A challenge card at last

We're back from a few days away and feeling slightly more refreshed!! Beth's impetigo has almost gone and Ellie is off school for the week so lots of nice thingss planned.
The children are still tired from their time away and chose to have a chill time this afternoon in front of the telly ... they ended up watching it through their eyelids!!!

So I made a card for some challenges:
Quixotic Cards - tag it
Simon Says Stamp - Whats love got to do with it
Just Magnolia - Love
Friday Sketcher - sketch
Allsorts - recipe - 3,2,1 ... I used 3 flowers (and buttons!), 2 patterned papers, 1 ribbon
A Spoonfull of Sugar - Springtime
Passion for Promarkers - buttons and bows
Papertake Weekly - Check this out (checks/gingham)

I colouredTilda in and then cut her out. I matted her onto oval dp and scalloped oval cardstock (I love my nesties!!!). The dp is edged with pink ink. I added yellow ribbon and a bow. I punched flowers out of the dp and added white buttons. Finally a tag stamped with the sentiment.


Recipe:
Stamp(s): Magnolia Happy Tilda; PB sentiment
Colouring Media: Promarkers
Papers: Forever Friends
Embellishments: punched flowers, ribbon and buttons from stash
