Good Morning, today is Sunday and time for a new Magnolia Down Under Challenge, this week we are celebrating the Boss Lady's Birthday sooooo you guessed it, it's a
BIRTHDAY THEME
How fabby is that?? and an easy one too, I mean gosh how many birthday cards do you make?? I think just about everyone I do is a Birthday one!! hehehehehehe Ok so here is my card, I have been checking out some of the other fantastic card markers out there and I've taken a little bit of inspiration from a bunch of people.....
Ok So I love how miss Blondie (Kylie K) puts a Big Satin White Ribbon on her card - they look totally Awesome!! Ooooo and Kylie also likes to use a bit of a swirl here and there!!! I love how Jodie (Jodie from Oz) does her flowers - so there's a bit of copycat thing going on... and Have you seen Kim Piggott?? OMGOSH her cards are a work of art, and I love how she loves to pop sparkly bits everywhere and of course a bit of sponging around the outside of the image!!! Oh and then there's the Boss Lady aka Kellie - Kellie loves Kraft and so do I, and Kellie told me that I would fall in love with the new Magnolia Doohickey Tag and Lace - guess what Kel, YOUR RIGHT - Lurv them:-)
