Just Magnolia Challenge

Donalda has done a fab sketch for us on Just Magnolia this week.  Just my kind of sketch.  At last I have managed to use the new Simple Joys kit by Nitwit Collections.  Love the traditional colours of this kit so much. 

Check out that gorgeous Die-namics Faux Crochet Border die and Die-namics Doily die.  I hyperventilated when they arrived in the mail this week lol.  They cut a dream and the doily is whole, no half jobs like the Magnolia doily die that got me so hacked off a while back.

The sentiment is from Lili of the Valley – their Christmas Sentiments and the flowers are all from Wild Orchid Crafts, 25mm Tea Roses, 15mm roses, small flat gardenia, 4mm rose buds and 8mm semi open roses.  The stars are cut from chipboard then slathered in German Glass Glitter that shines so much better than the picture is showing.

I coloured the image with Copics and used
Skin:  E21, E00, E000
Hair:  E79, E74, E70, E40
Dress:  R29, R27, R25, R22
Roses/leaves: E59, E29, E27/YG67, YG11

I have another card that is almost done using the Simple Joys kit, I should get it up on the blog sometime this weekend.  It’s taken me a while to get finished as  I’ve been playing with my new Grand Calibur that arrived this week from Oyster Stamps and XXL dies from Go-Kreate, (they are fabulous and a heck of a lot cheaper than Nesties) so watch this space for fancy shaped cards.  Love it!!

I’ll be back later with the winner of the Promarkers candy.

Thanks for stopping by,
