Mojo Monday #117 & Cupcake Crafts #70

Hi all. Great to have you here. I hope you find your visit worthwhile and find something to bring a smile or even get some encouragement for the mojo juices.
I am scheduling this post for just after midnight but as I sit and type this I am looking out of our patio doors and the snow is falling. Some of the flakes must be 2 or 3 inches in size, I've never seen flakes this big before. It has covered all the dog prints left in the back garden after yesterdays snow and it looks beautiful.
However there is a card to describe. I made this one with two challenges in mind. Mojo Monday gave us a great sketch to follow and Cupcake Crafts asked for a 5"x5" birthday card. I inked up one of my favourite stamps, Magnolia's "Dreamy Tilda" and coloured her as usual with my Copic Ciaos. The main paper is from the "No Worries Collection" pack. I have used a strip of "Tutti Fruitti" paper from Crafts House ato put across the middle of the card and put a lace ribbon on top of it with a narrow blue ribbon over that before mounting the image. The handmade flowers are all made from petals punched from the papers I used.
I enjoyed making this card and I hope you like it. You can, if you have time, let me know what you think of it by leaving a comment. I do so love reading them. Thanks for dropping by. I hope all is well with you and that you enjoy your crafting.
Hugs,
