Fairy Dust Tilda with handmade flowers

I just love this Tilda - when I saw her I just had to have her. I've coloured using PMs and added a little silver dust to her sparkles. I purchased some new PM colours and one of my favourites is Saffron.
I've experimented with clear embossing and Pming over the top to create some of the backgrounds (I used two Anna Griffin stamps)- I like this and I will be trying this again. I've also made my own flowers using the clear embossed paper and a flower stamp overthe top which I then cut out and folded. I PMed their outlines and glued three seed beads to the middle. The one paper I have used is Dovecraft.





I think the clear embossing gives the flowers a porcelain look which I am pleased with.

I have used Karen's lovely sketch over at Let's get Stamping and her twist - make your own flowers. Thanks Karen really enjoyed this. I am also going to enter this into the Charisma Cardz Challenge - Girly card with flowers. Go and check the DT out they are awesome.
Just realised the ECP challenge is Orange so I'm going to put Tilda in there too - as those guys rock too.
Thanks for looking and here's blowing some fairy dust your way!
