The weather is more like the typical November weather now – cool
and windy with rain and perhaps snow for the weekend. While Joe has been
recuperating, I’ve been quilting during the day, card making at night. I have one quilt top finished, except for a
dark brown border…..which I still have to buy the fabric for….and I’ve started
cutting out a blue one. Tomorrow I will be busy helping to teach some kids to
quilt at the library…this should be interesting!
So, not much happening around here so I’ll get right to the card
I’m posting.
I really like how this card turned out – so pretty! The stamped
image is another old Magnolia image and it was coloured with Prismacolor
pencils, blended with gamsol and Wink of Stella added to her dress. All the
dies are from Spellbinders. The back ground is just very light purple and once everything was glued down, it was then glued to the white square card base. I tied
the bow and had a small piece left over so I added it to the top left corner
before gluing the stamped image on. The border is from a piece of cardstock and
I simply cut a piece off and then trimmed each hexagon before gluing it down.
The sentiment is a peel-off.
According to the Magnolia website, a small white
dot should be added to each cheek to bring the eye to the face……it does work,
but do I like it? Hmmm, not sure. Did you immediately look at her face? or did you not even notice? Let me know what you think. The jury is out on this one.
That’s all for a cool, windy Friday, November-20-15
Cheers

I DID look at her face first i think but not because of the white dots but because i think its a little odd she doesn't have a nose or mouth...???? But girlfriend i LOVE the purple!!!
