Sneak Peeks & Tilda With Bowknot

 Hello lovely peeps,
I am on a weeks holiday, the sun is shining & my crafty mojo is running riot making me want to play, play, play, so I am one happy girlie right now :)
I have a couple of sneak peeks and also a card to share with you today.

First of all I have the huge honor of having two new Magnolia cards using the lovely Zodiac Collection exclusively featured over on the fabulous
Simon Says Stamp Store Blog.
Here are a couple of sneak peeks.
Please hop over and take a peek, I'd love to know what you all think :)
I really enjoyed colouring up these little cutie's. Thanks so much to our lovely Steph for inviting me to be today's guest designer on the fabulous Simon Says Stamp Store Blog xxxx

 I also have a card to share which is different for me as I have had my first attempt at using Polychromo pencils. I think lots of practise with these is needed, but I've enjoyed using them for a change. A big thank you to my lovely friend Elaine who has kindly loaned me hers to test out while I try and decide to buy some or not xx
 I love the softness of the colours with Polychromo's but I think I need to play some more before I make up my mind.
I've used cute little Tilda with Bowknot for my first attempt with Polychromos, and the papers I've used are by Maja Designs, love these.

I'm entering my card in the following challenges -
Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge - anything goes, 
That's me finished for today peeps, my new candy will be posted this week :)
Thanks for stopping by

Stencil It - Simon Says Stamp DT Card

Hello lovely peeps,
I am one very tired girlie and so in need of my holiday. I only have two long shifts to work and then I have 8 lovely days off & as much as I love my job I cannot wait to have a break. I realised the other day that except for the few weeks compassionate leave to look after hubby after his stroke that I haven't actually had proper holiday leave since last October & I don't even care what the weather is like I just want some time to chill out, play in my craft room & catch up with friends & family.

On to today's card -

My lovely teamies and I are featuring The Crafters Workshop products on our creations this week, if you have any we'd love to see them but as always it's not compulsory to use them to join our challenge.
I have dusted off some of my Magnolia's that I hadn't got around to using before & inked them up for today's card. I am not usually a messy inky girl but I wanted to feature two fabulous stencils & I have inked one using Vintage Photo distress ink & applied Gesso to the other for a nice textured look.

The copic colours I've used are -
 skin - E11, E00, E000, R12, hair E44, E43, E41, dress - W6, W4, W2, W0, cross - C3, C1, C00, shoes & bow - W5, W3, W1, rose - RV95, RV93, RV91 / YG99, YG95, YG93, flowerpot - E19, E15, E13, tree - G99, G94, G43
