Ok - now that you are calmed down about that fabulous prize ... LOL
Here is my card -
I pulled out one of the new Magnolia Spring Stamp club images, and colored with my Copics - I just loved the little lady bug with Tilda in this o
When I got to looking at the ladybug - I remembered this paper from Heidi Grace with ladybugs in it... oh so perfect. I then found some other papers all in the same colors including that yummy felt dotted paper from 7 gypsies, and the background paper from Graphic 45. I matted the image with a piece of the same red I used for the base of the card. I sewed everything down with my sewing machine -

The sentiment is an epoxy sticker from cloud nine - I backed it with a piece of the card stock.
And for super special.. my flowers are gifts from my MIL - I was telling her how much I loved all the crocheted flowers I was seeing, when I showed her how much they cost to buy and she agreed to make some for me - Aren't they fabulous!!! (And don't forget that there are some in that prize offered this week!) I found some plain white little buttons for the centers.
I do hope you will join in this week! The sketch is great, and the prize is great and we love Magnolias so join in!
Friday almost the weekend!! What do you have planned? Me.. home mostly - the weather is suppose to be really nasty today and tomorrow - I feel some crafting time...

Simply beautiful.
Tell your MIL those crocheted flowers beat any that I've seen. She should sell some on Etsy so I could buy them. I love that ladybug Tilda. I think this is my favorite Tilda. I am new to copic markers(I've bought some but not tried them yet)and I would like to try with Ladybug Tilda. Where is the best place to buy Tilda's? Please email me at

Looking forward to donkeys and Libbie tomorrow, ms.cheryl

I love the flowers your ML made for you especially the red ones. Could you post the pattern? I found several patterns but your flowers are much nicer. TFS Ann Lind
A totally fantastic creation Michelle, so much fabulous detail, love the sentiment and the stitched panels. xx
Your card made me feel all warm inside! Remionds me of the dresses my granny used to knit me and Sunday mornings with pancakes... I can't even explain why, probably because a lot of stitching/crochet and gorgeous deep vintage hues.
