My First Sweet Tilda!

Ok I know it has taken me way to long to do this post but life just gets crazy sometimes!  I love going thru all the post o the Magnolia Blog.  When I come across a card I really like I leep a copy of it on my computer.  I especially liked a card that Caroline had done on her blog http://angel4031.blogspot.com/ and I decided to try to make one of my own.  I have recently received my Sweet Tilda stamp and wanted to try it out.  I had made my self a promise about 5 months ago that I would not purchase anymore paper until I use up a lot of the stock I have on hand so unfortunatley I dont know the name of the pattern paper I just went thru my stock and since I wanted to color my Tilda in purples I picked out paper that had small purple flowers along with purple and light green stripes.  I used cardstock that matched the purple and the light green.  I have been also downloading fonts and used Fang Song in bold to create the sentiment on the front and the inside.    I used an EK punch that I had for the edge and pulled a thin white satin ribbon from my stash.   I recently found my best friend that I had in high school and I wanted to send her this card.  I know Karen will love this card.  She is having some hard times right now with her health and I just want her to know I do think about her every day. 

I used the following copics to color Tilda
Y02  Hair
E00, E21  Skin
RV23 Cheeks
BV02, BV04, BV08, V17  Dress, shoes and socks

Thank you Caroline for your inspiration!
