Just Magnolia meets Colour Create Challenge

Wow folks 2 posts in one day..well this card went just as I planned, I managed to get me head on straight for this one & its for Just Magnolia wk 20 which this wk. is ribbons/bows (note the url says BUTTONS & BOWS) but no seems like ribbons.. and Colour Create wk26 which is a colour combo of Ruby, Cream & Gold with an option of Gems.. I really like this colour combo so rich & classy reminds me Christmas but resisted a crimbo card. Just to say I have tried the glitter mists & found them to WET my embellishments (I am heavy handed tho) so have tried CC Spray & sparkle (this one is Gold) which I bought at Harrogate in March & am happy with the effect as it drys very quick & dosen't wet the paper..etc.. The paper has a lovely pattern on so click for a close up....I also went round the edge of the circle with a ruby coloured copic to show it up against the gold ..well enough chat this is what I used

Image.. Magnolia Tilda with Roses
Mediums.. Prisma's & Gold glamour dust..
DP... is from the Papermania Home for Christmas pack..
MS border punch, Nesties, L.em ash branch punch..
Card stock & rest from stash...

Thanks for stopping by & any comms. you leave enjoy the rest of the BH W/end...
off to blog hop now... Hugs Christine xx

Hi Christine... me again lol. I just came to answer your question about the water colour pad. I buy it from The Works, an A4 Pad, 18 sheets for 1.99. I find it works great for me, you may want to give it a try, it's also really easy to cut! :O)
Hope this helps!
