Glittering Tilda in Plum for Xmas

I am using a new Glittering Tilda from the Sweet Christmas Dreams Collection. She is so easy to color and to be creative with so I am having fun with her a bit.  I put the big Santa Hat on her from the same collection.  It is a big hat to fill.

I invested in more Copic markers and they are very saturated in ink so blending was interesting for me.  

skin: E0000, E00, E21, R20

Hair: E23, E33, E35, E53

Apron: W00, W1, W5

Tinsel: Y21

Dress: RV63, RV66, RV69

 The Big Santa Hat has Bakers Twine tied into a ribbon from Jillebean

The inside I wanted to look like a present and the middle is a snowflake made by my Cricut, (I bet you know the cartridge) LOL and then a swirl of Melissa Frances crepe paper garland.

I used the new swirl too-hickey and some snow as well as my favorite paper this year, Magnolia Sweet Dream Collection, PLUM.

I went to a moving sale and bought a industrial juicer and meat slicer for very little money, they were only used one time.  We made Apple, orange and lemon juice this morning.  I made apple cider with the apple juice and a little pulp. Then simmered it with Sonoma cider mullings.

Next is slicing beef for Beef Jerky.  I do not use pre-mixed jerky mix, I have my own recipes but to have thin sliced meat will be a lot better for dehydrating.

Thank you for stopping by today! Happy Crafting.
