Best Friends….

I’m back today to share my latest creation for Midweek Magnolia. Our new challenge is…

‘Let’s Get Sentimental’.
(Use a Magnolia sentiment along with your Tilda/Edwin)

I’m using the sweet Gemini Tilda image from the Zodiac Collection on my card today. For my sentiment I thought the ‘Forever Best Friends’ from the Animal of the Year Collection went beautifully. What better best friend could you have than your twin.

My image has been stamped onto Cryogen White cardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and coloured with my image with Copic Markers. I have used the following colours:

Skin - E11, E00, E000, R20
Hair - E55, E53, E51
Clothes - BG05, BG02, BG01

Here’s a close up of my image.

I have added a Magnolia Doohickey ‘So Wrapped Lovely’ heart tag and bow on the right.

Here’s the tag lifted.

I’ve used some Magnolia papers on my card and they are Vintage Blue Autumn ‘Turning Leaves’ and Eau de Cologne ‘Sweet Crazy Love’. I have machine stitched around the paper/card layers. A little lace and some pretty flowers finish off my card.

One last look.
