My First magnolia



I have been pondering all day with this card.  I must have coloured  Tilda a hundred times before I was somewhat satisfied/  I tried it with my Derwend soft coloured pencils.  And with the copics.  This one was the best of all.  I really have to get used to the copics and to do that I will follow a copic class online.

The paper I used was pretty papers from Holland.  The flowers were made with Nellie Snellens flower punches ( also from Holland, these punches punch and emboss.  The little mini rose is from Prima.

As you get to know me, you will find out I love ladybugs.  And on this card Tilda is deep in thought looking at the ladybug.
