CLP Winner and Changes

A BIG THANKS to all who have taken part in my challenges. I'm making some changes to my challenge, please note that from March on, my challenge will run on the first of each month making CLP Challenge a monthly Sketch Challenge. With four sketches a month, it's too much of a rush, lets slow things down with one sketch a month and enjoy the craft side of this challenge. :) Hope you're on board with me for this change, concern and/or comments are always welcome. :) See you back March 1st (tomorrow) for a monthly CLP Sketch Challenge! Thank you.

The Winner of the February CLP Challenge is:

Susie from White Ribbon Cards

An Easter Card

It's an Easter Theme week at Magnolia Down Under Challenge. I don't have any Magnolia Easter Stamps(yet!) So I have to be a little bit creative this week. Our sponsor this week is Simon Says Stamps who is offering one lucky winner a $25 gift voucher...Wow! I hope you will take part in this week's challenge and please remember to check out the DT's work while you are there. :)

This is Unwrapped Tilda from the 2009 Christmas Collection, I cover her present with lots of Easter Eggs. I was thinking of those cute little girls egg hunting in their pretty Easter dress and this is the scene I came up with, but Tilda got tired and sat down during the egg hunt. Hehheee :) I've colored Tilda with Distress Ink and added stickles to her head piece. The clouds in the middle can be pull-out for a personal note and photo, you can see a bigger image below.

I'm also entering this into a few other challenges listed below. Thanks for stopping by, wish you all a wonderful day.

It's time for another Magnolia Down Under Challenge project. This week you will see great sample cards from Group 1 (I'm in Group 2). I couldn't sit back and let this challenge pass me by! This week we would like to see those wonderful Easel Card. I've made many before and worry that you might get tired of my easel card. So here is a little twist to my easel card, hope you like this idea.

With the help of Prima vine flowers, flower soft, a combination of two MS french punches (layer it), a birdhouse charm, and of course Tilda with Lilac, I was able to capture the spring scene of Tilda in her garden.

Hope you enjoy this card, and don't forget to take part in MDUC this week. :)
