Tilda and Friends ATC Challenge "Beside the Seaside"

Well finally I have made something I can actually share. This week has been busy, I finally started to feel better on Monday after being ill with the stomach bug that Georgia had earlier last week. While I was ill I couldn't take my antibiotics for my tooth so that started to get worse again. I had to go to a family funeral on Tuesday as my Uncle Peter died a couple of weeks ago. I was lovely to catch up with family, and chat about the past. I had to take Georgia with me to the funeral as everyone who could have looked after her for me was away. I was initially worried, but she was so well behaved, she sang the hymns in the crematorium, and was great back at the pub where we had a buffet and drinks. Yesterday I was back at the dentist and had a couple of small fillings...I had to have one of my wisdom teeth filled....now I have jaw ache as it felt like the dentist had his whole hand in my mouth....LOL

Anyway after all that I finally had some time to make something....I am behind with some of the challenges, but decided to start with the current one and if I get time I will catch up with the others from this week. So here is my ATC for the Tilda & Friends ATC Challenge "Beside the Sea". I have used my new Shabby Chic Background for the clouds and sun and cut them out. I also stamped Mermaid Tilda but cut her out of the rock she was sitting on and raised her on foam pads and left the stone unraised. The sea was done with torn bits of paper...I think the paper was Blonde Moments (the range with the cars). The sky is done with an Ice Blue chalk ink pad, Tilda is coloured with my Primacolor pencils and blended with Sansador using paper stumps. She is very sparkly as her wings, hair and tail have Sakura clear glitter gel pen on them.

A lovely summery challenge this week to get me back in the groove...if only I could actually catch up.
