Tilda's Christmas Scene

 


This card is one I have been wanting to make for a while now, the background pond stamp I purchased (actually I think I got it when I won free stamps from Diana at Magnolia-licious, thank you! click here for it) specifically for this skating Tilda and Edwin. I made the card 5" square but I think in order to get the perspective a little better a 6" card would work better. I colored the card with Stampin' Up markers this time - they don't blend easily but I wanted to give them a try so this would be brighter than with the water color crayons. Anyway it's just a nice Winter scene and a fun one to make. Hope you are taking some time to enjoy the season- stop for a minute and think what it is all about and what is really important. I have this year and am going to make some changes next year accordingly! Merry Christmas!
