Two Tilda Cards


Hello my lovelies!
I have 2 cards to share with you today. I colored both images with Copic Sketch Markers.  My favorite ink pad for coloring with Distress Markers just run dry and I can't find another pad to replace it. It's an old ink pad and it is no longer available. So it's a bit frustrating not having the ink pad I'm comfortable coloring with.  Oh well... but I'm glad I have my Copics to play with.

My first card features New Year Sakura Tilda from the Winter Wonderland Collection. And the second card features Tilda Hiding Rose Bouquet from the Lost and Found Collection. For both cards, I used A2 size card base.

I tried to keep the cards simple and flat for easy mailing  but for the first card, I couldn't help but add some Wild Orchid Craft flowers. The second card fits really well inside a A2 sized envelop even with the button on top.

Sagittarius Tilda

Hello Everyone!
I hope your week has started out great! 
Today, I'm sharing with a 6x6 layout I made. It has some magnets on the back so it can be displayed on the refrigerator door or any place magnetic. I used Sagittarius Tilda from the Zodiac Collection
Colored with DIs and I used some Winks of Stella for the flower on her hair. I used a different WC paper here so I was trying to adjust the blending and water on my brush.

OK, our refrigerator door is full so for the mean time, I'm hanging this on my desk cubies...while it waits for home!

Thank you for stopping by today and I hope to see you again soon!

Virgo Tilda


It's a warm and sunny day here in Chicago and I am loving it! But as I look at the weather forecast for this week, it says we will have snow on Wednesday...Ugh! I'm soooo ready for Spring!

My card for today features Virgo Tilda from the Zodiac Collection.
She is one of my favorites from this collection as you can use her for several different cards/occasions. I tried to keep my embellishments to a minimum so the details on the Maja Design Paper can be seen. I used



Colored with Distress Ink Reinkers. I'm trying our a new ink pad because my favorite one is running dry. I am still trying to get used the to way the ink reacts to the Distress Ink reinkers and water.
I try to make a comparison (hopefully in a video form) soon.



I kept the inside simple and blank so it can be personalized.


Here's another look at my card.


The Zodiac Collection is now available in most stockists.


Have a wonderful day and I hope to see you again soon!
