Just Magnolia

Woo get me, the second week on the trot I have managed to get a card done for Just Magnolia challenge, must be the new stamps – they have rekindled my love with Magnolias.  I had not bought any for the longest time … the sporty release put me off them totally but I’m a happy camper again Smile

So this week’s challenge is a totally awesome sketch from the lovely Jacque and she says to embellish to your hearts content …. bad move to tell me to do that lol.  So I decided to make an easel card for a change, not made one for ages.

I have used Tilda with Wrapped Heart, love her hair in this one.  The sentiment is from the Die-namics Polka Dot Greetings Die and Stamp Set.  The papers are the newest release from Nitwit CollectionsVal ‘n Tine Collection.  Chock full of pretty pink, right up my street!

Hair E25, E23, E50 and light umber pencil
Skin E11, E00, E000, E0000, R30
Reds R39, R37, R35, R32 and a touch of black pencil
Pinks E81, RV00, RV000, RV0000 and a touch of cool grey pencil 20%

The embellies are from Wild Orchid Crafts: organza ribbon, trellis rose, 20mm roses, sweetheart blossoms, 6mm rose buds and fabric flowers

Have a fabulous weekend, mine is going to be spent nose to the grindstone in my craft room all weekend, I have mountains of work to get done in the next couple of weeks.
