Magnolia #5 "Be Happy"


Here is my take on this week's sketch. I love, love, love these new papers from Pink Paislee. They are so fun and summery. I also used Bazill CS; Bo Bunny PP; Kaiser flowers; Katy's Cards pearls; gems from Michaels; unknown button; sticker from Deja Views; and my trusty sewing machine; Tilda is colored with Prismas and Gamsol, and some Tombow markers for highlights; and stickles.

I apologize for the picture quality today...very rainy and dreary today in Mossley, so I could not take the pics outside, and I'm back to work tonight, so I wanted to post this morning.

This is another teacher's card, the colors aren't very true in this lighting, and no matter what camera setting I used, it just didn't look right. This was the best one, but really the reds are oranges are much richer. Martha Stewart PP; Bazill CS; AC ribbon; unknown button; Cricut Plantin Schoolbook for the apple; Icon gems; and my sewing machine.
Last, but not least, another teacher's card. Bazill CS; and polka dot CS from Bazill; Imaginesce PP; ribbon from Michael's; Cricut Plantin Schoolbook Cart; unknown buttons; and of course, my sewing machine.

Thanks for looking. Gotta run...off to my Cardio Class: then a Swim Team picnic (under the rain shelter for sure); then a hockey game; hopefully grab a couple of hours of sleep; and then off to work. Ain't life grand.

Shirley.
