Magnolia-licious Colour Challenge

Hello Friends,

It is crazy at my house.

Been that way for the last couple of weeks.

This is the first time I have been late

with my Challenge!!

Please forgive me.

It is Maria's turn to pick the COLOUR CHALLENGE

this month.

Here is her picture:

The colours she wants to see are:

PINK, GREEN, LIGHT YELLOW /OR ECRU.

I  had a bad time finding paper for this challenge

then Copics that would match what I found!

So I am not too pleased with the outcome of my card.

I bought some Design Paper from NITWITS.

Used SU card stock : Old Olive and Pink Pirouette.

The Magnolia Image I chose is

TILDA WIZARD #3081 from the

Prince and Princess Collection.

Here she is:

Tilda was a lot of fun to colour!

I have used soft green Seam Binding from

the Ribbon Girl.

The stars are from my stash as is the stickles 

and Crystal Lacquer.

Here is a closer picture of Tilda. I hope you can

see the shine on her glasses and shoes in this one.

I also took a close-up of the ribbon which has 4 bows.

The inside of this card is exactly the same on both sides!

I have not yet stamped a saying in the left side,

and won't until I have an occasion to use it.

The right side has plenty of room for writing :o)

If you join in our MAGNOLIA-LICIOUS CHALLENGE BLOG
