Tlida with Apron....



I was visiting Marlene's blog A Lil' bit of Me. Where she showed a challenge she had done for My Paper World. It's a super cute card, so hop over and take a look. Well I thought I'd try the challenge myself, so here it is. This also my Cute Card Thursday card.

I love these magnolia stamps they are so cute and great for coloring. This one is Tilda w/Apron. I first stamped Tilda and then masked her to stamp the bench and grass. I colored it with my Prisma pencils and OMS. I also decided that I needed to pick out the paper before I started to color from now on so that they matched. And it worked great. I started with the lite blue paper by Basic Grey and then picked pencils to match. I actually made up a bunch of cards today that I had colored images for all week. This week every night after work was a sit and watch TV and relax night for me. I just needed to unwind. So I got quite a few colored. Although it takes me a while to color my images it's definitely not instant for me.

So I hope your enjoying your weekend....
