Just Magnolia Week 13 – Mina’s Sketch

Hi all , Its time for another challenge over on the Just Magnolia Challenge Blog, and this weeks challenge is to follow a fabulous sketch which has been designed by our very own Mina

******

Here is my take on the sketch

******

First of all i must apologise for being such a bad blogger lately, i have been soooo busy and dont have much time to get some crafting done, i really hope it does slow down soon as i do miss my crafting, i have soo many new goodies that i am itching to play with but haven’t had the time to *sigh* , But hey at least i did get time to get my Just Magnolia card done this week , better than no crafting at all eh

I adore these papers i have used on this card, they have been created by Summer Driggs and downloaded for free off her blog, Summer creates the most beautiful digital scrapbooking goodies and as soon as i saw these papers i had to have them hehe, they really are much prettier in real life and my feeble attempt at photography doesn’t do them any justice.

I was a bit worried though as when i was nearly finished this card i noticed that (to me anyway) it started to look like a Halloween card with the peachy orange and black colour scheme, so to try and stop this i added a few pink bits into the mix although i am not sure you can actually tell they are there as they are very pale colours of pink, so i am not sure i stopped it looking like a Halloween card hehe

Right I’ll stop rambling now and let you go hehe, but please do stop by the DT blogs to see their wonderful creations this week, and i do hope that you can play along with us in this weeks challenge
