Thinking of you

For my card i was inspired by the big summery flowers i have received through Magnolia to make a card with. I just went the easier way and picked some paper out of my DVCW "Citrus" pack to bring the card together.
Gosh.. i have had this cute little Magnolia kite stamp one day ... and gave it away because i needed a fast gift. I totally forgot about it and looked everywhere to find it until i remembered. When i look at this Tilda running, i think it would be just sooo PERFECT, why did i give it away :-). Well, no kite anymore, so i punched some butterflies out and painted those with Shimmerz "Blingz" Under the Sea. Looks really super shimmery and does match the papers fabulous. As you can see Tilda's arm did not fit into the oval... so i cut her out anyways and just colored on a second image the arm in, cut it out and glued it on the oval over the spot that was cut off.

Stamps: Magnolia Spring kit .. if you missed to purchase this wonderful kit in Sweden available through Magnolia-liocus.
Embellishments: Shimmerz "Blingz", flowers sent by Magnolia, Sweden
Papers: Stampin up and DVCW
Punch: Fiskars "Apron Lace" and Martha Stewart
