Just Magnolia GDT

There's a fabulous sketch by Bev for you to follow over at Just Magnolia this week and the prize is a £10 gift voucher from Crafts U Love to spend on anything your heart desires.

I really would like to re-enforce Bev's plea for you to switch of comment verification and replace it with comment moderation - it makes commenting so much quicker and easier and means we can leave more comments and get round to more of you.

I used distress inks to colour Princess Tilda and cut and mounted on oval nesties. The Background paper is from Kay&Co, the bottom half randomly stamped with a Tim Holtz text stamp. The inner piece is stamped with a background stamp of unknown origin. I think I've well and truly distressed every possible edge, (coming from my own distress at trying to sort out my computer problems - look at my creations and you'll probably see my mood ) The leaves are cut with a Woodware punch and I made the flower from mulberry paper using the EK Success retro flower punch - that look's pretty distressed as well.  The swirls are cut with Spellbinders floral accents and everything else is from my stash.

Nearly weekend again - yippee. It's May day here tomorrow (it's May day everywhere tomorrow...derrrr!!) but I've been informed that the shops all shut on the day itself here in Germany, not on the nearest Monday as they do in the UK, so I'd better do some food shopping otherwise I shall be on an enforced diet.

Hope you all have a great Bank Holiday weekend - plenty of crafting time.

hugs
