Cute in Pink and Blue
My card today has been made using Martine's sketch for the Just Magnolia Challenge but hopefully with my pink and white daisies it qualifies for the challenge at Charisma Cardz which is "Delightful Daisies". I used a Magnolia Tilda stamp coloured with Copics, the papers were also from Magnolia - the "A Little Yummy for Your Tummy " collection. The ovals were cut using Nestibilities and I used a new Martha Stewart Lattice Arch punch. Finished with ribbon, button, pearls and computer generated sentiment. Had difficulty with the photo as the light hasn't been very good today.

The large Poinsettia is from a kit I purchased from Squiggle Stamps, I added some gold branches punched with Leone Em punch and finished with a button and some gold braid.

My Penny Black hedgie is coloured with copics and edged with leaf stamps from a tapestry stamp set and stamped with versacolours, I put this onto a torn piece of paper from Basic Grey Sugared.

The sentiment "just a note" is another Penny Black stamp, stamped in Versafine Sepia.

The background paper was from my stash and I cut some new Magnolia paper with circle and scallop nestibilities and added my Magnolia image coloured with copics.
