"Thank You" in Pink

Hi everyone. I've been busy today working on my "Thank You" cards. This is one that I particularly like. I used the "Tilda with Peony" stamp and colored her with Copic markers. You gotta love those copics. To go with the sparkle in the background DP, I used smooch on Tilda's dress and the peony she is holding. Then of course I had to color the corner flower embellishments and smooch them to match. I really had fun working on this card. I will get better on listing the specific materials used in my cards as I continue with card making (one of my New Year's resolutions).    Happy New Year !!

Vintage Blue Roses

 I thought this little Magnolia Tilda would be a perfect topper for the vintage looking blue rose paper. I really liked the colors used in the paper and copied them with my Copic markers on Tilda and her flowers. I especially enjoyed following the sketch by Lisa on the "Cute Card Challenge # 144". You can see the sketch and challenge information here.  Here is my entry, enjoy.

Snowman in Blue

I have wanted to use this paper with my new Magnolia Snowman stamp. I like the way it turned out with all the glitter and sparkle.  I am entering this card into the "Just Magnolia Challenge Blog # 86". This week's challenge is sponsored by 7 Kids College Fund with a $20 store voucher for the prize.  The sketch provided for this week's challenge was fun to work with. Check out the challenge here.
