Hi everyone, the Mods are continuing to celebrate the 2nd birthday of Magnolia-licious this week with a sketch created by Chris Sather. In fact all the activities for the Birthday Bash are being hosted by all the Moderators of Magnolia-licious. During this past week they had a wonderful Bingo game going with fun prizes to win.

I decided to make a card using her delightful sketch...

A close up of my sentiment (I distressed the edges of the white panel)



Here's a peek at the inside part of the card where you write a personal note. The little frog charm is so adorable with a bead for his belly, but he's a little hard to see. You can enlarge the picture to get an even closer view.



Here is a view of the compete inside of the card...



I hope you're having a lot of fun celebrating with us at Magnolia-licious. I can't wait to see what beautiful creations you come up with.

  3. Beautiful job of coloring Tilda. Her hair has a 3-D affect. I love that but have not figured out how you guys are doing it. :-) Very delicate papers and love the butterfly.
