Hi everyone, hope you've all had a great weekend! A card today for
Just Magnolia challenge where this week there's a wonderful sketch by my DT friend Martine which I love. I've used this lovely Tilda for my card which was a gift from another DT friend Larissa, thank you girls. Colouring is with Copics with lots of spica glitter pen and stickles and sponging with distress ink around the edges of the oval scalloped nestie. There's also a frame above the image cut from acetate and stamped in white ink with a Laura Ashley stamp. Flowers are done in the same way as the frame, the largest was heated a bit to make the edges curl. The paper is Magnolia peaches and I've embossed with the Cuttlebug script folder and sanded some Core'dinations whitewashed card and plain cream Core'dinations. Added some faux stitching, doodling, polka dot ribbon, a die cut tag and punched and shaped leaves to finish. TFL.
