Tilda With Wrapped Heart in Pastels

When the topic of Pastels was announced at Sweet Stampin' for this week's challenge, I was happy. This is Tilda With Wrapped Heart. She has been colored With Copics and then mounted on two ovals. I then mounted her on this beautiful die from Cheery Lynn. The paper on the left side of the pictures is my own personally made designer paper. I couldn't find a paper to match the green and white paper on the right so I made it. I took a very small Stampin' Up stamp that had a heart flower and some leaves/grass, and a Stamp By Judith of 3 little dots. I stamped them on cream colored paper with light green ink and then colored in the heads of the flowers with pink markers.


The bottom embellishment is a piece of fabric embroidery, with a pleated ribbon on top of it and then a string of pearls attached on top of that.  I also used a QuiKutz corner and a Stampin'-up sentiment.



Tilda is colored in Copics and mounted on two ovals and a Cheery Lynn Die. The flowers are a combination of Wild Orchid Flowers and Prima and the leaves die is by Martha Stewart.

    Your card is stunning... but unfortunately, as I can't see anything that can fly... is not able to be considered in the 'Let's Fly Away' challenge at In The Pink. If I'm wrong.. please let me know.

    Hope to see you enter again soon..
