Thanks to YLM, (Cindy) who sent me a whole care package of delightful images, I had two great ones to work with today. Cindy I love everyone of them. I used the tree image she sent and instead of cutting Tilda out I inserted her over the tree. Since I didn't have the option of masking I hand drew the part of the tree that is on Tilda's Image layer. Everything was colored with prismas and gamsol. The tree is by Alotta Rubber Stamps and is called Parker's Tree, the Girl by Magnolia

Mel, this is fabulous! We should get our ladybugs together! (LOL!) Your hand drawing of the tree is wonderful.......I never would have thought of it! I love your coloring, and the way you put the panel up! Great colors (esp. the RED!), and I love the punched strips!! Great job, GF!!

Oh my gosh this is fantastic!! You have made your whole card look like one giant lady bug. I wonder if you planned these details ahead of time, or if they came together as you went. I love the black and white plaid and your awesome black and white MS borders. Of course your coloring is nice, but I just like the whole overall appearance of your card. Wonderful!!
