My Published Card

Hello everyone, the card I have to show you today was one of the cards that I had published in the second Magnolia Ink magazine. It fits perfectly with two challenges; Simon Says Stamp has a theme of distressing and Creative Card Crew Challenge 47 has a theme of vintage/aged.


Well, I really struggle to achieve a distressed look well, but when I reveived the DT kit for the magazine, it just said "distress" to me so I gave it my best shot and I was pretty pleased with how my cards turned out in the end. The stamp is an older Magnolia stamp from the Spring 2007 Valentine and Congratulations Collection and it is coloured with distress inks and highlighted with stickles. I have stamped all the edges of each element with different flourish stamps, also from Magnolia, and I have also distressed them with antique linen distress ink. I have used the Magnolia Old Valentine Letter stamp from the Valentine Collection 2009 to add some detail to a piece of card and also distressed it with antique linen.



Supplies
Card/Paper: All provided by Magnolia
Stamps: Magnolia
Colouring: Distress inks
Embellishments: Roses, stickles, heart, ribbon, pearls
Tools: Ink applicator tool, water brush

Stamptacular Challenge 49

Hello everyone, today over on Stamptacular Challenge 49 we have a theme of "You, me and baby makes three" and we would like to see cards or projects for a new baby. This week we are sponsored by Magnolia Down Under and they are giving us the fabulous prize of Ladybug Tilda from the Raising the Ceiling and Right Through my Heart Collection 2010.


This week I have made a matching card and gift bag set and I have used Bunny Tilda from the new Hoppy Easter Collection 2010. She is just the cutest and I think perfect for use on an easter card or a new baby card.


I have coloured her with copics and hightlighted her cheeks with my inkssentials pen. The DP I have used is a download and I have stitched around all the elements with my sewing machine. The ribbon and jewels are from my stash and the sentiment is computer generated.


For my gift bag I have altered a brown paper bag, very easy and so effective! I have co-ordinated everything so it matches my card.


This is an image of the back of the bag, the sentiment is computer generated. The rest of the DT have made some awesome cards and projects, so pop on over and join in.


Also, we have another Stamptacular Blog hop on March 28th. It promises to be loads of fun and there are many prizes along the way, so mark up the date on your calendar!
