Magnolia DT- "You are One of a Kind"

Another card featuring stamps from Magnolias new School, Travel & So Heavenly Collection 2008. The So Cute! stamps I used in this card are ..SC08 Tilda with slate.....SC08 School Slate...SC08 School Pencil. The sentiment is from Stampin Up.

Magnolia stamps can be ordered from the Magnolia Store.......Phebe at The Town Scrapper.......and Diana right here

I colored the images using prismacolor pencils (oms) and h2o's. Acrylic white paint for accents.

Tilda and the slate are on foam dimensionals. The sentiment is embossed with white embossing pdr. I put a little sparkle on the flowers.

Accesories....flowers, rafia. glitter, foam dimentionals. SU punch, lace, buttons, martha stewart punch, stitching.

Well we are off..........I am scheduling a few posts for when I am gone......I will be so anxious to see every ones beautiful fall creations when I get back. We had a great time on the weekend....with all our kids at home. The weather was beautiful and we had a nice bon fire.

Thank you so much everyone for your well wishes for our trip and our Anniversary!!....Big Hug to you all!!!

I am including my sketch for this card at the bottom of this post

....And to close.....Thanks for looking!.. and for all your Lovely comments!!

Hugs,

Ila
