Just Magnolia Sketch

Hi all!
It's a pretty miserable day here today - rainy & cold - so I have no excuse to avoid my cleaning, lol!! That is something I don't enjoy doing as there are so many other things I could be doing with my time, no guesses as to what!!!
However, I did manage some inky time yesterday afternoon and I got to do the Just Magnolia sketch challenge this week and what a fun one it was!  I used this new Tilda image, Swinging Tilda, and used some scrumptious new (to me) BG Eva papers which I just received. I coloured Tilda with Distress Inks and Tombow markers and also distressed the nestie circle with Aged Mahogany.
My wonderful generous mum sent me some gorgeous spacers which I received in the mail last week.  This is the first card I've used them on - I just love them!! The MS branch punch, ribbons and pearls finish up the card.  I moved the sentiment from the right to the left as I ran out of room on the other side!!
I also finished the inside and here is a little peek.  Pretty simple but I don't want to overdo it!
I hope the sun is shining for you where you are! I'm ready for summer to come and stay for a good long visit, not just a fleeting one!  Thanks for stopping by today and I hope you like what you see.
Take care, hugs

It is cold and damp here as well. It is suppose to get a little warmer, so lets hope so!
Your Tilda card is done up so nice, I love the ribbon and flowers and how you put Tilda into the oval. Once again Danielle, a great card. Have you got any Stamping Bella stamps? If you do, come join us on the sketches! You can win a 20 dollar gift certificate!

This is gorgeous Danielle! Love your colors! Similar colors that I did for my Tilda using the Roses on Paper color Challenge (to use pink, yellow and green)and FBW challenge. I always enjoy seeing your Magnolia creations and you inspired me to use one as well (Wish there was more time in a day to use all the stamps I have. LOL!)
I love the BG Eva paper, your coloring and layout! I too should be cleaning but I thought I would just do a little blog hopping first. Tee hee!
Have a great day!
hugs,
Chris
