Watering can Tilda

December already ... how'd that happen so quickly!
Hate these old dark evenings though, my camera can't cope sometimes - for some reason the white on my card has taken on a greeny tinge. I tried a few times to change the lighting in my room but it didn't really make any difference.

Gave my wee Tilda an inking for a change ... if Magnolia brought out a set of 'mouths' I definitely would buy them, she'd look so much prettier with a smile, but I don't quite trust myself to draw one on! Coloured with pencils and clear gloss/glitter added to the dots on her dress and the flowers in her hair; and then just plain gloss on her watering can and trowel.

Flowery Tilda

I started this card earlier in the week but couldn't get the enthusiasm to get it finished. Had a really tough week in work - I said bye to 2 friends who I've worked with for over 24 years and then heard that some other colleagues are facing compulsory redundancy. So it's been a very emotional few days :(

My card uses one of my unloved Tilda images ... I'm still tempted to draw in a smile LOL! I coloured her to match my pretty DP and then pulled the usual trick of covering up most of it with other papers!

Image coloured with pencils. Martha Stewart grass border punch. Dienamics Mini tab. Sentiment is an oldie from Elzybells.
