Happy Wednesday Everyone!!
I think this is my most favorite Tilda EVER!! Her name is Tilda With Balloon, and she's part of the adorable Magnolia - So Special Collection. I just love her hair and the shy little tilt of her head...pure sweetness!! You can purchase yours online at 7 Kids College Fund who also has the NEW Rainbow Collection on pre-order!! Have you seen it?!?! OMGosh!! This Rainbow Collection just may be CUTEST yet!!
And can you believe it?!?! I actually managed to color a shade of blonde that I LOVE!! If you've followed my blog for awhile then you will know that I never color hair blonde because I can never seem to find THE right blonde. All of my blonde attempts end up brunettes. :) And in case anyone is curious, let me share with you the insane amount of Copic's I used... E50, E41, E31, YR31, Y26, E34 and a touch of YR20. See? Told ya it was insane!! LOL
This is also my first card with a banner and I'm not sure how I feel about it yet. I of course LOVE everyone else's cards with banners, and HAD to have a banner die to try it myself. I found it very difficult to incorporate it into the layout and could only manage to fit 3 pennants even though the card size is a 5 1/2" square. I spent an embarrassing amount of time fiddling with the arrangement until I felt like it didn't look awkward. But I was determined to include a banner on THIS card!! LOL So hopefully I managed to make it work design wise.

Gorgeous coloring Wendy! Just ordered a banner die myself cause they are so cute, I think yours works well so don't fret. Hope Christine loves it!
I need this stamp! What a fabby card, super colouring as ever and more scrummy ruched ribbon. Tried the other night and was on the verge of tears when I gave up as mine looked naff!
I don't think I can say enough how fabulous the coloring is on this!! I am floored, it looks sooooo nice! Also, all those copics for the hair color were worth it too, it is a great shade of Blonde! WTG!

Hi Wendy, wow what a great card, and you're soooo good with those Copics! I'm still trying to master the art of Copics but I must admit that I find it pretty difficult!! Hugs, Frea

Oh my goodness, Wendy, this is gorgeous! What a beautiful card!
Beautiful card! Thanks for joining us at SSCC! : )
That's my one and only Maglnolia Stamp that own......your fault. I am afraid to check out that Rainbow Collection. I'm sure I will see them on your cards soon enough. I love your banner! I bought the PTI banner set and still have yet to use it. I'm afraid of it for some reason. Looks great on your card and I love that ribbon, too!
Oh my my myyyyyy is that ever PRETTY! Maybe it was a lot of Copics for the blonde, but hey, it WORKS, girlie! Thanks so much for sharing those, too...I'm always struggling to find the right blondes as well so I usually end up coloring brunette instead. I LOVE your deep teal colors on her dress, too. Care to share those colors?
THUD!!! that was my head hitting the keyboard! This is a totally stunning card! Your coloring is nothing short of amazing. So honored to have you joining us at Paper and Such for our first challenge.
Your card is wonderful, I like how you used the banner it turned out terrific. Great coloring and I can't wait to get my new Magnolias to play with!
Oh wow, what a beautiful card! Love the image and your colouring is FAB. Gorgeous papers and love all your details too :o) Lisa x
OMGOSH Wendy!! I love how you have coloured up Tilda, those folds looks amazing!! I love everything about your card, thanks so much for sharing it with us at MDUC this week:-)

I like the scalloping on the top of the pennants & the way that colour & texture picks up on the ruffled ribbon across the card - besides which the scallops echo the bottom of her dress. Love the hair colour too.

VERY Luscious!!! I love the color you chose for the dress. WOW! Hugs.
This is totally gorgeous Wendy! Your colouring is stunning! I struggled to include a banner the way I thought it should be too... yours looks perfect though!

Wendy, this is absolutely GORGEOUS! I love the colors you used, especially that deep teal. And her blonde hair ... it's perfect. The banner looks just right.
This is lovely, Wendy! Your banner is fabulous and looks like it is meant to be on your card. I can't imagine it any other way.
Little Tilda is precious. I love her fallen socks. They just add to her sweetness!
