I LOVE YOU

Wow, it's 3:00 Sunday afternoon and I am still not finished with my chores or my play. What's a girl to do? I did finish a couple of cards but, not as many as I wanted to finish. I colored a few more images and I did workout for about 45 minutes. Well, I walked for 45 minutes and I just glanced at the weights. But, a little is better than none at all. I have got to go to the library before they close, I have a book that is overdue and I know I am going to owe them money. OH WELL, such is life in the big city.

Now, on to my card. My card is almost any thing you want it to be. A valentine card, a thinking about you card, an I love chocolate card. You decide. This card will be used for several challenges.

The first is Friday Sketchers.
The second is Just Magnolia Love
The third is Colour Create Red, white, pink, chocolate. Optional heart/silver
The fourth is The Pixie Cottage the theme is Love
The fifth is Raise The Bar Challenge Be mine forever, something you will never give up. (my Cuttlebug)
The sixth is Cute Card Thursday In the name of Love

Wow, that is a lot for me. But, I visited a blog and they had used one card to cover 20 challenges. Where would I get the time?

I used two Magnolia stamps on my card. One is Tilda sitting with a Hat, which I bought at the Magnolia-licious Store and the jars of candy was from a friend. I have such wonderful friends. I colored with my Copics.

The Copics used were:
Skin: E00, E31, my E33 is almost dry, I have got to get some refills. If anyone knows the best place for this, please send me an email. I need help. I am not happy with the skin tone.
The dress and hat and socks: RV11, R27 the Spica glitter pens Lipstick and Blossom.
The candy jars: E02 several layers and the chocolate Spica glitter pen was used to outline the jars. I really do like how they turned out. On the lid of the chocolate jar I used E37 before I used the spica pen.
The ribbon is from my stash, the heart charm is from Stamp and Create. The first layer of DP is from the new set of My Minds Eye Home collection. The rich chocolate color paper is from Hobby Lobby it is handmade paper. I bought at 50% off last week. The next layer of pink is also handmade paper from Hobby Lobby. I used my Cuttlebug to emboss the I Love You.



Your comments make me want to be bettter each time.

  2. Hi Joyce, this turned out to be just so precious. Your skin tone looks great. I always used E11, E00, E000 and E0000 with R22 and R02 for the cheeks. Then I go back over the whole thing with E0000. Just a thought when you ordering.

    I love the hearts in your jar. They look just like those heart candies with the messages on them. Great job...hugs...Barb
