A Face Lift For An Old Friend!

The challenge on Rainbow lady's Challenge blog this week was set by blogging and Forum friend Anne at Spirit of Creativity. The brief was to use an old favourite in a different way than normal. One of my most often used stamp ranges at the moment has to be the Magnolia range, in particular the image of Tilda from the back. I always use her with lots of patterned papers and make a girlie trendy card with her. This time I have made the card in the style of Michelle Zindorf. I love Michelle's style of work and have a dabble at it occasionally. Nothing ever looks as good but practice makes perfect as they say! Using a tutorial for one of Michelle's backgrounds I have made a 'Thinking of You' card using this often used image of Tilda, minus her handbag for the mood of the card.

A great challenge Ann!!

Wow, I just love the effect on this card. Fab way of using Tilda too. The DCM challenge card below is stunning too!

This is just fabulous Wendy - I'm struggling to find the right word for the effect...mystical feels wrong and so does atmospheric but it really does have the feel that the person the card is for is very much in her thoughts. I think the word I'm searching for must be....perfect! Thanks for joining in Twinnie

Love this Wendy - agree with what Anne has said already. It's a very thoughful and expressive card. I'm still pondering this one - not decided how to tackle it yet.

What a gorgeous card Wendy, I agree with other comments it somehow has the feeling of being very ethereal, is that the word I want?

Michelle Zindorf said...

Stunning! I love the dreamy feel of this. :)

What a fabulous card, that view of Tilda from behind with the backgound you made create a lovely pensive mood, just right for a "thinking of you" card.

It's a beautiful card Wendy - also shows how versatile Tilda can be when used with different backgrounds.
One of my favourites. Love Sue xx
