I managed to get in some crafty time this morning and as I had seen the twisted easel card around blogland this past week I wanted to give it a go. And how fun and easy it is!
I coloured up this sweet little Tilda yesterday using pinks and browns and used Bev's fabulous sketch from the Friday Sketchers challenge blog. The papers are Bo Bunny are just scrummy! I adore pink & brown together ... and whilst this can be used for a valentine card it can also be an everyday card. I'm actually sending this to a dear friend of mine whose mom has just been diagnosed with lung cancer - I hope it cheers her up and lets her know I'm thinking of her.
Here's a full view of the twisted easel card. I used a doily on the bottom panel too with a swirl and 3 cherry blossoms to act as the 'stop'. The hearts are from an MS punch and the sentiment is SU!. Ribbon, bling and doilies are from my stash. I also used the MS French Lace border punch along the middle panel. My sewing machine also got some exercise today on this card!
Here's a close up of Tilda. The copic colours used are:-
Skin: - E000, 00, 11,13,21,R20
Hair/Shoes - E25,29,30,34,35
Clothes:- R81,83,85,89
