Basic Grey DT

We have a sketch by the talented TaraG over at Basic Grey this week. The prize is sponsored by the fabulous Heidi at Simon Says Stamp and is Wisteria themed. Quite by coincidence I used Wisteria papers this week.
Tilda is coloured once again in Copics, I couldn't make my mind up on which colour to used for the present and eventually opted out to use gold twinkling H2O's which don't really show.  I got all my papers etc. cut and ready to assemble, decided to cut Tilda out using the curved rectangle nesties then OOOOPS - partially decapitated her, poor Tilda. Had to do her again, by which time I was rapidly running out of time so fortunately there was no need for many embellishments as they can take me ages to sort out which, the colour, where  and how etc. I rather like the clean uncluttered look of this one. The sentiment is Lily of the Valley and I used an EK Success punch for the borders.



Check out the other DT's cards there are some fabulous creations.
Now my today's challenge for myself is to catch up on some emails, both writing and replying - I'm so far behind people are going to think I've fallen of the planet.
