Just a reminder of the current challenge at the Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog. The theme is 'Anything Goes'--which is probably just about everyone's favorite. Not sure if it's mine though...tee hee. Anyway you still have a bit of time left to join in the fun. Details can be found at the Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog. Have a look also at the fabulous cards/projects of my DT teammates for inspirations. This week it's Team B's turn to post their cards...and that means me!
This was the card that I made for my friend Danielle. It was a milestone birthday so I wanted to make her something special. Also, I had hoped to get it to her in time, but ahem...I was late with it. (Sorry, Danielle!)
I drew some Zentangle patterns to make the figure 60. (I'm really liking Zentangle, Diana!) Would love to try to do more tangling if I can just find the time...LOL.
This is another easel card from me. Tee hee...it's my fave type of cards, so there are lots of these on my blog.
I'm featuring a couple of adorable Magnolia images here:
- Princess Pea Tilda from the Once Upon A Time Collection 2013
- Tilda Binding Flowers from the Special Moments Collection 2013
Magnolia-licious, Diana's on-line store is an excellent source for your Magnolia stamps. Diana carries a large selection of both the full size and mini stamps. And if you don't see the particular one you are looking for, contact Diana and ask her if she can bring it in for you.
