Just Magnolia Week 64

Hi girls, thank you so much for dropping in here to have a look at what is on offer. I appreciate you taking the time and hope that your visit is worthwhile. This weather is beginning to be a joke. What on earth has happened to summer. I really feel for all you girls who have young kids on holiday from scheool. It must be a nightmare trying to keep them amused. can't help with the crafting.
Well I have made this card with the Just Magnolia challenge in mind. they provided a fabulous sketch to follow and this is my take on it. I inked up "Tilda with Blueberries" and coloured her with a combination of my Copics and Polychromos Pencils. The design paper is "Pitter Patter" from Making Memories. I was given this paper by Kathleen over at The Daisy Chain when she was over visiting me. I also used Bazzil Spot as a mounting card. the border is cut using a Martha Stewart border punch. The flowers and ribbon are from my stash.
I would love to read any comments you might have time to leave. Your comments are so encouraging and helpful. It is also nice to know who has been visiting my blog. I hope you have a great day whatever you are doing and that your crafting mojo is working for you.
Hugs,

  14. This is gorgeous Fiona. I love those colours and Tilda is beautifully coloured as usual. I've been neglecting my pencils recently, I seem to always reach for my Promarkers.

    Hope the weather has been better for you today (Tues). It was gorgeous here today and really warm, think we're due rain tomorrow though!

    Take care, Kat xx
