The second week of the Challenge at Marvelous Magnolia.

Good Morning.

Hope you all had a lovely weekend and are raring to go for another week.

I am here to remind you of the challenge which over at Marvelous Magnolia. 
We are being sponsored by The Ribbon Girl.

The theme for this challenge is Bling. Easy peasy for me as I love bling.

This is the first time I have used this gorgeous Magnolia image. Loved colouring her.

This is the first image I have coloured using Polychromo Pencils. Still much room for improvement but I am happy with the end result. Will be definitely buying more - don't tell Russ!!!



I have used some beautiful embellishments from the Ribbon Girl.

Pink Tulip Seam Binding, 40mm Daisy pale pink, 40mm Daisy white,  Large Rose bud, Princess pink stick pin, small pale pink Lily, 20mm pink Open Rose, 10mm Fuschia pink Open Rose, Rose/Pearl Organza trim,

Lots of gorgeous bling added. I think it is adding the finishing touches I love most about making

I added some distress ink to the air drying clay to make the pink butterfly.

Tilda with Big Big Rose

Good evening blogger friends.

Hope you are all having a lovely weekend. Are you crafting?

 

I had a lovely surprise last weekend when I found out that I had won the set of new images from Lili of the Valley for taking part in their Blog Hop. Thank you so much ladies - so looking forward to colouring them.

 

I will show you some photos later on this week of my craft room which I spent re organising all day on Monday. Russ bought me a new desk and I am thrilled with it. Takes up far less room than my table but has a better working area.

 

My intentions were good when I got up this morning but I never made it into the craft room. Went our for lunch.

 

The card I am showing you today is for a commission. I love this adorable image.

 

I have coloured this image with a mixture of Distress Markers and Inktense Pencils.

 





 

Lots of beautiful embellishments from The Ribbon Girl to add some gorgeousness including

Daisy Pale Pink, Large Rose Bud, Pink Tulip, Princess Pink Pin, Twinkle Ribbon, Rose Organza Ribbon. Ivory Vintage Lace.

 

You cant have a girly card without a touch of glitter which is on Tildas dress.

Patchwork Daisy

Good evening blogger friends.

I would like to say a big thank for all the anniversary wishes I received.  Russ and I had a wonderful time and yes I did occasionally turn my computer off!!! I have to say though I need to seriously get some sleep before I am back at work on Sunday. Part of our relaxation involved drinking a bit too much red wine and I'm afraid it relaxes Russ's jaw a bit too much as my goodness he can't half talk a load of old rubbish in his sleep. Would have been quite entertaining if I hadn't been so tired. 

Now I am back home I am looking forward to spending some time visiting your blogs and viewing your wonderful creations. Below is a card I made for a friend who has a 65th Wedding anniversary party this weekend. 

LOTV - Patchwork Daisy

The card blank is by Craftwork Cards and the papers are by Sassy Designs. If you haven't already visited them they are well worth a browse as there is a massive 88% off the papers at the moment.

The ribbon punch is by Martha Stewart which I purchased at the LOTV shop - such a wonderful place to visit. Viewing all there card samples is just paradise.
