Happy New Year!!

Hello and Happy New Year!

I have missed you all sooo much.

It has been 6 months almost to the day
since I did my last post :o(
Other than writing the blog posts
for Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog,
I haven't been able to do much of anything.

So I said ENOUGH of THAT and
am trying my hand at making cards again....
I hope you will bear with me cause they
are not going to be up to the quality
I like them to be.
There are several things I still can't do/
or do well
************

Now to the purpose of my post!

It is the first MAGNOLIA-LIOUS CHALLENGE 
BLOG OF 2012!

This month it is our lovely CABIO'S turn to pick
the DT'S Challenges. 

For the COLOUR CHALLENGE
she has chosen: PINK WHITE and RED.

Here is her picture for inspiration:



I have used Tilda with Many Hearts
# 308
From last years 
YOU ARE SO SPECIAL
COLLECTION.


She is not in stock at the moment,
but you all know to just get in touch
with Diana and she will
order it in for you.

DIANA has the largest online store
for ALL THINGS MAGNOLIA.
The choices are fantastic, she is the only
online Store (in North America) to sell Mini Magnolia's.
Her service is the best!

Here is the front of my card:



Supplies used:

Bo Bunny DP
SU card stock - Riding Hood Red and Pink Pirouette
Ink - London Fog
Pins, ribbon, charms and lace - stash
Crystal Lacquer
Stickles

Here is a close picture of Tilda:


Only when I was taking the pictures
did I notice I forgot the stickles 
on her petticoat!
I have since added them.

Here is the corner with ribbon and pins:


I snipped off the pointed end
of the pin.

I used the Crystal Lacquer
on all of the hearts on the DP.
I am hoping you can see them here:



Here is the inside. The charm
reads - Made with Love:


It is very plain and I couldn't show
you the right hand side as it was
written on and is now in the mail.

I do hope to be able to carry on
so I hope to see you again soon.

Hugs, Candy
