Just Magnolia challenge

This week's Just Magnolia challenge is a sketch, and having had a craft free few days (all my challenge cards were scheduled posts) I have had a bit of time in mycraft room this morning. My mojo is having a break I think so I am not totally happy with this.

I watercoloured the image and cut her out and then matted her onto the squares which I cut withmy nesties. I used dp from the same pad for all the elements of the sketch. I punched the flowers and swirls and added pearls. I forgot the ribbon - doh!!! Mojo please come back soon!

Due to Beth being very poorly this week, and causing us no end of stress (9 hours in hospital on Wednesday) I have done no blogging this week, and can only apologise. Hopefully Beth is on the mend and normality will resume soon. I am on a training course all day tomorrow so I will start catching up on Sunday. Have a good weekend everyone.
Recipe:
Stamp(s): Magnolia Sitting Summer Tilda
Colouring Media: Distress inks
Papers: Basic Grey Eva
Embellishments: punched flowers and swirls, adheshive gems from stash
