For today's card I guess you can tell by the title of my post, I have dusted off Tilda. I have coloured her with my Distress Markers following about three different tutorials on various blogs. I think this was my fourth attempt - you should have seen the others!!
I have used Wonderful Tilda. The papers are Raspberry Road from the Josephine collection - very pretty. I have used my Sophia's Heart die again from Cheery Lynn and also the butterfly is a Cheery Lynn die which I have used on pearlised card so they have a lovely sheen. The flower and leaves are a Marianne die and the banner heart die is Whiff of Joy. I have used another hand made crochet flower and a resin flower from My Crafty Heart (very reasonably priced). The image has been cut and matted with Spellbinders. I have added some Stickles to the image and butterfly and the pearls are from my stash. The inside has been decorated to match and I have also added a birthday sentiment to the front but that was after I took the picture!!

Well I had to go see my dentist at 6:30 last night and I am now on antibiotics for a gum infection so hopefully they should start to work and I can get rid of this blasted painful mouth and jaw.
A big welcome to Nancy my newest follower! I will be back tomorrow hopefully, until then try and stay dry and take care xx
