"Purple & Red Tilda"!

Little close up on that Ruby Red Butterfly!!

Who would have put those two colours together??? Me, ha ha!

This is my take on this weeks Sketch by Naoual over on the

Just Magnolia Challenge, what a fab sketch too!! I am trying to

enter every week on this one if I can, I think it's just fab!!

So today I have coloured my little shabby chic Tilda (think in

this outfit she should be called eccentric Tilda)!! in Purple and

Red using my Le Plume II pens. I have edged the

outside with Tim Holtz frayed burlap and antique linen. Paper

are these lush MME 29th Street Market called Carefree

"Graceful" Elegant Print/Poised Purple paper!! Got all that???

Punched flowers, leaves, hearts and butterfly. Sentiment stamp

is Personal Impressions which I have stamped with Memories

Ink pad in Port Red. Lace from stash. Think that's everything!

Happy Crafting Tuesday to you all! TFL Sue xx

What Susanmason Means

You are the total package - suave, sexy, smart, and strong.
You have the whole world under your spell, and you can influence almost everyone you know.
You don't always resist your urges to crush the weak. Just remember, they don't have as much going for them as you do.

You are a very lucky person. Things just always seem to go your way.
And because you're so lucky, you don't really have a lot of worries. You just hope for the best in life.
You're sometimes a little guilty of being greedy. Spread your luck around a little to people who need it.

You are usually the best at everything ... you strive for perfection.
You are confident, authoritative, and aggressive.
You have the classic “Type A” personality.

You are very intuitive and wise. You understand the world better than most people.
You also have a very active imagination. You often get carried away with your thoughts.
You are prone to a little paranoia and jealousy. You sometimes go overboard in interpreting signals.

You are confident, self assured, and capable. You are not easily intimidated.
You master any and all skills easily. You don't have to work hard for what you want.
You make your life out to be exactly how you want it. And you'll knock down anyone who gets in your way!

You are well rounded, with a complete perspective on life.
You are solid and dependable. You are loyal, and people can count on you.
At times, you can be a bit too serious. You tend to put too much pressure on yourself.
