Just Walking On Sunshine...

Edited To Add: My paper bag won Top 5 at Tilda's Town Challenge!

Hello my Maggie friends! It's time for a new challenge over at IAMC. Our theme this week is to decorate a paper bag using Tilda and/or Edwin of course! I've colored my beautiful Waterlily Tilda inspired by my talented friend Wendy. She combined canvas and Copics and the result is stunning. I just LOVE the look of my sweet Tilda stamped on canvas! 


The gorgeous aqua blue background paper is Bo Bunny, I've also used Melissa Frances and My Mind's Eye pattern papers.


The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and two epoxy stamp stickers from K&Company.


❤❤❤


I die cut my little butterfly with Magnolia's Doohickey Swirl Butterfly and decorated it with Tim Holtz's  metal arrow.


The cloud is also Magnolia's Doohickey cutting die and the sentiment stamp from the $1.00 rack at my local craft store. LOL.


To color my sweet Tilda on canvas I used my Copic markers but I used considerably less ink compared to what I normally use to color on paper.  Skin: E11, E00, E000 and R20. Hair: E57, E33 and E31. Dress and Hair Bow: BG18, BG13 and BG11. Water: B00 and B000. Pink: R22, R20 and R00.


I would like to enter these challenges:

Midweek Magnolias: Romantic and Chic
Tilda's Town: Water Fun
Magnolia-licious: Photo Inspiration

Thanks for visiting!
Hugs,

Teddy Bo Happy Birthday Card

Edited To Add: My Bo Birthday  card won Top 3 and GDT at ABC challenge!

Hello friends! It has been quite a while since I colored one of these gorgeous Teddy Bo images. I had lots of fun coloring Birthday Bo for this card I'm sharing today. I wanted to use bright and bold colors to celebrate Jacob's first birthday.


I really wanted to keep this card clean and simple to highlight my main image. The papers are DCWV, All About Boys collection.


I found this mini bingo cards from Jenni Bowlin Studio at the Scrapbook EXPO last year. Isn't this one so perfect for my card? The cute little buttons are from my local craft store.


❤❤❤


I colored Birthday Bo with my Copics. Fur: E37, E35, E31 and E50. Blues: B29, B26, B24 and B21. Apron:YR18, YR15, YR12 and YR00. Chocolate frosting: E59, E57, E53 and E50. Greens: YG17, YG13 and YG11. Shadows: C5, C3 and C1.
