Oh wow, it's the 4th Tuesday of July already--the month is just flying by, LOL--so it's time for our monthly inspiration challenge at the Magnolia-Licious Challenge Blog. Here's my DT card.
Suzan is the hostess for the month and she has chosen this picture for your inspiration.
I will hope you will play along with us in our challenge. Check out the fabulous cards of my DT teammates for more inspirations at the Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog, HERE. There is also a prize for one lucky winner of $25 Gift Certificate to Magnolia-licious on-line store.
The 'I've got happy feet' sentiment is a digi freebie that I got from TLC (thanks so much). The other sentiment at the base of the card is one I typed on my laptop.
This image is of Tilda Learning To Dance--she's just oh-so-adorable! She is from Magnolia's newest collection, Turning Leaves Collection 2012--I'm having so much fun with this collection! I've used my collections of alcohol-inkmarkers to colour her. I've added glitter to her tiara, but I don't think you can see it in the picture below.
Full-size and mini Magnolia stamps are available at Magnolia-licious, Diana's on-line store. She also has a fabulous collection of cutting dies from Memory Box, PoppyStamps, Magnolia, Marianne Design and Cheery Lynn. Her prices are discounted!! And as a bonus, you also earn a 2% credit that you can use on future purchases. Sweet!
Challenges for this card:
I ♥ ProMarkers Challenge #126 - Sparkle (on her tiara and on the scalloped border of the sentiment at the bottom)
