Just Magnolia and a sneak peek

Friday again, the first week of my holidays over,  Who nicked me jollies??  I’ve two cards to share today, the usual Just Magnolia card but also a sneak peek of the new Whimsy stamps that are being released 10am on Monday, July 19th.  Today I am showing Moonlit Ride (by Crissy Armstrong) and also the Fancy Friendship tags.  Keep an eye out on the Whimsy Blog for news of more sneak peeks over the weekend.

Lots of sparkle and bling going on here lol.  I have used Stickles and Hero Arts Prisma Glitter for the sparkle,  Basic Grey and K&Co papers and coloured the image with Copics.  The punch is a Martha Stewart Quilted Edge punch.

Next up is my Just Magnolia card – two easels in one day (guess who has been on holiday lol)!!  I have provided the sketch this week.

A sweet sweet lady sent me this stamp last week and I have been itching to use it.  Thanks sweetie xxx

magnolia-ballerina-easel 

I coloured Ballerina Tilda with distress inks (Walnut Stain and Black Soot for her hair, Tattered Rose and Aged Mahogany for skin), Spun Sugar for dress and shoes.

The sentiment is from the 1001 nights kit from Whiff of Joy.  The papers are CraftyBitz and Craft Creations and I’ve used the Martha Stewart Doily Lace punch (still my fave MS punch).

The flowers used are all from Wild Orchid Crafts and are: Curly Wild Roses, 20mm roses, 15mm roses, 5mm rosebuds, gypsophila.  The sentiment tag on the base of the card is Spellbinders Ribbon Tags and is just the perfect size for easel cards.  Bling and ribbon is from my stash.

Another epic blockbuster novel from me today rofl.  I’m off to Doncaster Racecourse tomorrow to demo for the gorge girlies from Lili of the Valley and will be meeting up with my buddies Jacqui, Marcea, Linda and Net so if you’re going hope to see you there.
