You're So Special



Hi everyone,

Here's my latest Magnolia card, but with Edwin as the main character ;-)



To make this card, I used different paper combinations like Prima Marketing, Webster's Pages, and My Mind's Eye.

Edwin was colored with Distress Inks (Antique Linen, Walnut Stain, Tattered Rose, Vintage Photo, Aged Mahogany, Broken China, Faded Jeans, Tea Dye, Pumice Stone, Fired Brick, Old Paper, Weathered Wood).  And I also used Crackle Paint (Picket Fence) to distress the edges.

This card is also part of my entry for this week's challenge @ Magnolia Down Under Challenges.

And on a side note...  this past Saturday was my Distress Inks Class @ Scrapper's Place.

Scrapper's Place Events

There where many adorable ladies, some of which learned for the very first time how to color with DIs and some others practiced what they already knew...


(Sorry about the images... they were taken with my cellphone.)


This finished one is from my dear friend Maga...

It sure was an amazing experience to teach, to make new friends, to see old friends, and to spend some quality time with these talented gals :-D

Now... before I go, don't forget to drop by TOMIC and check this week's challenge:  Easel Cards.

Thanks for stopping by!!

Muy bonita la tarjeta. Me gusta como te ha quedado la combinación de tonos rojos 'jugando' con las banderas, el globo y la estrella. El papel de música es muy bonita. Enhorabuena!
