Your Tilda card is lovely Sarah - why are they so addictive???!!!
I received a copule more in the post today - Tilda sitting with plaits, Tilda with Teddy, Tilda with petticoats and Edwins bench which I thought would be great with the sitting down stamps and yesterday I bought one locally which is Tilda and Edwin cuddled up together. Let me know if you'd like any of those! In the meantime I hope to get some stamping time to myself tomorrow!!

Those two cards are fabulous girls, i take it they are watercoloured.

Ive been trying to do watercolouring but its just not happening the way it should. I was using my pens scribled on plastic then using a water brush mixed and transferred to paper but nothing transferred. I used more water, picked up more ink, squeezed bthe pen but it just wasnt going to happen.

What on earth am i doing so wrong lol

You can colour the image direct and then blend with water on a brush or I scribble onto card to get a solid block of colour and then brush and water to make it liquid

Thanks girls...I've been using a mix between colouring straight onto the paper with pens, colouring on the paper then using water (just a wet paintbrush) to blend, and sometimes I do the scribble on plastic and pick up with a wet brush thing!
On the card above, I just coloured the top half with pens, but for the bottom half I picked up the ink with a wet brush.

Jenny, that's so pretty on the embossed background

Thanks Nic!

Pink Chocolate, I colour mine in with watercolour pencils (Derwent) and then use a waterbrush to go over. If anywhere needs more shadow I just add some more pencil and use the waterbrush again. HTH
