Tilda in Yellow



Yellow is my favorite color and the first challenge at Let's Ink It Up is to use yellow. I don't like bright sun shiney yellow but I prefer light yellow. I find it is a very relaxing, yet cheerful color. And doesn't Tilda look pretty in her yellow dress? I made two cards with the same papers, stamp and embellishments but I think I like the shaped card the best. All the pattern papers are from Basic Grey and are simpy gorgeous!
Card Details:
Stamp: from the Magnolia Stamps Fairytale collection
Copics: E00, E21, E50, E53, E34, E57, YR 31, Y21,
Mats: Cricut Songbird cartridge cut at 3, 4 and 4.25 inches
Corner leaves: Storybook Cricut cart cut at 2.25 inches
Martha Stewart branch punch

OMG I just love this shaped card. I have a cricut expressions and am embarrassed to admit that I have only used it once. :( I think I definitely need to get it out and start using it. Your coloring is wonderful and the DP's are truly gorgeous. Yellow is my fav color too, but I love all shades.

I love the card you made, you did such a good job. I really like the shape you used. I've got to get out of my rectangular card box. Longing Tilda is one of my favorites and I love how you did her in yellow. Beautiful!
