Morning all!
It's rather chilly here in shropshire this morning!
I'm working 8 nights in a row at the moment so i'm not off till next wednesday 3 shifts down 5 to go, how naff is that lol!! never mind! I'm here with a brand new magnolia project this morning!
One of my new years resolutions is to try out new techniques i've not tried before including today's project!
Who's stolen my lines???????? I've wanted to try this for yonks i've seen so many beautiful projects coloured with no black lines i must admit the whole thought of it was scary! I'd actually coloured her a couple of weeks ago on a wednesday morning (yep those who know me know that's me colouring at 7am in the morning after a nightshift with matchsticks in my eyes) no idea how i held my concentration and i must admit it took me well over 2 hours to do!!! tho i really love the results! She's a new tilda i brought a while back 'Yoga Tilda' reminds me of the Wii game Wii fit 'I want to be a tree' haha!!!
I've coloured her with promarkers and flexmarkers (which i'm still learning they take some getting used to) but once ya get hang away ya go (my next learning curve is the pleats and creases eeek!!!
After me uploading my no lines tilda to my facebook page my lovely friends complimented me and wanted to see her on a card! I must admit it pained me alot it took me yonks to colour the last thing i want to do was mess it up! but after gathering some new stash (magnolia papers, punch and flowers) i thought what the heck let's go for it!!!
I love the new magnolia papers from the 2012 collection that's just come out they're soooo pretty and of course i so need some more!!! I added lots of gorjuss prima flowers and beautiful prima gem brads and pearl brads (which again sooo need more!!) along with some little tea roses from wild orchid crafts!
I recently finally got my hands on the two gorjuss butterfly punches from martha stewart which of course had to add in with some gems and sparkles and walla! my masterpiece is compleate! (No idea who this card's going to (if i can bear to part with it!) Please tell me i'm not the only crafter like that!! lol
Beacause i had no purpose of today's card i used a simple 'Just Because' sentiment which i brought yonks ago and of course in ture Carlyann style forgot i even had!! haha!!!
