The Doll's Festival - HINAMATSURI


Hi friends, Happy Friday! We have the Hinamatsuri(the Doll’s Festival )on 3rd of March in Japan. It’s also known as the Girl’s festival. It’s the traditional Japanese festival held to wish girls both good health and growth. Most families that have girls celebrate by displaying a set of beautifully dressed dolls.





Today I'd like to show you a card I made with this darling image Magnolia's Japanese Tilda. I've also used Washi (Traditional Japanese papers) and Mizuhiki. Mizuhiki is decorative Japanese cord made from twisted paper and silk.




I have coloured the gorgeous image with Distress Markers & Distress ink pads and added stickles to flowers.

These flowers and leafs are die cut using Magnolia's DooHickey's Dies and Die-namics Dies.

Medium - Distress Markers, DI Pads
Dies - DooHickey's Dies  Rose leaf /  Leaf & Swirl, Die-namics DM165 Botanical Beauty / DM056 Rolled Daisy / DM005 Butterflies , Cheery Lynn Designs Lace Corner Deco E

I'm entering this into the following challenges:
