Miss You Tilda




Hi everyone and Happy Tuesday! :) I hope you are all having a wonderful day. I've got another busy day today at work so I'll make this short and sweet. It's been so long since I've inked up a Magnolia image so for my card today, I decided to ink up this adorable Tilda (I think she's called Jam Tilda and I got her at Magnolialicious -- link on my sidebar). I colored the image with copics (pinks: R81, R83, R85; skin: E00, E11, E13; hair: E33, E35, E37) and then cut the image out. I added Stardust Stickles to her hair bows for some extra sparkle. Next I created my card base out of SU cardstock (Regal Rose and Whisper White). My DP is also from SU. I used my SU ticket corner punch on all corners and added pearls. I cut the ovals out with my oval nesties and ran the top oval through my cuttlebug with my Swiss Dots embossing folder. I then adhered Tilda to the ovals with dimensionals. For some finishing touches, I added a ribbon, a bow, a heart charm, and Primas and roses from Wild Orchid Crafts. What do you think?

Well, that's it from me today. Thank you all so much for stopping by. Have a wonderful day! :)
