Anyway, here is Tilda with her wreath ready to decorate for Christmas! I love that pink, blue and green can be Christmas colors! I wanted to use some of the new My Mind's Eye Christmas paper so that's how I started, but it just didn't work for this. I'll hoard it a little longer, something will come to me!
My card base is Papertrey Ink's cream color. I score just the front to make the main panel 4.25 " square. The layers are Baja Breeze and Pink Pirohette. The layer behind Tilda is dp from a Basic Grey pad. The dotted layer is a scrap from Bo Bunny's dotted line. Ribbon is from Papertrey. Of course, I added lots of stickles! I love to make this type of "hinge" card, because it gives you a nice square area to work with and that great side piece. I don't think I've ever made one with the hinge at the top, and I like it!
As I finished this card I wondered how it would look if it were more distressed with a tan ink to make it look vintage. I hope I get time to try it soon!
Here are my copic colors:
Face: E00, E02, R20
Dress, hat, mittens: B10, BG72
Wreath: YG03, YG95
Ribbon: RV10, R20, R81
Boots, hair: E31, E35
Berries: R46
I added a VERY light brown to the fur areas, raw silk, I think (not sure of the number)
Hope you like it! I love reading your comments! Off to get ready for work!
Have a great day!

What a great card - I love how you've used different colours rather than the traditional red & green! Your colouring is awesome and such a cute Tilda too!

Cheryl, this is adorable!! I seem to be most creative in the morning as well, but I'm working a lot lately so that's definitely cutting into my play time :) By the time I get home, & can play after my kids go to bed, I'm just too tired!!! I envy these women who don't seem to need sleep, lol!
Adorable card, Cheryl!! I can't wait to get some Copics, myself. BTW, I can tell you how to move your pictures for future reference. :) You can email me through my blog here (The email link is in my profile, I think)

Hi Cheryl,
I LOVE your card. The colours are so nice. Your colouring is great I can hardly wait to get my Magnolia Copic colours!
Love your Merry Tilda! You always dress her up so nicely! I am a zombie in the morning and I get my energy in the evening when I should be sleeping! I can and have stayed up until 3:00 a.m.! My mom's like that too, so I think it's genetic!
