The first challenge theme is: Pink & Polka Dots!! Be sure to stop by and check out all of the specifics. One winner will be chosen randomly to win a $50.00 gift card to the 7 Kids store!!!
For the background, I used the Spring Fence stamp. I stamped it with Staz-On on watercolor paper and used Tim Holtz Re-inkers to color it. The watercoloring is pretty new to me, so bear with me as I work on it! Tilda was stamped on Copic Paper and colored with Copics - sorry ladies, I was not brave enough to try watercoloring her too!! I had to pull out some more Basic Grey Infuse DP - I can never get enough Basic Grey!! I paired it with some Pretty in Pink & Old Olive cardstock. The sentiment is from a PTI Ltd. Edition Set. I cut the sentiment out with a Labels Trio Nestability and airbrushed it with some Copic Marker. I used my sewing machine around the DP. I added some PTI ribbon, Prima Roses, Martha Stewart Floral Lace Border punch and some leaves for embellishments.
Here is a close-up of Tilda. I used some Inkssentials Gel pen to add polka dots to her dress and some Stickles on the flowers at her feet.
Supplies:
Stamps - Jam Tilda, Spring Fence, Sentiment (PTI)
Paper - Old Olive, Pretty in Pink, Copic Paper, Watercolor Paper
Ink - Memento, Staz-On, Copics, Distress Re-Inkers
Accessories - Inkssentials Gel Pen, Labels Trio Nestability, Stickles, Sewing Machine, PTI Ribbon, Prima Roses, Nellie Snellen Leaf Punch, ATG Gun, Scoring Tool, Martha Stewart Border Punch, Copic ABS

I was just abou to ask how you achieved such a lovely watercolour background when I read your comment about colouring Tilda's dress on my blog, lol
I love your soft colouring, that is a style I totally struggle with. Too heavy-handed, I guess.
I might get together a tutorial on colouring folds with Copis in next weeks since loads of people have asked. Things are wee bit unpredictable at the moment, my son is seriously sick and crafting time down to minimum - if at all!!
