It is the day we have been planning behind the scenes for some time - our first challenge for Marvelous Magnolia, I have been so busy with work and MM that I have been a very bad blogging buddy and not been to visit you all recently but normal service should now be resumed. I would also like to say a big hello to all my new followers too.
I would like to show you my first Marvelous Magnolia card.
1. We are a weekly challenge every Thursday.
2. We do not limit the number of challenges you may enter.
3. We do ask no more than 2 current entries, no back linking.
4. We do require at least one Magnolia stamp, but do not require it to be
a Tilda or Edwin, you may use any Magnolia stamp.
5. Entries are evaluated by the DT for the top 5 and all entries
are considered on the merit of the entry.
Our 1st Challenge is
"ANYTHING GOES"
Our very first sponsors are
So more about my card, I wanted to make a card and matching candle - I had never done this before but seen a few tutorials - it is so easy I don't know why I had not tried it before.
My image is Christmas Tilda with Cat and she is so cute, the papers are Pion, I did not like cutting them up I can tell you, I distressed the edges and hand cut and distressed the edge of the tag. Bauble die is Memory Box, and Heart is Marianne, flowers are WOC and I made one of my pins.
Here is a close up of the candle
I hope you like my card and candle and if you get chance please drop over to the Marvelous Magnolia blog and see the entries from the other designers, you will not believe who we have in our team and we also have the most amazing Guest Design member this week who I am sure you will all recognise.

Hi Suzie - what a beautiful creation, the image is great and the colours are absolutely amazing. I really hope that things are better now and that you are enjoying your crafting, you certainly look as if you are! I really must collect a few Magnolia stamps, as yet I don't have any and I love the images.
ReplyDeleteI must admit I have had a huge candle sitting on my desk for weeks now and I keep meaning to have a go making it into something 'pretty' but I wasn't confident enough, I will have a go now though!!!!!
