Sweet November - Tilly

Welcome to the first of three days of Sweet November previews for the month of May. I think you are going to love these new collection of characters, the Garden Gnomes. Today we are showing you "Tilly."

I stamped Tilly and cut the image panel eliminating part of the rake then colored with Copics, paper piecing the apron portion. I also stamped the rake portion onto the small ticket shape which was cut with the new C.C. Designs Tickets Cutters. I then aligned the two images up for a spotlight effect. A few flowers, leaves and a small bit of cotton twill added to the garden theme. All the paper is from the October Afternoon 5 and Dime paper pad. 




Products: Sweet November stamp, C.C. Designs Cutters, October Afternoon dp, My Favorite Things Die-namics, Martha Stewart punch, Copic Markers
Copics: E000, E01, E11, R20; Hair-E33, E35, E37; Dress/Bonnet-E81, W00; Apron Strings/Shoes-B32, B34, B39; Bonnet Trim/Rake Handle-R22, R24, R29; Rake-C1, C3, C5; Shadows-BG0000, Soil-E41, E42, E44

Amy, the illustrator of the Sweet November line has a card to share with you and also outlines the details on how to win some blog candy which includes the stamp we are all using today.

    Tilly must be one careful gardener because her gorgeous white dress still looks clean and pristine, LOL! I really love the pop of color that the paper pieced apron adds and your clever use of the ticket die is a great touch! Fabulous card my friend! :)

    Hi Nancy.
    I really love how you use your papers along with your stamped image. There is so much going on, but somehow you manage to keep Tilly the center of attention and I really love your style. This card just screams Spring to me and I just really enjoy looking at it. Thanks for sharing your work with us. She truly looks adorable. Hugs, Lisa G
