Another Card So Soon...

something must be wrong with me!??  Well no I've decided I need to at least try to make a card a day.  Also it helps that the DVD-watching kick I've been on lately has been shifted into my craft space so I can multi-task.  Anyway here is the next creation.  I'm entering it into Cute Card Thursday no 154 - Signs of Spring, Wild Orchid no 18- Anything Goes, Die Cut Dreams no 84 - Spring Garden, Bling It On launch - Anything Goes, Sentimental Sundays no 44 - Anything Goes, Just Magnolia no 96 - Anything Goes, Papertake Weekly - Anything Goes and Totally Tilda no 17 - Fruity Tilda.





Card deets:  Tilda with Cherry Wellies (may not be the real name! LOL let me know what it is if you DO know, thanks) is coloured with Copics and cut out to sit on Tilda's watering can (also coloured with Copics).  The paper flowers (Bazill Bitty Bag) are layered and attached with pearl topped brads.  The tab is shaded with Weathered Wood distress ink and stamped with Elzybell's Everyday Greetings in Tuxedo Black (same as Tilda).  The papers are from Magnolia's "A little yummy for your tummy" line and called Blueberries and Blueberry Dot.  I also used some plain dark clue card edged with the Crown Martha Stewart punch.  Can image cut with large circle Nesties.  Card measures 5.5 inches each side.  I also added some Diamond Stickles to the flowers and Sakura Gelly Roll for some cheek sparkle.  Having seen the photo I'm going to go over Tilda's face again with the Copics as it doesn't look blended too well.  Will take another photo and add that if I can get it looking better. (NEW PIC ADDED!!)
Copics used: E33/35/37 - hair and butterfly body, E53 - skin, B97 for her top and the "cherries" which are now blueberries!  R20 for the blush, RV23 for the edge of the butterfly and flower centres, YG63/ BG93/YG67 for the grass, leaves and her dress. C1/3/5 for the watering can, parts of her top and tights.
Anyhoo let me know what you think.  Thanks peeps
Hugs
