Hello and happy Friday! I hope you've had a good week. I've been in a bit of a card-making funk lately.... I have had no mojo whatsoever! Sad, but true!
I am involved in a monthly card challenge with a group of ladies at SCS, where the challenge is to use the same image to make a card. This month our image came from Linda; Tilda is stamped on the prettiest shimmery carstock. Isn't she sweet? I must confess to having a fear of coloring Tildas, so this is the first card I have ever posted using one. I guess this challenge was good for getting me out of my funk, because I didn't want to flake and disappoint my friends!
Image: Magnolia
Ink: Sakura Black Gel Pen
Paper: PTI Kraft, SU! Marina Mist, My Mind's Eye "Abbey Road" DP
Embellies: SU! Marina Mist Grosgrain Ribbon, PTI Button/Twine/Felt
Extras: Prismas/Crayolas/Goo Gone, The Cat's Pajamas Cut-Ups Die, PTI Doily Die, EK Success 3D Dots
I am happy with the way this card turned out. I had the "bright" idea of shading around Tilda with pink; after I started I thought "oh no!" but I kept going and just rolled with it. In the end, I think it looks okay. It was a fun challenge; I can't wait to see our image for March!
Thanks for stopping by! Enjoy your weekend!

Angela, you did a fabulous job of coloring Tilda. She is beautiful and so is your card. Love the colors you chose and the felt flower.

ReplyDeleteIn a funk eh? I wondered where you'd been! Your mojo must be back cause this card is gorgeous--amazing coloring!
ReplyDeleteYes, the pink around her does look GREAT!!!! I love it! and I love everything about it. A balance between CAS and layered. I am not a Tilda gal either but this was a ton of fun!! I am so glad you played along :-)
ReplyDeleteAngela I love the card, I like that you went around Tilda with the pink, I would have never went out of my comfort zone of the grey! It is great!!!!
ReplyDeleteAngela, i like your color choice. So cheerful colors. The doily looks great and the felt flower fits perfect !
ReplyDeleteAngela, your card is perfect! I really like the pink shading and your color scheme really works with this Tilda!
ReplyDeleteI hafta say ... I would NEVER have thought to shade with pink but ya know, it TOTALLY works! It subtly brings in the shades from your DP. You are BACK girly!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Your coloring looks amazing, and I love the pink shadow, so pretty. I had no idea you had a fear of coloring Magnolias, you shouldn't because your coloring is always GREAT!
