Tilda in the meadow Easel card





  • The inspiration for this card is from a photo a friend, Linda 
  • Wallace sent me from her ranch in Texas.  The blue bells
  • were in full bloom and I thought it would make a beautiful card
  • for a Tilda.. So I printed the photo on card stock and colored a
  • Tilda using copics, cut her out and put  her on the photo.. I then
  • used MS liquid glue and dotted all over the blue bells and used
  • MS flocking powder and poured it on top.. there we had blue
  • bells...  I used Recollections pearls in each corner and on the
  • bottom and lavender ribbon with blue bells attached to it.
  • Used DCWV sentiment with my nestability to make a frame for
  • it.  I hope you enjoy my very 1st easel card.. it was fun and meant
  • a lot to me using my friends photo,  She will be getting the card.
  • Thank you for viewing my card and hope it will brighten your day..
  • Please leave a comment to let me know what you think of my 1st
  • try at this new venture of mine!!
  • Hugs, Jean

    Jean how clever of you to use your friends photo as a background. Then to put the flocking on for flowers. She'll love it! Great job on your Tilda and card.

    This is absolutely wonderful Jean. I love Tilda sitting in a field of beautiful Blue Bonnets - our State Flowers. Your card is very original in it's setting and our embellishments really pulled it together beautifully.

    Hello Jean! Such a great idea! At first, I thought it was lavender, as does look like it. I could almost smell the perfume. It is so cute to have put the flowers with the bows, I love the recall. Beautiful.
    Hugs.
    Danielle.

    I am so glad you reposted address. I had so wanted to see your labor of love--I do mean LABOR! This is a great idea on your easel card. Love Tilda in the meadow. I scrolled back on your blog because I am a newbie and really liked the graduation card. I hope my first attempt at posting at all goes as well as this.
