I love Magnolia images, especially this time of year.  I grabbed Tilda with Ribbon Heart Scarf and had fun coloring her up with rich Christmas green and reds.  All the snow falling was a fact here in Ohio yesterday. I did a joy fold card for something a little different.  I think she turned out pretty well and is decked for the upcoming celebrations.  I finished the card off with a bow, lace and some pearls.

Loves Rubberstamps - Lots of Layers

Hello Friends!

What fun the challenge is over at Loves Rubberstamps this week!  It is Lots of Layers!  I love thick, dimensional layered cards.  So this challenge is right up my alley.  Our sponsor this week is Birdie Brown.  They generously provided us some images to work with this week.

I have chosen Girl with a Rose and colored her up with my copics on cryogen paper.  I decided to do a vertical joy fold card for this challenge, lots of opportunity for layers.  I cut the image out with Spellbinders Labels 26 and also folded in half my background to cut with the same die.  I was careful not to cut the top of the folded paper, to create the flap on the card.  The bottom was folded up and the edges of the paper were punched with Fiskers scallop border punch.  I chose the Simple Stories, Summer Fresh paper pack on this card.  I loved the fresh, fun papers to choose from.  The sentiments were stamped with black tuxedo memento ink and are from the Fiskars Make a Wish clear stamp set.  I also inked all the edges with brushed corduroy distress ink.

Copics used:

Dress:  B91, B95, B97

Skin:  E000, E00, E11

Rose:  R20, R24, R29, R39, G20, G24, G28

Hair:  E29, E30, E35, E39

Shoes:  W3, W5, W7

Socks:  W0, W1
