Midsummer Tilda…

Pam Sparks36 Comments

Midsummer Tilda is from the Fairytale collection…just love the flowers in her hair and the way it waves.  Fun to color…trying distress ink coloring again…not sure why ‘cept that it’s a challenge! lol  I made this for the Just Magnolia Challenge blog,  a sketch this week. Love the simplicity of it too!

♥ Tilda is stamped with ♥ Versafine Onyx Black ink on ♥ hot press Arches watercolor paper (comes in a big sheet).  Then painted/colored in with ♥ Distress Inks. The papers are from ♥ K&Company… ♥ card-stock is prism and via…the cool paper ribbon is from a pack of ♥ Capella Basic Grey ribbon doilies…pretty cool stuff (purchased it at Archivers).  I put ♥ Martha Stewart ribbon  through the ribbon doily after I inked it good with ♥ walnut stain distress ink.  All the edges of everything are edged with  ♥ Walnut Stain distress ink and the ♥ Ink Blending Tool.  The ovals are die cut with ♥ oval Nestabilities dies. Can’t do words without using the ♥♥♥ Stamp a ma jig,  I ♥ that thing!!!  Tutorial on using it in my post right before this one.  “Thank You is a Hero Arts stamp D4903.

Happy National Scrapbooking Day!  I can say I used some scrapbooking paper today anyway!  And took some pictures!  Doesn’t matter that it was just of a card! lol

Once upon a time…well NOW…we can pre-order the new Fairytale collection from 7KidsCollegeFund.com !   Here’s Prince Edwin!!!  SOOOOO CUTE! Very cool new castle background too!!!

I’m headed to an ATC in person swap this a.m. so I started coloring this Tilda last night and finished her up this a.m.  This card is 2.5 in. x 3.5 in. big is all…I’ve been creating artist trading cards since July of 2005.  There are some links to my other atc’s in the sidebar.

I used this Fairy Tale Tilda, inked with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Copic Markers (dress V90’s) (skin E000, 00, 01, 21, R20),   sentiment is from the collection also.  Martha Stewart Flower Shower border punch, Frosted Lace Stickles (can you tell it’s still not dry?!) lol  I edged everything with Black Soot Distress ink and the Ink blending tool.

Happy Saturday to you!  Happy Tilda and Edwin shopping!
