Long Time No Tilda

I've not used a Magnolia Tilda image for what seems like ages, so I've ended her hibernation with today's card, which uses one of my favourite Magnolia images.

She's been water-colour painted with DI reinkers, and boy did I find that hair difficult!  I spent at least an hour just on her locks!  But by the end of it I was quite pleased with the finished result.

She's for a colleague's birthday which is in a fortnight's time.  I just hope she likes pink!

I think even if you didn't like pink (as if!) you would still love this card as it's so beautiful :-)
The layout is fabulous and your colouring is utterly stunning - the hair is amazing but so is the rest of it... those dress folds... just wow!

Big hugs, Kat xx
