Quick card....

I have a very quick card to share with you tonight. I have snatched bits and pieces of time, mostly while the girls slept today to put together this very quick card. I'm using Category 2 from the wonderful contest Diana is throwing over at Magnolia-licious. If you're interested in entering this contest, with fabulously generous gifts provided by awesome Diana, please check it out here!

Category 2 is to use Magnolia Mini's. I made this a shape card using my Spellbinder's Nestabilities Labels 10 die. For my card I used image #3027 Chicken Tilda and #268 Little Bunny Tilda plus #517 Bench and the Alota Friends banner. Scraps of dp and cardstock provided the backdrop for my card. I also used chalk to form the clouds behind my scene.

Here is the front of my little card...

Here is a bit of a side view of my card...


The inside is very simple...the sentiment is computer generated....

Thanks for stopping by my blog. I hope it inspires you to give the contest a try.

Hugs,
Barb

    A quick card?! It would have taken me hours and I still wouldn't have made something half as cute as this.
    Awfully sweet Easter egg.

    Absolutely darling scene, so, so precious. This is exactly how I envisioned the Friends clothesline being used. I am not so sure it would be quick for me. I would pitz and putz just doing the grass and it wouldn't look anywhere as awesome as your. Beautiful coloring and love the "staging".

    hugs, Diana
