Devine Tilda CAS

Hi there.

I have a quick CAS Magnolia card to share with you. This is Devine Tilda from the waiting for Christmas Collection. She is one of my favorite stamps because you can use her for any occasion.

I colored this image using Copic Sketch markers and tried to to a "no lines" technique. It's been a while since I tried to do this technique. I used Antique Linen Distress Ink pad to stamp the image. The DI is very light so bleeding or smudging isn't really my concern here. I have seen Alice Wertz use Antique Linen on her images so I thought I'd give it a try.

Since DI's are not oil based, there are safe for Copic nibs.

Thank you for stopping by and I hope to see you again soon!

March Review and Flip Thru Video

Hello Friends.

Today, I am sharing with you how my Filofax pages for the month of March looked like. I will also have a flip thru video of the first 3 months of the year in my Filofax. As I find it hard for me to do a weekly Filofax post (although I really want to do it... but life gets in the way all the time...) I will do a monthly review and flip thru every 3 months.

March 1-7
