Happy Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!! 

Made this adorable card for a swap I am in over at SCS.  This image was from Debra - perfect for Valentine's day.  These lovely Tilda's always give my copic's a good workout.  Problem is that i have few to choose from!!  Sentiments are from Wishing You ... and Gracious Vases (both Papertrey Ink).

Off to post on SCS now!  Have a great day with lots of hugs and kisses!!

Image Swap - Imke's March Image

This is the image we recieved for an image swap I am in over on SCS.  Isn't this the cutest little thing!!  Imke also sent the little sun charm with the images to make the challenge even more fun!!

I decided to color this gal in using my new Copic markers.  That was a ton of fun.  I started with her yellow hair and then decided to go with purple!  The addition of the ginham paper was required as I love it so much!  I added some yummy blue sparkles to her wings!! 

You can check out all the other creations at our March Gallery.

Thanks for dropping by. 

Just so you know, my life is a bit crazy these days at work.  I hope to get back to posting more regularly but it might be another few weeks before that can happen.  Thanks for understanding.

Monthly Image Challenge Swap - Linda's Image - Feb

Well, Linda and I are at it again and this time we have invited a bunch of friends!!  Linda mailed this adorable Tilda image out to all of us and then we created our own version of the cards.  I was able to take a peek at some of the others' cards and decided that I wanted to create something really different from everything  that the other very talented ladies had done. 

Here is my first card.  I colored it using my Prisma Pencilcolors.  And I attempted to make it a SEPIA colored card.   And then, I decided to go with my clean and simple style!  I was tempted to add some of those lovely flowers like everyone else did ... but I am sure that mine would pale in comparison so I just added some lace along the bottom and a small thin strip of satin ribbon. 

Here's a little close up of the coloring.  Remember you can click on the image to make it a bit bigger if you'd like.  








And of course I couldn't just stop there ... I had to create a second card (thank goodness Linda sent a few images!).  This time, I created a card that is a bit more typically "Tilda" :-)

I colored this Tilda with my Copic markers (I have so few so I just make do with what I have!).   I wanted this Tilda to look like she was peeking out, so I cut it down and added a piece of this seam binding ribbon.  Last night I spritzed it with some Gimmer Mist (Tattered Angels) in Electric Blue and Shimmer Silver and then squanched it all up to dry!! 

The rest of the card is pretty straight forward! 

Well, there you have it!!  If you are interested in seeing everyone's final cards you can go HERE where they are all together!  This is so much fun.  And the best part is that we are doing it again ... every month for the next year!!  Can't wait to recieve my next image so we can see how different everyone's card ends up!!!

Thanks for dropping in!  Have a great rest of your weekend!

Sunshine Tilda

My blogging friend Chris sent me some Tilda's a while ago. Then, I bought this background stamp from her (she had purchased an duplicate by mistake and I was happy to take it off her hands!!). I figured I would put the two together. I had created this fun ribbon sun a while ago and decided that this little Tilda would be laying in the sunshink thinking of you!! This little card went to my sweet little neice who is just adorable...and would look just like this little gal except she has the sweetest blond hair!! Have a wonderful sunshiny day! Donelda
