Happy New Year


Happy New Year everyone.
Yes! I know I am a little late. I have had a computer crash and it has taken me since before New years eve to fix it.
Here is my wrapped Tilda that I was able to finally put on.
I coloured her with Prismacolor premier pencils and odorless spirits. I have put her on Spellbinders scalloped oval and the plain oval. The flowers are ones I have made and the leaves I punched from the maple leaves punch and coloured them to look like Ivy. Then I added Faux brads that I copied from Patti Jo's card. I thought that was a great idea. I haven't made them before. Hope you like it. My colouring is still being worked on.
Hugs Marion
