This weekend, my daughter and I got together for some crafting. I worked with these two Magnolia stamps, and completed my first successful project using her Copics. Before now, I have always made a mess with them by going outside of the lines. This time, I tried the feathering approach and it worked out just fine. My usual medium is either water colours or Prismas, ...hmm we'll just have to see.
For the layout, I thought I would try this wonderful sketch at CLP. Their challenge lasts until the end of September, so why not give it a try.As usual, my DP is from my stash, something in keeping with my autumn coloring scheme. An MS punch has been used to create the orange lace pattern, while the scalloped border is a purchased die cut that I have inked and distressed.
Dimension has been added by cutting out and layering both the Tilda and the Garden Gate stamps, attaching them with foam tabs. Also, the flowers, which are from Fred She Said, something I won in a challenge a few weeks ago.
Here are some challenges which I will enter with this card:
All That Scraps - First Magnolia Challenge - Anything
Magnolia Stamp Lovers - Autumn
Just Magnolia Special Monthly Challenge #71 - Anything
By the Cute and Girly - Indian Summer
Tuesday Throwdown - #16 Celebrate Fall
