Two posts in one day....crAZy! We are having a lazy day here at home...my two youngest are just outside my craft door playing with our HUGE collection of fisher-price people. They are so cute, building a huge village. :o)Anyways, I was going to keep this card and post it tomorrow but I wanted to get it in for the very first JUST MAGNOLIA challenge blog...wow did you check out the prize up for grabs?? It's huge!
Here is the sketch for this week's challenge...that ends tonight.
My bloggin' sista Kelly sent me several of the new Spring Magnolia images....I didn't get the kit this time around....yes I AM kicking myself!
But I'm saving up so I can order a few of the images..especially the running Tilda!!!
I received Kelly's package in the mail the other day and was so excited to start coloring!
I colored Tilda in with copics...of course.
The paper is Pine Cone Press papers
The sentiment stamp is from my LSS...I believe it is Daisy Bucket
The buttons are SU!
The flowers are Prima
Sparkles and brads are CTMH
The ribbon is from Michael's Craft Store
I also wanted to share with you how I made my rhinestone flourish.
I picked up the In Stitch'z by Bazzill flourishes template. It is intended for use with embroidery floss...
But I used a pencil instead of a piercing tool to make the marks. Then after I made all the marks I went back and stuck my rhinestones on top of the marks...voila! I have a rhinestone flourish.
The flourish template kit comes with four sheets of different flourishes. And they stay together with a ring.
Here is a close up of one of the templates...easy peasy and so very pretty. ;o)
OKay so thats it for today.
Have a great Thursday!
