Look what I found - Just Magnolia & hAnglar & stAnglar challenge week 97 - sketch

Good morning...huge massive apologies for not commenting over the last few days, I'm having a few problems at the mo which is stopping me from spending too much time on my laptop..I will tell you more about that next week, but I will do my best to catch up with you all I promise just bear with me for a while...look what I found yyyyyaaaaaayyyyy my little Bunny Magnolia showed up on my desk would you believe, tucked between two paper pads...was she hiding from the snow and hailstones we have here, I would if I was her and might do the same myself...I went for dinner with my lovely Dad last night and although it was supposed to be for his Birthday he insisted on paying no matter how much arguing I did, hes off to my Sisters (for Jane I have two sisters one in Newcastle and one in Belfast, just so your not confused lol) for the weekend to do more Birthday celebrating I hope he has a brilliant time...right now onto my card for today which is for our new challenge over at Just Magnolia & hAnglar and stAnglar challenge which is a lush sketch by our lovely Bev, instead of a layer for the circle I cut an aperture instead I think it works ok dosent it...I coloured my little lost Bunny with distress inks and teamed her up with this lush lilac gingham card I bought at the relaunch night at Crafters and Co, its quite thick card so I made the card blank with it and added more of the same kind of card this time in spotted lilac...I finished with some lilac satin ribbon and a mixture of Prima flowers (would you believe I found these in a bag and had completely forgotten about then, I slapped my own wrist for that) and some teeny button brads for the centres, I used a couple of Anitas butterfly stickers to finish...I'm having a chillin day today and might even get some crafting done...whatever your up to have a brilliant day everyone and when you have time pop on over to Just Magnolia to have a look at our amazing teams cards

Hi Mina. Gorgeous card. Love the colours and the aperture is a fantastic idea and suits the Tilda bunny so well. Got some of the gingham paper myself and thought it was really good quality and a bargain. Hope your dad enjoys his weekend and hope your problems are sorted very soon. Enjoy your weekend. Donna
P.S. I think it was brushed corduroy I used, going to sara's today to get other colours.
