Celebrate - Lion & Elephant Gift set #1 part 2

Hello and a wonderful day. We have had so much rain yesterday, it was really hard for me to get nice pictures of my DT cards. I must mail my stuff back to Magnolia Sweden. sniff sniff and are not able to get new pictures taken. The coloring looks all washed out. The bag was created for Cute Cards Thursday Challenge "Tag it". Below is a group shot of the entire gift set.

I don't know why blogger sometimes does not show up pictures in big when you click on them. I was never able to figure that out. So, just in case it does not work once the posting is up.. here is a shot zoomed into the coloring details.

Last but not least i would like to say thanks to all of you who have left me such kinds a comments on the Shimmerz Blog candy posting. The response to this amazing prize is just fabulous! Thank you ladies!

To decorate the back site of the gift bag i have used the same paper, some stitching and "one in a Million" sentiment stamp.

Stamps: All Magnolia Pet Collection 2009, Happy Birthday can be found in the Chasing Butterfly Collection 2009

Papers: Stampin up (Cholate Chip), My Minds Eye (Penny Lane) DCVW (Safari)

Embellishments / Tools: Stampin up, Martha Stewart (Arched Lattice punch), Making Memories

Coloring: Copic Sketch Markers

To color the Elephant i have used lots of Warm Grey makers rather the Cool colors because of the tone of the Designer paper. I stayed with the low numbers so the elephant did not turn out black and used R20 for cheeks blending with C1. Colors for Lion can be found in my posting from yesterday. Airbrushing was done with E51

I would now love to sent you over to dear Linda's blog "Linanna Designs" to take a peek at her fabulous blog candy!
