At just For Fun this week...

...Mardi Gras is coming. OK, this was really hard. I had no clue about that event. Thanks to Google I could learn a bit about it. (We don't have many of these happenings here in Sweden.) And it looks like if you don't have a costume on you should wear the colours

Green, purple and gold

And that is what you are supposed to use on your cards for the challenge over at For Fun this week. Had a little trouble finding an image for these colors and had to think long and hard about it. Then I thought of this little uninked Tilda from Magnolia that I have had in my stash forever, and she do look fabby in Mardi Gras colors if I might say so. :) I have colored her with Aquamarkers from Letraset and some twinkling H2O's for the golden details. It might not show very well in the photo but it's a nice golden glitter to it IRL.


This time it's DP from Papermania that is used. Flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts and half pearls from BunnyZoe. Some stickles is used on the flowers and butterflies as well. Ok, I think I leave you with that. As usual one of my kids is sick, so it will be a day spent infront of the TV and tons of cartoons and may be a book or two.

Take care and love n hugs for you all,
Marie

Vilken söt liten Tilda, den har jag inte sett förut...skulle passa mina kinastämplar som jag vann i höstas och inte vet vad jag ska göra med... *tänker visst högt* ;)
Kortet är superfint!
Hoppas ryggen är bättre & att knodden piggar på sig supersnabbt!
