Hello.
I finally have a card to show you. Here's a criss cross card I've made.
I love this Tilda. I bought her because my nieces are Harry Potter fans (me too...LOL), so I thought I would use her when I have to make a card for them--I thought they would like that. So...she is called Wizard Tilda.
This image is part of Magnolia's Princes & Princesses Collection 2012. The stamp can be purchased from Magnolia-licious, Diana's on-line store. I've colored her with my Letraset Promarkers and Tria markers and used a few coloured pencils to add shadings.
Inside the pocket of the criss cross card, I have made a card insert. Oh yuk...the flowers look a bit orange in the pictures. But in real life they really aren't--more like deep yellow to match the DP of the card insert.
Full view of the card insert.
This is Tilda Catching Stars from the same collection, also available from Magnolia-licious. I've added glitter glue to the stars and Tilda's crown.
I am entering the following challenges with this card:
