Here is my card for today's Challenge: * my pictures are clickable for larger view again *
This little Tilda has had my heart since I first saw her. She reminds me of myself. Shy
and quiet and FULL of LOVE - not quiet knowing how to say
I LOVE YOU........
Today she has finally gotten brave enough to tell that special person how she feels!
Here is a picture of her close up:
Isn't she just the sweetest wee thing ever???
I also have a picture of my flower close up so that you
can see the Stickles I added to the centre and the
Crystal Lacquer I added as drops of
water to some of the petals.
Here is the inside left of my card:
Here is the inside right:
My style of card making is Clean and Simple. I hope it
helps you all realize that you don't need to have a lot of 'stuff' on a card to make it
attractive and a joy to receive for those special in your life.
Remember that Diana gives a $25.00 Gift Certificate to the winner :o)

Hey my sweet chocolate-lovin' friend!! What a beautiful card!! I love the way you colored this adorable little Tilda! (Didja notice, this Tilda has a chin!!! hehehe!) I love the pinks and greens you used to color her outfit...I tell ya, I'd give my eye teeth for some yummy green shoes like Tilda's wearing!! Perfect!! And I so love this clean 'n simple design style ... and have been working on a little clean 'n simple myself! It's harder than it looks! :-) Have a fab day sweetie! Hugs. Pat

Hey Sweet lady! Candy your card is gorgeous. I have said this before, but I will repeat what I often been told by professional artists. KISS - which is translated as keep it simple sugar or keep it simple stupid. I have heard it stated both ways many times. I love the message you sent out to the group encouraging people that the card does not have to be all dressed up like a circus horse. LOL! That's what Mama used to say about getting all gussied up. Your card is wonderful Candy with touch of brilliance - that dew drop! Your coloring is so good Candy. Your papers are scrumptious. Wonderful card my friend!!
Love,
Sandy
Such a pretty, pretty card Candy! LOVE that green with the pink and the crystal lacquer you used for drops of water are awesome! Gotta get me some!
Judy K.
I LOVE your clean and simple cards!!! I think they really spotlight your coloring, rather than it getting lost in all the "stuff". Beautiful card!
Great card Candy. Love the layout sketch!
First, I love the sketch and your did a beautiful job with it! Secondly, your coloring of Tilda is stupendous! Look at those pleats in her dress. The gorgeous flower is stunning! Fabulous job...hugs...Barb
Lovely card, Candy! I like the color combo and you did a great job on the sketch! This is also one of my favorite Tildas with that shy, innocent look!

Both Diana's sketch and Pat's picture are awesome and your interpretation is gorgeous!

WOW I just love that sketch and how you made it work. You're right...you don't have to have a lot on a card to make it look nice. Especially when you color as well as my friend Candy. LOL! And great idea to add water to the flower. I've done it before but forgot all about it!! This is just fabulous...as usual!! Hugs! Hope all is well with you!
She's absolutely gorgeous!!! One of my wish list tildas for sure!!! You have coloured her beautifully!!! I love the whole thing, it's elegant and so so pretty!!
