Papertake Weekly - Anything Goes

Hey everyone!! Hope you're having a wonderful week so far! So are you full of chocolate?  We dressed up as zombies at work yesterday and it was too fun! Everyone looked awesome! I taught a Copic coloring class last night, so my costume went straight from work to class. Boy did I get some strange looks on my way to class. LMBO!  So anyway, it's time for a new challenge over at Papertake Weekly, and this week is one of your favorites. It's anything goes! There is an option of adding bling and sparkle if you want. We are being sponsored by Lili of the Valley!! Who doesn't love Lili of the Valley??!!  So anyway, this is what I've come up with.


Now tell me, are you not just totally LOVING the new Magnolia Sweet Christmas Dreams collection? They are in stock and available right now at Magnolia-licious!! Have you ever done business with Diana? Her prices and service are the BEST, and she has both the full size stamps PLUS the mini's!! Be sure to pop over and check it all out! You will be really happy you did!! And this new collection.....Oh my goodness, I love and want each and every one of them!! This little beauty is #3084 Tilda with Hellebores! She's on re-order right now and will be back in the store soon! She's one of those fabulous images that can be used any time of year.  I also used a Magnolia Doohickey die for that awesome flourish, #4 Leaf and Swirl die.


This card went to my oldest daughter for her Birthday. Tilda is stamped onto Cryogen White and colored with Copic markers then cut out with circle and petite scalloped Nestabilities. Those yummy papers were a gift from my friend, Regina, and they're matted with Bazzil cardstock.


The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts, and the leaves are courtesy of a Martha Stewart punch. Isn't that lace so yummy? It's more of my fabulous find in Illinois, and I just used my Bow Easy to help me make a bow with it. I don't know how I survived without my Bow Easy! LOL!


The sentiment is from Lili of the Valley and cut out with more Nestabilities, and the layers are machine stitched with my Kenmore sewing machine.  One more view of the card....


So that's it for me today! Please be sure and pop over to Papertake Weekly to see all the fabulous creations by my amazingly talented teamies! And then we'd really love it if you'd grab your paper and glue and play along with us! Thanks so much for stopping by to see me today and hope to see you back again soon! Hugs!

Copic colors:  clothes and boots YG91, 93, 95, 99 with T's to shade the white. Hair - Y32, E31, E33.  Skin: E13, 11, 01, 00.  Sorry, can't remember what I colored the flowers with.

I am entering this in the following challenges:
Totally Tilda - use leaves of some kind in your project
