Hands up if you've had the snuffles lately!

And here is a close up of Tilda ready to render First Aid,

not sure about the size of that needle though!!!

I had great fun with this particular project, a great excuse to play with my airbrush again.

But here I must make a confession, I had to spray it twice - guess who forgot to put a mask over the image first time grrrrrr!!

Whilst the mask was still in place I used a small natural sponge sprayed lightly with Isopropyl Alcohol, dabbing it on the sprayed area to create a speckled effect.  I then went back over the same area with darker shades of markers dotting around Tilda's feet to create a shadow.

Then I pulled off the mask, adhering it to a piece of tracing paper cut to size and popped it in a storage box so it can be re-used in the future and set to colouring the rest of the image as usual.

I thought I would enter Tilda into the following Magnolia challenges:

TOMIC: Get Well/Best Wishes with picture for colours/theme

Magnolia Stamp Lovers: Stitching real or faux

Totally Tilda: #45 Stitching

Ooh and before I forget, do you look forward to each new edition of
