You cant beat a bit of Pink and Green - Just Magnolia & hAnglar & stAnglar challenge week 98 - Your favourite colour combo

Good morning everyone...wow you all loved yesterdays blog hop and thank you all so much for your fabulous comments, I will pay you all a visit today and thank you all for buying the Mo's image for Japan its been a huge success, you can see how much Mo has collected on her Facebook page...I'm not up to much today and I'm still trying to muster up the energy to tidy my craft room, if one or two of you want to volunteer I am sure I can find some stash for you as a reward, see how much I'm willing to do to get it tidied...I really must get my butt into gear and get it done...my card for today is for our new challenge at Just Magnolia & hAnglar & stAnglar challenge and this week it was our lovely teamie Michelles choice and she chose 'Your favourite colour combo', guess what I chose lol...well it had to be pink and green didn't it, I always think it is such a fresh spring like combo don't you. I chose this fab hAnglar from the new With Attitude set, shes great isn't she and she always makes me smile, its the strop I think

I coloured her with Distress inks and teamed her up with these lush Prima 6x6 Paper Pad Sparkling Spring which I bought from Bunny Zoe's Crafts I cut around the shaped paper and then cut the card around it, I think the shape works well don't you, I finished my card with a banner stamped with a sentiment, a bow and three yummy frosted Prima flowers from Simon Says Stamp...the sketch is from Sketch N Stash challenge and I'm also entering this for the Simon Says Stamp Birthday challenge...when you have time hop on over to Just Magnolia and have a look at the rest of the amazing DT's creations...wow...right I'm off for a coffee and talk myself into tidying...have a fantastic day everyone whatever your up to today

    Gorgeous card Mina. Love the stamp.
    Unfortunately I'm living way to far from you so I'm sorry but I can't help you tidying up. It would be fun I guess :-). But when you are done you will feel great. Maybe that will help.

    Hugs,

    Will you pay for my flight over...I could stay a few days, help you tidy then you could give me a personal 'ribbon' tutorial. I don't need feeding just use of the facilities!!! I just love that sugar-coated flower & unusual, original card shape...clever ol' you!! xxx
