Magnolia Ink

OMG! I couldn`t believe my eyes when I received a parcel from Sir Stampalot with the new Magnolia Ink magazine in it and a little note from Janice telling me to check out page 33. I won the competition and my card has been published! Woo Hoo !! Ever since I discovered Tilda`s and the Magnolia Ink magazine started I always wanted one of my cards to appear in it and it finally happened. I would have been happy just to be published but to win the competition too was the icing on the cake I am so chuffed!!

And here is the card itself




I used Tilda with lots of hearts (borrowed from my good friend Louise, thank you Louise) I actually borrowed the stamp to make an anniversary card I`d been commissioned to make from a friend of mine but stamped a few extra images out too and I loved the image so much I decided to make an extra card to enter in the competition! who knew!

I coloured her with distress inks and markers and used Magnolia papers, flowers and the DooHickey Doily die.


Other flowers used from Carnmeal cottage, WOC and hobby house, hobby house adhesive pearls, Nestablilites heart and Scallop hearts, petite ovals and scalloped ovals, lace and doilies from the ribbon box and bazzill gingham gathered ribbon.

I can`t stop smiling, I am so happy what a great start to 2013, I hope this is a sign of things to come for this year and my good fortune continues!

I`d better get off cloud nine now and get some housework done ! thanks for lookin in,
bye for now and happy crafting xx
