Summer Fun with Tilda

Hello folks

I hope you are all enjoying your weekend.

The challenge this month at Crafty Little Fairies is Summer Fun and here is my card for the challenge - 

I began by using my new Spellbinder's grand decorative ovals to make a card blank. I cut the largest die in the set using white centura pearl, scored it and folded it to make the base. I then matted some brown paper from First Edition's Summer Breeze paper pad. I then cut a smaller decorative oval from another of the papers and added that to the card as shown.

The image is Bikini Tilda from Magnolia which I coloured with the following Promarkers - 

• hair - raw sienna, terracotta and henna
• skin - putty, sunkissed pink and coral
• bikini, shoes and flowers - oasis, island lagoon and turquoise
• sand - mustard and sandstone
• sky - pastel blue, blue pearl and denim blue

I cut the image out using a Spellbinder's oval nestie, inked whilst still in the die with tumbled glass distress ink and matted onto a Spellbinder's floral oval cut from another of the papers from the pad. I attached the image to the card using foam pads.

I then made lots of flowers using scraps of the papers and Tonic's petal pairs punches. I added some pearls to the centre of some of the flowers.

To finish I added some Memory Box clouds cut from white centura pearl which I attached to the card with Pinflair.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenge -
