Tilda with Straw Hat

Hello everyone how are you all doing.  I nearly fainted this morning when I opened the curtains to blue sky and sunshine its still very cold but sunshine nonetheless so I'm not complaining.  In fact I apologise my photos seem a little on the dark side but I couldn't take them in the conservatory like I normally do as it was too bright!!!!

 

Anyway, I've gone back to my Magnolias for this one and did a bit of masking and picked out the yellows in my DPs for the colour combo.

 

Image:  Magnolia 'Tilda with Straw Hat' & 'stone path'

Medium:  copics/promarkers

Papers:  First Edition 'Blank Canvas'

Dies:  Memory Box 'puffy clouds', Spellbinders 'labels 22'

Flower:  Cherry blossom from WOC

  

Another piccie to show you the side view.  The semi circle of hearts behind the top layer of papers is not a punch it is in fact a cupcake wrap.  I bought a pack of 20 from Hobbycraft a while back as I liked the filigree hearts.

 

 

Lastly a close up of the images.  I'm fairly happy with how they've turned out and with hindsight I should have added some clouds in but this is something I need to practice so is on my 'have a go' list.
