Just Magnolia

This week at Just Magnolia there is a sketch for us all to follow. For my card I've used one of the new stamps from "Hoppy Easter 2010". I believe it's called "open gate" or something like that. Anyway, I like it alot and I even think there is an Magnlia tree there. I used to work at a place that had a couple of those outside the building and I decided they look like that. - smile -

I also decided to use this image on it's own and coloured it with my promarkers. I used almost only the warm greys. To top it of and get the Magnolia look I used almond and putty on the flower. They are really pale and got even paler with my blender pen. :)

The sketch


So let see how the card looks then. DP is from Basic Grey, Wisteria Lane. Pearls are as most of the time from Bunny Zoe.


It's getting a little late again and I've got an early morning tomorrow. New week, new challenges at the hospital. Looking forward to the work outs, and not! I want surgery for my right knee but the doctors don't agree. Have to try to make it stronger first and if that doesn't work then hopefully surgery. Long process I guess to get there.

A good night to you all!

Hugs,
Marie
