Magnolia-licious - Penny Black

Hi everyone, I have a card for Magnolia-licious challenge blog today using another stamp from the gorgeous Penny Black 'Mimi's Winter Friends' transparent set. This cute Mimi is coloured with watercolour markers and a bit of pencil here and there.
 

The background is water coloured and and I've added a stamped border with the poinsettia garland from the set. There's a bit of smudged black outlining of Mimi and the garland and I've added a sprinkling of snow with Frantage shabby blue embossing powder and stardust stickles. The card base is coloured to tone in with Ranger Distress ink in iced spruce. My decorations are die cut glitter card tiny snowflakes and sentiment, holly leaves and some pearls, lace and a flower.

As always there's lots of fantastic inspiration from my team mates over on the challenge blog through each week. Enjoy your day!
 

Paperbabe Stamps Decemeber Release - MayLeeDee Winter Fairy

Hi everyone, hope your week's been good, it seems to have whizzed by for me with this fantastic December release from Paperbabe Stamps. 

Everything is now for sale in the shop at Paperbabe Stamps including the final part of the release which is a gorgeous new digi image

MayLeeDee Winter Fairy 

She's gorgeous to colour and I did that with pencils after printing her out on some Bazzil Kraft card (I find this is a nice shade and it goes through my printer easily as it's lightweight).

 
I used a couple of sentiment stamps, snowflakes and one of the small tree group stamps from the gorgeous  Bottle Brush Tree stamp set and stamped the sentiment in black and everything else in white ink.
 

I've decorated with iridescent sequins, some die cut snowflakes and lace. Hope you have a great weekend, I have to seriously get down to doing Christmas cards and tags so I hope to have some of  the them on here soon.
