First Magnolia!!!!


I just received my brand new magnolia stamp in the mail all the way from SWEDEN on friday. So I quickly got to work playing with her-Tilda-isn't she adorable? It took me a bit to find the ez mount paper so I could use her-she arrived unmounted. And then I had to play around with colors a bit.
My brand new nestie also arrived on friday so i got to play with it as well...I just love it! I can't wait for my oval nesties to arrive!!!
Okay so what do you think? I'm happy with the resluts-I wish I had money to buy those copic markers....but for now my watercolor pencils work great-and they are super affordable too. :O)
Enjoy.
Paper is from my giant stack of K&company paper from costco.
Flowers are prima and button is CTMH.

This is so adorable Nicole! You did a fabulous job playing with your new Magnolia and Nesties! The layout is great and your colouring really rocks! Can I ask what brand of watercolour pencils you use???

I hope this is where I reply to a question posed in a Blog comment. lol I'm a newbie here!
I use Close To My Heart water color pencils and I also have a few individual Derwent in colors I don't have in CTMH. I got those from Michael's.
Thatnks for replying!
