Tickled Pink Fashionista Lil Lolitas Preview Day 3!


It's preview day 3 at Tickled Pink and today I have the adorable 30's Lylah. I love her so much, I colored her to look like ME! (Notice the resemblance? I WISH!) Anyway, I sort of dropped the ball on the vintage theme, I'm afraid, but I think Lylah is so stylish she could be of ANY era. I also think she's be perfect for any occasion so I made a thank you card (which is something you can never have too many of, don'tcha think?).

I colored her with Copics to match the sort of vintage double sided DP from Sassafrass. The mat is cut and framed with Nesties Labels Three. The cool border is part of the paper. WooHoo! Flowers are Prima and the sentiment is from a Cuttlebug Cardmaking combo, cut twice, and offset slightly for emphasis.

Both Lylah and the mat are popped and of course I used some of my signature adhesive beads. If you would like to WIN Lylah, be sure to leave a comment on the Tickled Pink Stamps Blog HERE and check out the fabulous creations by the Pink Ladies. If you'd like to win the WHOLE set, follow the leave a comment on each of the DT's blogs (including Peta's and mine) EACh day and you may be the lucky one to win ALL 6 of these fabulous stamps. If you've missed any of my previous posts, please scroll down. The winners won't be announced until after the final preview day so there's still time! Remember, Tickled Pink ships stamps (only) WORLDWIDE so NO ONE is left out! WooHoo! Preorders coming soon!

    D-
    I adore how you cut out the center with your Nesties and then put a different pattern in that spot. And the stamp image is so cute. Great job!

    The colour combination works so well & I like the way the different patterns in the papers make a coherent whole despite the very different shapes, though that very difference is what catches the eye. The mounting panel really highlights her so well. Learnt a lot from this - thanks.

    Donna,
    Wow, she does look like you, so elegant and stylish, you 2 must go to the same hairdresser lol (I will think of you everytime I ink her up). I love what you have done with her, your colours and colouring and framed so wonderfully. She is perfect for any occasion. Hugs Jodie from Oz
