Beachy Card

Oh my, I have been gone a while huh? Well, I have been doing a few other things around here and have needed a little break from blogging.  I decided I had better get to work on this cute Tilda before Summer is over.  We are already feeling the signs of Fall here which is really early for us! 


I will admit to you that I almost threw this away.  I am not happy at all with my coloring, but like I said, I was taking a break and not really in the mood at the time. I do think this is a cutie little Tilda though and I paired her with the amazing Maja Designs papers! These nautical paper are totally gorgeous!!!! 

I raided hubby's garage stash for the rope and an old button.  There are a few shells mixed with the flowers.  I left off the sentiment in case I need it for a specific occasion.

I am going on a little trip to Colorado with hubby next week.  We are hiking while we are still young haha!  I hope to be refreshed when I get back so I can start crafting again!

Hugs to you all!!

    Hunny how could you ever not be happy with your colourwork? Really? She is gorgeous, although I wouldn't want to swim today, far too chillsome. I love all the dimension, and would love to have seen you raiding the garage!! Hugs Sxx

    Hi Dena,

    This is lovely and your colouring is great, I think you are your own worst critic. Enjoy Colorado, some beautiful scenery will help get the creative juices flowing again.

    I think this is gorgeous! I'd be over the moon if I would colour half as well as you! lol.

    Adore all the embellishments too, and the striped paper is brilliant!

    Love it. The beach huts remind me of summer holidays when I was a child in England.
