Have A Great Day!

It has been quite some time since I managed a Just Magnolia challenge, but as I needed to make a girlie Birthday card and the fact that this week's challenge is a sketch, it all happened very nicely!
All the backing papers, including the cupcake embellishment are from a Kirsty Wiseman freebie via Crafts Beautiful a while ago, I've just lightly inked the edges and added a bit of doodling. I coloured the image firstly with watercolour paints and then added some depth with watercolour pencils.

The wings were glittered and the sentiment stamp is Anita's.


So there you have it! For the next few days it will be Design Team posts which hopefully will schedule correctly as we are away in Edinburgh at a family Wedding. Thank goodness it is a Bank Holiday weekend so I can do some crafting on Monday before it's back to work!

Cool Coloured Birthday

It's been a long long time since I joined in with a Magnolia challenge. I sorted through the stamped images I have been sent by fellow Funky Hand DT members and found some Tilda images, so I thought I'd have a go at the current challenge which is this sketch:


I decided to use the papers from Funky Daze and although they are more suited for a male card, I do like them on this one! I've coloured Tilda's dress to match the papers and have added a bit of red glitter glue to the flower she is holding and the one in her hair. I've also added some glitter glue to her wings.

The die cut flowers are layered from my Cuttlebug flower die with card candy centres. Ribbon is from my stash (just the right length!) and I've hand written the sentiment.


This card is being sent to a little girl who will be 4 very soon!
