A Spoonfull of Sugar Challenge

I have got my days all muddled thats what happens when you only have 1 brain cell :( and very nearly didn’t post this card thinking it was Monday today,  thank goodness I realised in time that it is time for A Spoonfull of Sugar Challenge we have an awesome sketch for you this week by our own talented Paola.

 

Lots of pictures with this one.  I have used one of last years Tilda images and coloured her with Copics and Prismas as usual , The paper is from Magnolia as is the sentiment.

Copics Used:

Flesh: E21, E00, E000, E0000

Hair: E49, E39, E17, E13, E11

Dress: BG10, BG11

Flowers: RV000, R81, R83

Leaves YG91

and lots and lots of  Glamour dust has been added.

OMG when I had completed this card I went on a little blog hop and found that Bev had almost the same idea as me on how to use the Magnolia Doo Hickey  flower dies from Crafts U Love, I will be using them a lot more I just love them, I have distressed the edges with Tumbled Glass Distress Inks from Crafters Companion then used Diamond Stickles around the edges, I also used the New Doo Hickey Leave Steam die, the gorgeous Rose, Cherry Blossom and Rose Buds are from Wild Orchid Crafts.

Here is a closer view of the bottom of the card and finally a close up of the image
