Just Magnolia Challenge Week 62 - Special Monthly Challenge

Good Evening all my lovely followers! Hope you've had a fab weekend. Mine was a bit hectic, haven't really had much time to myself for my crafty fix hehe! I did, however, manage to squeeze this card into the mix. This week at Just Magnolia they are wanting to see Criss-Cross cards and they even have a tutorial for those of you who have not tried these before. Well I've not ever tried one but I must say I thoroughly enjoyed making this and will definately be using this style again. Thanks Jeanette!! I have taken quite a few pics, hope I don't bore you.
I used the gorgeous Lady Tilda as well as one of the butterflies from the Spring Kit. The other flowers that I have stamped in the background are from a Dawn Bibby set which I bought off QVC. Coloured in with Promarkers. The edges of her dress and the butterfly got a good dose of glitter and the frame around her I used stickles. Ribbon, flowers and pin are all from Wild Orchid Crafts.


I am also entering this card into A Pocket full of Posies challenge which is One for the Girls. Thanks for popping over and here's to all of you having a brilliant week ahead. Lotsa luv xxxx
