Tilda - "Just For You" & Wording Verification Warning UPDATE


SO SORRY WORD VERIFICATION HAD TURNED ITSELF ON AFTER SEEING THIS ON SOMEONE ELSES BLOG SO HAVE NOW CHANGED IT. SO PLEASE CHECK YOUR SETTINGS
I HATE THE THING!


HAVE CHECKED AND THIS SEEMS TO BE A GOOGLE PROBLEM. I WENT OVER TO THE NEW INTERFACE THIS MORNING BUT HAVE SWITCHED TO THE OLD FOR NOW.
FINGERS CROSSED ITS DONE THE TRICK.

Well I cant remember the last time I made a card for a challenge of my choice. Normally I make the card then see what fits but I loved this weeks Papertake Weekly Challenge so this was made using this weeks sketch. I'm lovin my Tilda's and I've inked this one up for the second time, if it makes a third it will be a record!!
She's been coloured with Copics and I've used the beautiful papers from Bo Bunny's "Country Garden Collection". Lots of Dies and Flowers all covered with Stickles as usual. A piece of Lace and a Button with a piece of String that was off a clothes tag.
This may be my last card for a couple of weeks. Were off to Center Parcs during half term and I dont know if I will get any craft time before we go. I was hoping this gorgeous weather was going to continue but I think its on a downward spiral. As long as its not to wet and Center Parcs has lots of activities whatever the weather so I'm sure we will enjoy ourselves.

Heres my list of challenges I'd like to enter this card into;
Timbroscrapmania - Buttons & Pearls
Sentimental Sundays - Easter or Spring
Catch the Bug - Colour Challenge

Raise the Bar - In the Garden
