Okee-dockey...finally! Here's the finished card of the tutorial I did a few postings ago (here).
I've added some glitter to the ornaments that Tilda has in her hands. I used a border punch to border my oval panel (tutorial here) and to make the hanging ornaments. This adorable image is of Tilda Hanging Ornaments from Magnolia's Merry Little Christmas Collection 2010. And I used my markers to do the colouring.
Check out Diana's on-line store Magnolia-licious for both full-size and mini-size Magnolia stamps. She also has a fabulous collection of cutting dies from Memory Box, PoppyStamps, Magnolia, Marianne Design and Cheery Lynn. The prices are discounted and for a bonus you also get 2% credit that you can use on future purchases. How cool is that!
