School Fun

Hello, have you had a good weekend so far? I am so lucky.. .:-) I finally found the picture of the card i made for the Pretty Pressings sketch a couple of days ago. I thought i added the card into the Magnolia envelope without taking a picture of it :-) (iam getting oooooold) I just found the picture on the harddrive - perfect this way i do not have to publish a card using the same image as used on yesterday's card.
I used on Edwins vest Copic color G99 - it is the same color i used on Tilda's dress in "Winter Wonderland" and i think this is one of the most difficult colors to work with. For some reason i can not blend this color nice and it "streaks" more than the other colors. If i go over it to get the streaks out it get very very dark. I like the color but it is challenge for me to use this marker especially when i have to color small areas in.
Now for the winners of the Magnolia card kit. Random Integer Generator has picked:

6 CraftyB from the U.K.
123 Mada from the U.K
56 Andrea from Germany
31 Wendy Patross
149 Sharon from the UK

Thanks to everybody else, for posting here and on your personal blogs!! I appreciate it very much. I have to go now and buy my sons school supplies :-) love Claudia

    OH Claudia!!! You know I love the frilly, flower girlie cards you do, they are sooo pretty. But I tell you this one may be up on my top 3 list! I love it, it has so many perfect embellishments! The calendar, the watch for the clock the colors! LOVE it and so happy you found it on the hard drive.

    Good luck with the school supply shopping... talk about stress!

    I love all your cards but this one is so different. You're so talented. Wish I could do all that you do. I found your site from Irina. Can you tell me where the clock and the calendar came from?
