A Distressed Tilda Sketch


This is my entry for three challenges, hence the title, Tilda herself is not distressed in any way shape or form I would never do that to her lol. The first challenge is Lily of The Valley based on the sketch, the second is Just Magnolia the theme being 'Distressing' and the third is Scrappy Frogs who want your creation to have a Magnolia stamp on. I have used one of my favourite Tilda's and coloured her with promarkers, the backing papers are a mixture and I have distressed both the circle that Tilda is sitting in and the corners of the card. I am beginning to really enjoy this distressing technique and I am finding it much easier when I use Brilliance ink pads. I have added some flowers and leaves (cut from MS punch) and used some pearly doodles around the circle and popped one into Tilda's bow, I hope you like it hugs to all.

I love distressing. I distress almost everything I make, I can't help it. Especially if parts of my card are white, I hate white and I HAVE to distress the edges. lol
