Tilda by Princess Castle Party Invitation Card

Good morning everyone. Another card to share with you today is using more images from the newest Magnolia Princes and Princesses Collection. Besides coloring the Party Tilda with Copics, I also did airbrush on the background on the Princess Castle image. Boy oh boy, I sure had fun cutting the little clouds and adhered them after, lol

Here is my finished card


I am using this card for the following challenges:
Truly Scrumptious Challenge 77 - Lace
Simon Says Challenge - Anything Goes
Stamp n Doodle's Challenge - Embossing
Party Time Tuesdays Challenge PTT 61 - Anything Goes
Magnolia Down Under Challenge 139 - Bingo (Lace, dies/or punches, Ribbons)
Make It Monday Challenge 82 - Anything Goes
One Stitch At a Time Challenge 106 - Anything Goes
Creative Mondays CH4 - Anything Goes

Closer view on these colored images


Here are some pictures to show you how I airbrushed the background of this card. First, stamp the Princess Castle image on a piece of cardstock (I use the XPress it blending card). Then stamp image one more time on a piece of paper (can be scrap or a thin paper), cut the castle image out from the scrap or thin paper. Use removable adhesive to cover the cut out castle on top of the castle image of the XPress it blending card. Using the Airbrush to spray the top sky part with blue color.


Use Green color to spray the bottom part as grass field. After finish all the airbrushing, remove the cover image, then start coloring the castle as usual using Copic/Primascolors pencils. I also wanted to mention the Stay Put Craft Mat here. That is the kraft mat you see under the image. OMG, I can't tell you enough how much I love this mat. It's very thick, not like the flimsy ones that thin like a piece of paper. This mat is totally wonderful. It has a good rubber feel layer at the bottom that allows a good grip between the mat and my craft desk, so it wont' shift things around. If you haven't get one yet, I highly recommend it!! Very easy to clean up too~

I used the Please Join Princess sentiment inside as a party invitation
