Two Projects today!

I don't usually do double posts but this is a busy week! Lots to make and show so I'm glad you came by! If you started here and don't want to miss anything you may want to visit our excellent Suzanne's blog now. If you've arrived from the superior Sharon you're doing great! I'm at the end of the hop so feel free to check out the link to Diana's wonderful store on my sidebar! Our Design Team blog hop today is to feature some pop up cards we've made! So here is mine. It is called a Spring Card and the directions (easy!) are in the Resources section at SCS! I've seen so many terrific cards made with Tilda with bow and I had to get in the act with Spring colors! My lavendar colors are BV000 and BV02 with a little darker lavendar that I can't remember right now. The pinks are R81 and R83. Her sleeves are YR000 and YR21. Her hair is E33, YR21 and E25.
This second card is for the Copic Creations challenge. This time we are sponsored by DZDoodles digital images and I love my basket of eggs! I have quite a number of birdhouses, nest and eggs that I decorate with in the spring. My favorites are actually the "natural" ones so that's the look I went for. I used the nasty rag on my eggs and added some dots for the look I wanted. But, our challenge is...


to color embellishments! Yep, with our copics! I colored some PTI twill ribbon (it was cream). I also colored the blue buttons and even the twine in the white button. They are all colored with BG72 and the buttons have a mottled apearance like the egg. The sketch is a MoJo Monday one.
This card says Spring to me and it could be for Easter, too!
I will have a few more pictures of this card tomorrow with our Mo's digital Pencil blog hop! We are celebrating 1000+ members on PCP and I don't think you'll want to miss the event!
If you have any questions about these cards, please don't hesitate to ask!
Have a great day! I will-it's our Winter Break from school!
Cheryl
Forgot to add, YES, I will be giving SOMETHING away. Not sure what, but definitely a Maggie card and a Maggie stamp!
Just leave a comment! I love,love,love reading them! Maybe youi can tell me the weather where you are today! (We're weather buffs here!) THANKS!

Autumn Wishes Tilda

Hi all! Wow! I'm thrilled to have had so many visitors yesterday! Thanks for all the sweet comments! If you asked a question I will get back to you, I promise! You can still comment on yesterday's Accessory post to win the card and some other "stuff" until Friday night, November 20.
I promised a Tilda today and this is she! My card base is chocolate. The dp is a foil sheet from K & co and then some of the Cosmo Cricket Nutmeg that has a wood grain. Tilda and the sentiment are on dimensionals.
The Autumn wishes sentiment and the log are also from Magnolia-licious. I see that the log is available now. I think I'd like to do a seasonal set with a using this layout but with a different Tilda on the log for each season! I can just see one of the Winter Tildas now!
I've used one of my ovals for behind Tilda, kind of like a harvest moon, I think! I cut the oval and leave it in the nestability. Then I use a 1" stencil brush to add color to the edges. If your pad is really "inky" just dust it off on some scrap paper to keep the color light and soft.
Tilda is colored with my copics and I was thrilled with the color I got on the oak leaves!
the colors I used are;
R17, YR18, E08 and R59 for the leaves with some R0000 for blending
Y21, Y17, Y38 and YR04 for the mums
Yg91, Yg95, YG99 for the greens
E43, E25, E47 and E50 for blending her suede boots
Y21, E99, E32 for her hair
W1- W3, W5 for her top
and the usual E000, E93 and E01 for her face. I added a tiny bit of E43 and blended like crazy for a darker look on her forehead.
I didn't keep track of the shades of E for the log. Sorry.
Well, there's still more to come this week with an Angel's Landing blog hop and release tomorrow and a Mo's Digital Pencil blog hop on Thursday. Our theme is Precipitation Inspiration and for once my card is already done!
thanks for visiting!
