Hello everyone :) Two cards today, both using the Simon Says Stamp Challenge sketch.....have a look further down for the Tilda card which is the one I'm actually entering for the challenge.
First up, an Edwin image which is very appropriate for the weather we've been having in the UK, don't you think? I don't often make male cards, somehow I just don't get very inspired by them, but I had to have little Edwin make at least one appearance this Christmas. The bit I like best about this image is colouring the jeans, I find that much easier than his hooded top. The snowy backing paper is from the very first pack of paper I ever bought, back when I was a baby cardmaker, a Papermania Colossal pack. I just can't get through all this paper, I've used loads, given some away, wasted some and STILL there's a lot left. Letters and gem stars are from my stash, and the image is coloured with Copics:
C.R.A.F.T. Challenge: Christmas Birthday
Cute Card Thursday: The Blues
Magnolialicious: Letters or Word projects

Secondly, yet another Tilda card, which I'm entering into the Simon Says Stamp sketch challenge. You must be fed up of this image by now, but I just love her even though she takes a long time to colour. The papers are Papermania again, and I haven't put a sentiment on this card, I quite often don't because I like it without. The gold stars are quite chunky and glittery and I think they pick up the gold from the mirri mats.
I loved making this one, wish I could give Tilda cards to everyone.
Happy crafting!

Beautiful work again, Carole, and 2 lovely cards. Good luck with the challenges!
Need to know the name of this Tilda image, Carole! I went looking, but couldn't find her.(She might have to be added to my collection) Anyways, she's just lovely. And you're wrong - not tired of seeing her and the way you colour her yet :) Bron xx

It's true to say that I'm not very inspired by male cards either, but the Edwin on a sled is ideal. You have matched everything to perfection even down to Edwin's boot soles :)
Tilda looks fab and I just love this image. Great colours and colouring - love the matching papers. Well done.

Adorable Edward! Love the coloring and papers you used. Such a lovely card! Aloha, J:)
