Star Spangled Tilda

Morning!

I hope everyone is ok this morning, I'm feeling a little tired I got too excited watching Andy Murray last night LOL and I started making this card, I've had to finish it this morning as I was too carried away last night LOL!!


I bought Liberty Tilda a while back & have been dying to use her but wanted some stars & stripes papers to use with her & I struggled finding any I liked, so when I found some in Sweet Shoppe Designs I just HAD to have them!

I printed out the stars & stripes paper & a few elements from the Kit, the celebrate tag, the Freedom tiles & a little eagle (for the inside). I colored Tilda with Pro Markers, added ribbon & jewels & flowers from my stash.

I decorated the inside to match, added another Liberty Tilda & a funky little Eagle embllishment made with my epiphany tool.


I must say, I do quite love this card. But if you know me well you'll know I LOVE everything to do with that great land they call the USA!!!! Please adopt me someone who lives theres so I can come & live with you LOL

I'm entering my card into the following challenges:
Simon Says Stamp Challenge - Sporty and or Patriotic
Cute Card Thursday - Patriotic
Tilda's Town - Time to Celebrate

Right I must dash, I still have to wash & dry & Straighten my hair as Im due at work today - I don't think I could call in & say Im not coming in today 'cos I'm coloring Tilda in LOL See you all laters, I'll be back with my Crafter's Companion Challenge card when I get in from work. xxx

I've been tempted to use that excuse to go in late, I can just imagine how that would go down.
You're from my neck of the woods, I'm just down the A19 at Hartlepool, hope you were ok in that downpour the other week, I couldn't believe some of the photos I saw.
Your card is fab, the DP's are great
