Leaning Tilda with swirl

Good Morning

Today my card is with a beautiful Magnolia Stamp, Leaning Tilda, is she just not to cute?  A friend stamped her for me.


A close-up of Tilda.  She was coloured with my trusted Copic's.  I am not to happy with the hair, I will need to stock-up on some more Copic's to make sure that I can get the desired results.


This swirl was cut out on plain white card stock, I then used a Copic to colour it to go with my back ground paper and then I also covered it with Glossy Accent.  I just love the gloss that is added when you use it, makes the swirl looks so fancy.


Today is Friday and I am looking forward to the weekend.  My wish for you this day is, that you will have an awesome weekend filled with fun activities with your loved ones and that you will have lots of time to craft.

Edwin wants a hug

Good Afternoon

From a cold and windy Cape Town.  The mountain is covered by either low hanging clouds or mist, it is a lovely sight.  My kids always say that Table Mountain has its beanie on.  It is overcast and the rain is probably on it's way - just the kind of weather that make crafting so much more fun.

I made this card during the week and have only had time to upload the card now.  The stamp was coloured, for a change, with my watercolour pencils. 


A close up of my handsome Edwin.



I made this card to go into my growing stash, there is always somebody that needs a card for some or other occasion.  I have order myself some new Magnolia stamps - only 4 - but I am so excited, cannot wait for them to arrive.  My husband is having some difficulty understanding my addiction to the Magnolia stamps, but what can I say, they are just so adorable.

I will probably receive them next week some time.

Have a great weekend and enjoy the time spent with family and friends.

Hugs,
Marika
