Just because you’re you

Hi Everyone,
Today I have a Maggie card for you following the great sketch at Cute Card Thursday
CCT#179 - SketchI used one of my all time fav’s Sweet Tilda and coloured her with copics and I little bit of prisma pencils. Over at Magnolia Down Under Challenges they want to see texture, so I used this great DP, it’s like quilting, very hard to explain and I hope you can see in the photo, but the paper is sort of raised, any whoo I will stop trying to explain it and just show you the pic, I have had this paper forever and can’t even remember where I got it. I teamed it up with Making Memories Note Worthy.
Just because you're you  Everything on this card has had a really good dose of Walnut Stain distress ink, and I love how it gives that vintage feel. Just Magnolia are playing BINGO this week, which is great fun. I chose Ribbon & Lace / Flowers / Gems , the flowers & lace are from WOC and the pearls are from Kaisercraft, the sentiment is from Verve stamps. I also used spellbinder Heart circle die, and did some faux stitching around tilda, this is the first time I have done this, and didn’t do that well at it I am afraid lol.
InsideLots of room on the inside for a loving message to someone special. I think it’s important to leave plenty of room so the person giving the card can say how they feel.
Copic’s & Prisma pencils used
Hair E44,42,40 Shoe’s E44,42,41 pencil Dark brown , Dress R0000, 01,11,12 pencil Light umber, Skin E0000,000,00,R01.

  5. Yet another gorgeous card Cheryl ... Don't the Prisma pencils work so well with the Copics? Pinks and Browns together is one of my favourite colour combos. Good luck with the challenges. Julie:-)
