifying glass really do look magnified. What a cool idea. Need to find a magnifying glass stamp, would love to try this myself. These tags are adorable.

    Wow Paola, what an amazing mind you have!! Am always so surprised when I look at your blog and see another creative goodie staring at me... This one is simply gorgeous.. Adore the idea of the magnifying glass. Having colored just the items inside that area does make it look magnified! A swell job you did, love. Am always so amazed with your work and this did not disappoint me... Great work..
    Hugs, Jean
