Good morning peeps,
I don't know where the last few days have gone! Ali & I had a craft day on Thursday which was lovely, full of the usual waffle & gossip & I'm sure it was the first time we didn't end up yelling at each other, or did we, we do it so much I loose track lol.
I had the bright idea of "cataloguing" my Magnolia stamps by stamping them all twice (one for reference & one for masking) & storing the images in a folder according to type e.g standing Tilda's, sitting Tilda's, backgrounds etc to make it easy for me to see them as several times I have bought duplicates not realising I already have them, but I had a bit of a shock when I realised what a mammoth task that will be! Four hours in after lots of "aaaah she's pretty" and black hands from the ink I think I'm almost half way through stamping my standing Tilda's, and I think I may need to buy a bigger folder lol.
Today I have a card to share which is my
DT card & this fortnight our challenge is
I am also blogging my card as a midway reminder for
as there is one week left to play in our challenge
Ingredients -

Medium - Copics
Papers - Magnolia
Flowers - Magnolia & Wild Orchid
Seam Binding & Button - The Ribbon Girl
Sparkle - crystal glamour dust

I wanted to give Tilda's skin a darker colour to make her look more authentic, & for those that want them here are the Copic colours -
skin - E15, E13, E11, E00, R85, R83, hair - C7, C5, C3, C0, Sari - RV63, RV00, RV000, RV0000, elephant - C3, C1, C00, C000, R85, R81, leaves - G94, G85, G91, butterflies - RV55, RV02, RV00, GOO, B52
I'm entering my card in the following challenges -
TOMIC - Tina's sketch & fabric (cheesecloth)
Card Makin' Mamas - something old ( all stamps)
As I have been a terrible blogger while battling the side effects of my new painkillers & you have been so lovely leaving me encouraging comments I have a little thank you to share which is more mini candy, a brand new Belles & Whistles stamp
Fairy Wishes

What a fabulous card. Your colouring is superb. I would very much like to be entered into your draw for the stamp. Thank you for the chance to win.
Wow - love you bright colors of blue and pink ! Have never seen those stamps before (it's been a while since I bought Magnolia, kind of trying to use the ones I have - while I still remember what I have... LOL). "Cataloguing" the stamps is always a good idea. I have but my mounted stamps on the wall on small shelves, but the unmounted is a different story. Having them mainly in black binders bought from Sunday Int (but I think they are no longer manufactured) and labeled outside, but...
Would very much like to get a ticket in your lovely give-away. Thanks for the chance. (I have a candy too if you want to join)
Have a nice Sunday !

PS - about problems with comments. I had the same problem and changed the settings like you did. BUT I think the problem is/was related to Internet Explorer (IE), I changed to Google Chrome and have no problems now....

Gorgeous card Mandy! Love the colors and the stunning details. I've been away a while myself so I'm not sure what the pain meds are for, but I hope they are helping. I'm on muscle relaxers myself and somedays it's all I can do to get out of bed, so I know how it goes. No need to enter me in the candy as I already have her, but I wanted to tell you how pretty I think your card it. Hope all is better soon!
