Blooming with sweetness

Happy Valentine to all, but specially to my one and only beloved one.
Websters Pages papers are most delightful and so soft in their make-up, they really suit the Magnolia stamp.
Colouring with colour pencils.

The flower is handmade from old magazine papers.

A safe landing

My next card is for someone who is going through a rough time. Life isn't always easy and the hard times may bring us low, but as long as we remember that every cloud has a silver lining and there is a God who watches over us. so here is to you who struggles...

The sentiment is from TCP studio and stamped on a Magnolia die cut tag.
The flowers are by Prima and altered with Tattered Angels spray mists.

The tide always turns

Hello and welcome to my first card for the month. I used this lovely angling
Tilda with a cut from the Cricut cartridge Animal Kingdom. The papers I used are from K&Co Wild Saffron. The image is coloured with Polychromos colour pencils.

I do love the shading and blending possibilities I have with these Polychromos pencils and I had fun applying several shades of Stickles too.
