Just Magnolia # 44...BFF-Birthday Wishes!


Just a quick post this morning to share the card I made for the Just Magnolia challenge. This week the theme is Birthdays. I have had Tilda Picking Peaches for a while now and not inked her up so I thought I would use her for this card as she is just so darn cute! I picked out these papers from a 12x12 MME Totally Girl stack that matched this ribbon that I bought at Micheals in the sale bin. I also used one of the round digi lables from The Shabby Shoppe that just happen to match perfectly.
I stamped Tilda on Neenah card and coloured her with my Copics and Prisma pencils. I tried my hand at putting in some grass with pencils as per Linda's instructions on Saturday and Paula's grass tutorial...I still need a lot of practice with it. I left the image in the die and inked around the image with one of my new Distress inks, Wild Honey!

The sentiment is from Kraftin' Kimmie's Everyday Sentiment set, I added a few Rain Dots, these pretty flowers and a little Stickles for some sparkle!
Well, Thanks for stopping by and having a wee peek! I hope you can come back tomorrow as I
have something special to share with you!
Hugs,
