We are half way thru the week!!! I had so much fun making this card, as I used my favorite colors and my Tilda stamp. They are the sweetest stamps. I have been taking one of the CMC online copic classes and Suzanne Dean colors from dark to light with her copics. I have always colored light to dark. But her reasons certainly make sense. So I practiced my technique on this card coloring dark to light. It worked!!
My image is Magnolia, Fairytale Tilda. I found a sketch over at Simply Magnolia (link below) and I was set to go! When I started making this card, I was not sure what I would do with it, but once I finished, I knew exactly who would receive it. I can't tell you yet, she may be peeking at my blog between now and when she receives the card. Shhhh...
I have no idea who the paper is by, but I started out with the paisley white paper with green and pink and picked my others from there. I added some lace and pearls. After I colored the image, I used B93 to airbrush around the image. The image is colored on cryogen paper. The inside is done with the same layout as the front to bring it all together. I did not stamp my sentiment because if I do, it will give it away.
