Sketch Saturday, Magnolia Stamp lovers and a Few More

This card was made with both Magnolia Stamp Lovers and Sketch saturday in mind.  Its been ages since I used one of my Magnolia and I love "Tilda with Rose". 

Before I get onto my card, yesterday Daniel was in a car accident on the way to school in the taxi. He's no injures just a bit shocked. Police were on scene and the car was a bit if a mess. So my mojo was not up to much and late last night I popped in my craftroom and thought I experiment with colouring. I've not done much feathering with Copics but tried it out on her hair and a tinge on her dress. Alot of the shading was done by taking a dark colour off with the nib of the lightest Copic and shading where I wanted. Enjoy this technique and not done that for a while. Now if I had sat down and planned to make this card it would't have worked but I often find doing my own thing unplanned results in a better outcome, funny that.

Zoe had a lovely weekend with 3 of her school friends staying over, a trip to Frankie & Bennys and a lot of noise. Loves her new Ipod, but I don't think I'll be doing a "slumber party" for a few years yet lol
