Just Magnolia/ all sorts

You hoppers probably are thinking i am on a roll right now, having posted sooo many cards this week, mmm, no such luck the previous ones for the dt's have been scheduled posts, he he.  Looks like i am finally getting the hnag of this tchno thing hey?

Well let me say that i create best after a good rest, oooh a bit of poetry. bet you never expected that from me.
Enough already i geuss of my mindless banter, here is an easel card that i made and put on top of two large drawers that are going to very special friend in CT this week.  I had to use my sweet Tilda tha i got a while ago, slowly using all my new stamps, but got a few left to share.  So she is of course colored with copics then i had a bit of a rummage through my stash and found this hessian mesh and decided it would pretty good with the coloring i had chosen and i havent used natural colored pearls for a while so those came out in all their glorious sizes, and some of my treasured cherry blosoms.  for the drawer handles i found these beautiful roses that i had used to make serviette rings last year na dthese were the left overs so they got the distress treatment and stuck on the drawers as handles.  MMM i think i may have to keep this........maybe not.

Please leave me some feedback.......................
