Sweet Tilda at Just Magnolia


Happy Friday again to everyone!! I hope that you are ending a magnificent week and are looking forward to a very productive and fun weekend! Thank you so much for dropping by to check out my Just Magnolia contribution this week!

The lovely sketch this week is by the very talented JayJay from Germany and I just know that you will enjoy playing along with us using your favorite little Maggie! There is a very nice prize offered by Kellie at Magnolia Down Under so please come on over and join us!! I can't wait to see your interpretation of this fun sketch!!

I used Bazzill for the base, all matting is SU, and the DP is all from the Victorian Romance "Mixed" Paperblock by Creamotion. Sweet Tilda was colored with Copics, cut out, and propped up with dimensional tape onto a beautiful Nellie Snellen framed rectangle which was a special gift from the lovely and extremely talented Christina. Thank you so much, Sweetie...I just love them!!!! Each of the gingham checked stripes is bordered by MS Eyelet Lace punched trim. The flowers are all from Jayne at the wonderful Crafty Feeling shop in the UK and the brads are from the BG Sugar Rush Collection. To the red gingham bow I added a tiny tag and sentiment from SU. Finally I added red gems to soften the corners.

Thank you so much for your visit and I hope you will come back often! I will have a special surprise for you on Feb 23, so be sure to drop by!! And, for a hint, I will be participating in my very first Flower Soft challenge on that day!!!! Best wishes for a delightful weekend and thank you all so much for EVERYTHING!!! Great big Maggie hugs!!
