Swedish Girl visits Holland


I wanted to give this card a Dutch look and stamped the 'tiles' on the sides.
Behind Tilda are some Dutch houses stamps by Avec.
The cobbles and the lamp post are made by me from carved erasers.
the leafy bits behind the flowers (Kaisercraft) are from a Joy die.
Before Christmas I bought a Teresa Collins stampmaker and used it to make my own 'handmade by' stamp which is on the back. It's quite exciting to see the stamp taking shape.
I am very pleased with the way this card has turned out - hope you like it too!

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Simply Magnolia - dies and/or punches and ribbon
Just Magnolia - more than 1 fold

Thanks for looking
