Totally Tilda's gone FRUITY!

Yessireeee. Fruity!

Actually, it's just the theme this week over at Totally Tilda! We have a fabby sponsor  this week, Best Cardmaking Downloads , so you wanna head over there and check it out. We got to use some of their digital papers, and here is what I made with the peaches paper!
Now before  you say "PEACHES! WHAT THE...". I threw the peaches paper into photoshop and changed the hue/sat to a plum color and voila, plum paper! I had to click on the leaves and invert the selection so that the rest changed and not the leaves.
Flowers are from Wild Orchid and prima, leaf punch MS, the butterfly is my mini Butterfly punch also MS.
I created the background by placing a sheet of the GREEN TEXTURED digital paper in the background and using my inverted scallop nestie to cut out the purple decorative ring and placed it behind the PEACH PAPER which I cut with the large scalloped nestie. I pop dotted them up off the background to make it look like a frame.

Hope ya like!

Make sure you go over to Totally Tilda and get your entries in!

Totally Tilda in the garden!

The brand new challenge is up over at Totally Tilda!!!

The challenge this week is Tilda in the Garden! We have Bunny Zoe sponsoring us this round and she has a sale on just for you! If you want more info head on over to the TT blog to get the deets.

Now for my card...
Papers, well what do you know, K&Company. Sentiment is Stampin up. The butterflies are My MS punches (just got the little butterfly lately). My sweet little son God love him made me a card for christmas and wrote in it "here you go mom, buy yourself something for stamping." He put $10.00 of his own money he earned in it.  He is 9.  I coulda cried. Too stinking sweet. So I bought the punch, I use it like crazy and he is soooo happy.

And a close up of course. Colored her up with my copics, I have really been into them lately. I actually use pink chalk and a q-tip for the cheeks it is so much easier than the copics.

Here is a close up of the butterfly. I used patterned paper and then bent it so I could sponge the body green and then rubbed some liquid pearls on it.

That is about it! I just want to thank all my followers, I just realized how much my list has grown. I am so sorry I haven't visited you all, I have been a terrible blogger these days. Got a lot on the go.

So head over to Totally Tilda and get those garden themed cards in and go spend some dough at Bunny Zoe's (she has some new maggies!!!!!)

I am going to enter my card over at Magnolia Down Under where the theme is a sketch.
