Smile - Just Magnolia & hAnglar & stAnglar week 103 - sketch by Dena

Good morning everyone, I came onto the computer last night and though I will do some hopping and wow you could have slapped me with a kipper...did you see how many comments I got on yesterdays blog hop post...omg how incredible is that thank you all so much...my wonderful Dad comes back from his first holiday today, oh boy have I missed our coffee days putting the world to rights, but I'm sure he will discover how to have world peace and give all the politicians hell today...I love him to bits...my card for today is for our new challenge over at Just Magnolia & hAnglar & stAnglar challenge which this week is a stunning sketch by our wonderful Dena...I chose this beautiful Magnolia Butterfly Dreams collection Beautiful Tilda coloured with distress inks and glittered for mine, this and the fab pearls and lilac Butterfly Dream Magnolia paper is from Bunny Zoe's Crafts, the gingham is from Craft Creations and I finished with the beautiful Smile sentiment, sorry haven't a clue who that's by as I threw the wrapper away, a ribbon and bow and some fat cream pearls, I'm entering this for the Amber's Crafts & Stuff Ribbons and bows challenge, the Flutter By Wednesday butterfly, fairy or Angel challenge and the My Mums Craft shop Glitter challenge...well I finally got my craft room finished, I bet you thought I would, oh yea of little faith lol so I just need a quick hoover and I can play again...whatever your up to today I hope you get to spend it with people you truly love

    Beautiful card, Mina - you "do" purple so well, I can't work with it at all!! Lovely image, delicate touches, all gorgeous!! I haven't done the Mo blog hop yet, so I didn't look at yesterday's post, that would be cheating lol!!! But I'll get there sometime over the weekend.

    You have chosen a beautiful motive! Also the Designpapiere I very like!
    Then the beads and the splendid ribbon are the icing on the I!

    Nice that your father again is back from his vacation. Now I look back on your reports of your common experiences. I've already missed it!
