All About Magnolia

Hello everyone hope you all had a lovely weekend.
I'm running a tad late as I totally forgot what day it was. I blame my 2 sons as I went the gym with them this morning & I love the weights but I stick to the womens section but today decided venture onto the big stuff & OMG my arms are killing me.....I'm gonna know about it inthe next 2days lol.....but they say no pain no gain lol.

Ok so its challenge time over at All About Magnolia & this month we have an easy one for you all............
All About Your Favourite Colours
.....how easy is that, just make something in your favourite colours.
Now in real life I dont have a favourite colour but in the crafty cardy world I have 3, pinks, blues & lilacs.......so pastels lol. However I could not choose, so I used all 3 colours lol.
This is also a card I made for Tracy's next show over at Noor Design UK, so 90% of whats on this card you can get from Noor Design UK.

I added a Scrapiniec Birthday chipboard.......to be honest I forgot I had brought these they were hiding in my scrapiniec basket at the back still unopened.
I've also added some beautiful lace, flowers, apple pomegranates & berries & the leaves are a Joy Crafts die here.

I have used another of the new Emoji stamps, this one is called 'Cause I Love You' & I stamped her onto Fabriano watercolour & coloured her with mainly distress ink refills. Now I coloured her as soon as I got her but will try remember the colours.......
Skin - Vintage Photo, Tattered Rose, Spun Sugar & Fired Brick for cheeks
Hair - Antique Linen, Gathered Twigs
Top - Stormy Sky (pen as its a purpley colour) & Pumice Stone
Trousers - Weathered Wood
Shoes - Frayed Burlap (maybe)
Heart & Rose - Fired Brick & Hickory Smoke (I think)
Grass - 3 shades of green but cannot remember which ones sorry.
I also Pearl Dots around image & inside of rose & also pink shabby frantage.
I also covered the image in Rangers Micro Distress Glaze.

The seambinding was originally eggshell & I coloured it myself & shabbied it up lol.


I added the new gorgeous die range Tracy has got in, here is the one used here in the top right corner.
The die Tilda is on is one of my favourite Joy Crafts one & I have to say with the Joy Crafts die-cutting machine its cuts a breeze......love it even more now lol.

The paper is the new range from Maja Design, ok not exactly new, iot was originally released as Limited Edition & thankfully Maja Design has re-released.....thank you soooooo much Maja Design wooo hooooo. It is of course the Sofiero collection which Tracy has in in 12x12 7 the 6x6 pad & of course they introduced the Emphera this time....you can get the collection here, it really is so pretty so if you didnt get any last time be sure to get it this time!!
I've also used a sheet from another collection which is the one at the bottom, but they all go perfectly together.....like starwberries & ice-cream mmmmmm.

Well thats it from me but hope you will join us & show us your projects using your favourite colours.

Thanks for stopping by & big hugs to you all.
Lotsa hugs Vicky xxx
