Tilda in the Pink

The camera has done its best job to make poor Tilda look wishy washy and made the sparkling butterflies look grey and moth like.
I followed the sketch on Cute Card Thursday and for a change I used some flowers out of my stash. The papers are Prima and of course the border is deep edge doily punch from Martha Stewart.I cheekily added a friend sentiment so I can enter the Just Magnolia challenge.
I can't say I had the greatest time at the Glitter Pot since I brought Mr Grumpy version 2 (BIL is version 1) and DD came along too but she was suffering from the night before and it kind of kept the sparkle out of the visit.
Waved to Jenny from Hobby Art she was surrounded the whole time there, Jane Gill was making the amazing flowers and there was a loving arty lady (sorry forgotten name) that had lovely grungy Art.
There was a lady making cards with the Wild Rose stamps and I picked one of them up, thought they were a very good size.
It didn't look like I brought much but it still came to my limit. I brought another Echo Park paper Kit My boy this time to use for scrapbooking not card making and some plain card sheet. To begin with I wasn't keen on Mimi from Penny Black but shes starting to grow on me so I brought one. Two packs of 6in paper, dinky leaf punch that might be too dinky, non-stick scissors and a memento inkpad and quickly grabbed a Hedgie to make my limit.
Back home by 1 just in time for the Monaco Grand Prix and for DD to have a nap!

Hi Debby , thank you for your lovely reaction on my blog. Your card is so beautiful....I like the papers and the colours. Beautiful colouring too. Your images look so 3d....how do you do that ? I mean with the shadow ?? It looks great. Love from Holland , Christa.

Marion said...

Hi Debby, Gorgeous card and I have my eye on that cute Tilda. Love the colour combo and delish papers. Like that embossing on the mat behind Tilda. Is it a cuttlebug folder?
Sorry you didn't enjoy your visit to Glitter Pot as much as you would have liked. Still managed to get a few goodies though.
Hope you are enjoying the BH Monday.
hugs
Marion

Vicki said...

Hiya Debby, your card is gorgeous, as always, beautiful choice of colours and it's so summery and cheeful.

I know what you mean about photos though. I've just started using the free photo editing suite Picnik and it's brill, so easy to navigate. I've put the results on my blog today, coincidentally. I usually use Paint Shop Pro but Picnik is far better. luv 'n' hugs xx vicki xx

Kathleen said...

I think we must have the same camera, one with a mind of it's own.
But it doesn't look wishi-washi to me but not seen original. Really lovely card, lovely the papers and all the embellies.

More lovely makes, Debby. I like The Glitter Pot too although when I go, Julie has to take me because I won't drive that far. Sounds like you had a great time in spite of Mr Grumpy and I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with with your new stash. It's always such a pleasure to drop by! Hugs, Lesley
