Singing Tilda Thank You cards

The Odosagih Ladies Boosters President and Secretary asked me if I would be able to make them some thank you cards with a musical theme to send to the musicians providing music for the summer meetings and the ladies spring and fall retreats.
I used so many different Copics on these cards that I can't even begin to list all of them - sorry!  
I added Diamond Dust Stickles to the dresses and used a Viva Pearl Pen Ice White for the earrings and necklaces.  I'm a little disappointed in the final appearance of the pearls though.  Perhaps it's just lack of practice.

I have finished my first Color Me Creative Copic Classes.  I can really see major improvement in my coloring, especially on the dresses!  I am very pleased.                 
 
The designer papers are from Stampin Up DP packs and My Mind's Eye Wild Asparagus paper pack.  Some of the Wild Asparagus designs are really out of my comfort zone so using them has been a challenge,
but I have been very pleased with the finished cards.
This is how I did the inside of each card.  The papers coordinated with the front and all had an oval for a handwritten thank you message.  The edges of some of the ovals were inked for a bit more contrast.

Thanks so much for taking time out of your busy day to stop by and see my cards!

Blessings and Huggeroonies,
