Hi girls. Glad to see you here again today. It makes my day to know that you are visiting my blog and I can only hope there is something here to bring pleasure.
Well the minor operation went fairly well yesterday and I am looking forward to a bit less backpain when the injections kick in - they normally take a day or so before I really start to feel the benefit. I would like to thank everybody for they best wishes left in comments and emails yesterday. It's a great comfort to know so many people care.
Well on to the card for today. This was made for the Just Magnolia challenge where we had to follow a fantastic sketch this week put together by Jay Jay. I have used magnolia's "Waiting Tilda" and coloured her with my new Polychromos Pencils. I usually do Tildas with my Copics but I thought I would try the pencils this time. I find using them very relaxing. The papers are " Paper Flair" by Paper Rack and mounted on plain brown card. The image panel is mounted on Brown Bazzil embossed with a Cuttlebug die. The embellishments are all from my stash.
I hope you like this card and can perhaps find time to leave me a comment letting me know what you think. I really appreciate your views and anything you have to say is helpful.
