Tilda Easel Card

Good evening Blogland

It's taken me most of the afternoon to make this easel card. Have been interrupted several times fron my son, wanting snacks and sandwiches. Will be glad when he can feed himself, he is only EIGHTEEN lol.
Anyhow, here she is, such a cutie don't you think? She has to be one of my all time favouties and she's so lovely to colour. Used some paper that I bought from Gill at the Hobby House when she was at the Papercraft show recently at the Doncaster Dome. She has so much gorgeous stuff - spent a fortune!!

I have coloured Tilda with Polychromo pencils (my favouite colouring medium) and glitzed her up with Stickles, well a card is not fisnished without Stickles!

The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and although I have boxes of them isn't it always the case that you just don't have the right colour lol. All the blue flowers that I have were just not the right shade, so, I have coloured some white roses with Aqua Pro Markers - worked a treat.


Unitl next time - au revoir mes amis
