I'm having some real issues with the new blogger today. Both my posts for today suddenly disappeared, so I have to try to recollect them as best I can....

The lovely ladies at the  Midweek Magnolias wanted us to make a project wit two Tildas on.

Simply Magnolia: This weeks challenge was to use at least two magnolistamps.

I tryed to make a new kind of card this time, for me anyway.

I used papers from Prima Sun Kiss Collection, QK swirl and leaf dies, Martha Stewart punch. Charms, pearls and lace from stash.

Photographing this card wasnt easy...:)

The two tildas I used are: Tilda with wrapped heart and tilda sending loveletter.

I colored my images with this bunch of copics.

 Some details. I used a stamp from "Norsk stempelblad",  the words mean something like " sending you sunshine and lots of hugs..."

I left som room on the back for a personal message.
