Just Magnolia Challenge Sketch



The new 'Just Magnolia' blog opened it's doors yesterday and the first challenge was a sketch. I've actually done two cards using this sketch as I wanted to try it as it was shown and then rotate it. I already had some Tildas coloured in, so it was just a case of picking some paper and embellishments!
I love the red and lime colour combo with 'Summer Tilda'... but I did spend quite a while fiddling about and in the end I think I have over done it a bit. There were a few gaps and things didn't seem to gel on it.
'Tilda in fall' has worked out better...so I thought I would show them together anyway....Two very different cards using the same sketch.

  7. Really lovely Sally - and if I had to choose a favourite it would be Tilda with Basket - I love the subtle colour combinations although upon reflection the red is perfect for summer and works to really pop the card - actually they're both gorgeous lol - Bridgette xxx
