That's right we left sunny Blackpool and went to sunny Morecambe!! Look at those creases in my trousers - gosh!! We had a nice stroll round and then went to Silverdale and Arnside and had another stroll. Wasn't the weather fab? Shame about today though.
I've made another fall call following the sketch on Just Magnolia and hAnglar & sTanglar challenge:
I must say I enjoyed making this card because I love Magnolia stamps, they are so cute. This little Tilda is actually blowing hearts on the stamp but I masked that out and then used a little leaf stamp I had to make it a bit more autumnal and coloured her with Copics. The papers are Nitwits and I have used Nestabilities die to cut Tilda out and also for the lacey edging. The flower is a Marianne die and I have embossed the spacer on the top as it was silver coloured and I wanted it to be more autumnal, I also sponged the seam binding with some Spiced Marmalade Distress ink to change the colour to match more. I then punched out loads of little leaves to make it look like Tilda was standing in them. I will enter this card in the following challenges:
