Delight-ful


Okay. I admit it. I basically ignored the housework, hubby and the pets and spent the day sequestered in my craftroom to make another Tilda card.

This time I used "Happy Tilda". To me, she looked like she was jumping for joy, so what better place for a little girl to jump than on her bed? So I drew her a bed and a teddybear companion (with a ribbon bow). A bit of lace to match her PJ's trim finished off the bottom of the card. It's hard to tell by the photo, but Tilda is raised up on dimensionals too.

Copics used:

Face: E00, E11, R20
Hair: Y11, Y21, E97, E99
Clothes: BG10, BG72, BG75, BG78
Lace: C0, C2, C5
Teddy: E11, E97, E99
Bed: R20, R21, E57, E59

Background paper is "Delight Strips" by Fancypantsdesign.

The Best Things

Tilda's Kittens have a new home!

Here is the card I made for my firstest-ever Tilda stamp. I used the following Copics to colour her in:

Skin: E00, E11, R20
Hair: YR21, E35, E29, D37, W3
Dress: B60, B63, B66
Socks: G82, G85
Cats: W1, W3, W5, W7, R20
Cardboard box: E51, E55, E57

Paper is Blue Heart Buds, by Art Impressions.

I popped her up with dimensionals, restamped the kitten image for the second cat, and added clear gloss to the tape on the box too.

I cut the back off a small white plastic button and wrapped DMC floss #967 cross-stitch thread around it, gluing the back to hold it in place.

The hardest part about making this card?

Keeping my REAL cats from playing with the teenie-tiny ball of yarn.
