Easter Tilda

Hello and a very happy Wednesday to you all.

Once again we are off out today to enjoy the sunshine so this is a scheduled post.

The challenge at MDUC is to use this sketch with an optional Easter theme and when I saw this stamp I knew I had to use it -
And so here is my interpretation of the sketch -
I used a 6 inch card blank and some papers from LOTV's Shabby shack paper pad to recreate the sketch. I used ribbons from my stash to create the two borders and the bow.
The image is Tilda Decorate Easter and has been coloured with the following Promarkers -
  • skin - satin, blush, dusky pink and coral
  • hair - raw sienna, terracotta and chestnut
  • daffodil - tulip yellow, sunflower, gold, bright orange, orange, mandarin, lush green, pine, holly, tan, cinnamon and cocoa
  • clothes - powder blue, cornflower and petrol blue
  • soil - henna and walnut
  • sky - pastel blue and denim blue
I cut the image out using Spellbinder's stately circles and inked whilst still in the die with tumbled glass distress ink. I then sprinkled the topper with some shabby blue frantage and attached the topper to the card with foam pads.
To finish I made some flowers using Tonic's petal pairs punches, added some pearls (from the Ribbon Girl) to the centres and added them to the card as shown -
I would like to enter this card into the following challenge -
