JUST MAGNOLIA WK 31


Evening all... well as I said in a previous post ive been playing with some of my new christmas Magnolia stamps and boy are they cute!!!I just love colouring these sweeties. And when I saw Mina's fab sketch over st JM I just had to have a go!I've used cutie santa Edwin and perched him on the fab fireplace image.I'm really into masking atm and distressing too lol.And these MME paper's are perfect for this i think. I've used my fave colour medium polychromos to colour my image and used old paper distress ink for the background as i felt the white was too harsh for the card.The buttons are Papermania,sentiment is from a PB clear set and ofcourse no card of mine is complete without me handstitching lol.Well i'm off to watch I'm a Celeb...love this programme :)

have a lovely evening and thanks for looking xx

CCT #86 - GLITTER ME SILLY!

Evening bloggers!Hope you've all had a lovely weekend?I thought i'd share the card my cousin asked me to make for his friend who is a big Supernatural fan and Sam is her fave(he's the one at the front). I was'nt sure what to do at first so I looked on the internet for images and picked this one and used the colour's in it as inspiration for the rest of my card. I used All Dressed Up DCWV paper's, a sizzix swirl die,craftwork card's candy, Papermania CCSR sentiment, Papermania alpha stickers and circle nesties. Well she loved it thankfully and because there is glitter on the paper i'm entering it into this week's CCT challenge.
Hope you like and thanks so much for stopping by. Ive been playing with my gorge new Magnolia stamps so shall have some creations to show you soon I promise :)
Off to watch the rest of I'm a Celeb I LOVE this program lol.

We're taking the boys to a firework display tonight...i'm hoping the weather is kind to us and the rain holds off unlike last year!It would'nt be so bad but when you have to look up to see the fireworks and the rain's pouring on your face and in your eyes, it kind of spoils the experience lol.Oh well atleast i can stay warm by the lovely big fire :)
