Pink, Ivory and Burgundy with Roses

I'm back with one more card before the weekend is over. And then its back to work for 3 days and off for 5 days for the Christmas break. The only sad thing about that is, I probably won't get any time to make any cards during the holiday since I will be out of the state.

Anyway my card is just what the title says with Tilda thrown in for good measure. The sketch is from Just Magnolia and the color theme is from Colour Create Challenge Blog. I haven't decided yet if it will be a birthday card or a valentine card for my granddaughter. So I didn't add any sentiment. The papers are from my supply of scrapbooking supplies and until I dug deep, I did not even know that I had any burgundy paper, the roses are from a goodie bag given to me by a really good friend. I have to tell you that the roses are really getting a work out. I'm going to have to replace some of them real soon. I embossed one of the cream colored papers with the Cuttlebug swiss dots folder and along the bottom edge of the pink paper I used a new folder set that I recently got that comes with 5 different designs. Don't you just love the Cuttlebug? The other cream paper is some that I don't even know where I got it from, but it was sectioned into 4 equal squares 2 were purple and 2 were cream with a faint design on it. I took a picture of the Copics that I used to color my Tilda. After coloring her I cut her out and popped her up with small pop dots. I really like the total effect. I almost forgot the ribbon since it was so sheer. It is a cream color ribbon that came in a variety pack that I bought at Hobby Lobby.

Please leave a comment and let me know what you think of her and if you think it should be a birthday or Valentine's day card.
