I really enjoyed working with this sketch, especially as it's been a while since I've used one. Here's what I made:
I used Maja Designs paper from the Vintage Spring collection. I don't often use blue, but I love the soft tones in these papers. Tilda has been stamped onto watercolour card and coloured with DIs and Distress Markers. I used some of the postmark stamps from an earlier Magnolia collection, stamping them with Weathered Wood ink around the image. I also sprinkled a tiny bit of Frantage around the image mat, just because! I added a doily behind the image and some chipboard corners, painted with Picket Fence paint, at the top of the card. The sentiment is from a Penny Black sticker sheet that is years old and the roses are from Wild Orchid Crafts.
