Butterfly Tilda

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend! I vowed I would create and post a Magnolia card today and here it is. I'm not sure of the real name, but this little gal is part of the new Spring kit that was just released. I think this is one of the cutest kits ever. I spent most of my time today mounting this kit and other unmounted stamps I had on ez mount foam. I tend to procrastinate until I have a bunch to mount. I cut out some of my adhered stamps with a hot knife and this morning I just had to touch one of my fingers on the wrong spot and "ouch"! More about my card - I colored her with copics (my standard with Magnolia's) and used DCWV's blossoms and butterflies mat stack for my DP. Tilda is mounted on "nested flowers". I used my cuttlebug to emboss and cut the flowers and outlined the larger flower with a gold leaf pen. The small butterfly is also in the Spring kit. I also used candlelight shimmerz on Tilda's wings. I do have a sentiment under Tilda entitled "joy". Sorry about the shadow, but I was late finishing and daylight had disappeared! I don't know about you, but I lose all track of time which I'm upstairs in my craft room. I'd love to hear your comments!
