Midweek Magnolia show us your Fav colour

Hey lovelies, Its Midweek Magnolia time - yay! This week we want to see your favorite colours. So this week I am not showing you MY favorite colour, but my little Girl Beth's - Its Red! She loves Red, and likes to ask everyone what their fav is so she can tell them she likes red lol!

It was her birthday last month, so I made her card in her fav colour. She was having a Pirate party, so this is the card I made her.




I have coloured Tilda with Jolly Roger Flag in Distress Inks. The Papers are from Pion. I found this great ribbon in my local craft shop. I used a mix of embossing powders on the letters and number for a glossy shine. The shell is a joy crafts die.

Before I go I thought I would share a pic of her party. All the kids had a great time, this is hubby being the shark for shark attack, they are throwing 'cannon balls' at him lol!



I do hope you can join us, and maybe win a fab prize from Magnolia Sweden too :)

Yippy! Our New Challenge starts today :)

Hello my lovelies. Well the day is finally here. The first day of our new challenge A Creative Romance. I am so excited, we have some great guests and awesome prizes and challenges to come, I do hope you can all join us on our new venture.

So on to the card hey?! So as its our first challenge we thought we would stat off easy - Anything Goes, so as many of you as possible can join us :)





I thought I would start with a lovely Magnolia image. I have coloured up Tilda with flowing hair in distress inks. I was looking through my papers and this lush Pion paper jumped out, so I though this little Tilda fitted perfectly :) I have used Peacock Feathers for her dress I do love this blue. A little light frantage in shabby white around Tilda, and I found this fab bit of glitter ribbon in my stash from the Ribbon Girls, to pick out the gold glitter around her :)

No I do hope you can join us as we have some great prizes, this challenge is sponsored by the gorgeous Ribbon Girls. With a voucher to spend on some yummy goodies with them.  Thank you so much ladies xx
