Here is my card for this week.
It looks a little plain to me. Any suggestions to "dress it up a bit" would be appreciated.
The vintage coloring of Tilda is the first time I have tried this technique. I watched Suzanne Dean's Copic class video and this is my "practice" image.
Here is the open view.
I find that I really like using flowers or some decorative element to stand the easel upright.
All the cardstock is from Stampin' Up! Chocolate Chip, Crumb Cake, Close to Cocoa (retired), Creamy Caramel (retired), and Naturals Ivory.
The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts. The image was colored with Copics. The die cuts were done using Spellbinders Petite Ovals and Petite Scalloped Ovals. The ribbon is from my stash.
And for a close up of Tilda.
Thanks for stopping by and spending some time with me!!
I am entering this card in the following challenges:
Tilda's Town Challenge - Vintage
Inventory Reduction Challenge - Monochromatic

Hi Kathy!
Your card is colored beautifully. I love that shade of brown. To me less is best. I prefer the stamp to be the main focus and you have achieved just that.
Hugs Maz

She is colored perfectly! I love the sepia and brown you used.
You do monochromatic beautifully. I plan on catching up on my Inventory Challenge cards and posting all of them even though it is WAY late. Family emergency and out of town trip. Borrowed computer. You get the jest of it. I love the browns that you went with. Your a very talented artist! Elle
