This week at Simon Says Stamp we have a photo inspiration challenge for you. Now I must admit I'm not usually too good at these but this photo really inspired me...especially when my gorgeous new Tilda in the Rain landed in my letterbox!! I already had a rough idea how I wanted to use her before she arrived and my idea linked perfectly with the challenge - yay!! As always our lovely boss Heidi is sponsoring the challenge and you could win a $25 gift certificate to spend in the Simon Says Stamp store!!! I am entering my card into the Stamp Something challenge too as their challenge is autumn somethings too!
I have used papers from the Basic Grey Indian Summer paper pad - perfect for Autumn - and I've distressed the edges with Tim Holtz paper distressing tool.
I have coloured Tilda with copics and added stickles to the rain drops, lace on her skirt, umbrella and the ground.
The gorgeous swirls and leaves were cut with the Magnolia Doo Hickey swirl and leaf dies and I added some flowers from my stash in autumn colours. I'm not sure who makes the pins as they were part of a candy I won last year :).
The individual autumn leaves are a Hero Arts stamp. I can't find the exact set I have in the Simon Says Stamp store but here is one similar. I stamped with three different distress inks directly onto some of the mustard coloured paper from Basic Grey before cutting them out. I've curled them for extra definition on the card and added them with silicone glue. I stamped them with tea dye, frayed burlap and walnut stain distress inks. I have used Martha Stewart double loops punch along the top edge of one of my layers too.
Hope you like it and I've inspired you to join us at Simon Says Stamp this week. The rest of the team have created some gorgeous inspiration too, why not pop and have a look! Thanks for looking! x

Jane, your card is absolutely amazing!! I can't believe all the beautiful embellishments that you included on this card. Love the flower, leaves, and distressing. That Tilda image is so cute and perfect for this challenge. I am always stunned by your work and could look at your blog all day for inspiration. Hope you are having a wonderful day!
