Just Magnolia, Challenge 12 – So Charming

This week over on the Just Magnolia Challenge Blog , the challenge is to use some charms on your creation
******
Here is my take on the challenge
******

oooo i love these papers, they are by Craftwork Cards and they have a gorgeous pearl finish to the paper, soooo yummy
, i bought these ages ago and i am only using them now hehe , i was clearing out my paper drawer and stumbled across them, lucky eh
I got this adorable Tilda image last week and got colouring her straight away, she is soo cute ain’t she, i coloured her again with my trusty Prismacolour Pencils
, i have to admit though i did attempt to colour her with my Pro Markers but eeek i made a complete mess, i have compleatly lost my touch and i soooo need to practice with them again
anyho i hope you can join us with this weeks challenge, there is a fabby prize on offer for the lucky winner, (ooo i so wish i could enter myself
) be sure to stop by the DT blogs to see their wonderful creations and why not say hi while you are at it, i am sure they would love to hear from you
Oh yes before i go, me gots a new light tent to play with for my photos, what do you think, does the photo look better ???, i also added a fab cloudy type border around the edges, i have seen these about and decided to try it for myself, i love it ,to me it draws the eyes to the card and not the background which is what i love most about it
, so what do you think do you like my new photos ???? feel free to say no, i wont bite your head of hehe, i do appreciate your comments good and bad

Love your card! Your coloring is superb!!! I really like the blur that you put around the card. I am like you and it draws the eye right on the card where it should be.

Hi Martine
This card is so beautiful – I love everything about it – the image, the colours, the flowers – everything!! Funny you should mention the photographic effects too, as I was wondering how you had achieved this, even before I read your description – it really does draw the eye in, and looks absolutely fabulous. Don’t suppose my camera thingy will do that, but I’m jolly well going to have a look!!
Love, Sylvia xxx
Ooooh fab card, just love the sweet image and the colours and papers are divine!

WOW, Martine, this is fabby! Colors are great together and the photo is perfect…..I think it’s so true how you now concentrate on just the card and not the background….I need to check that out!
