Another post from me today

This is another card I have made today to enter into various challenges. I have followed a lovely sketch by Arianne at Sunday Sketch and Stamp challenge blog. The image is a Magnolia stamp called Tilda in the sea which I have coloured in with promarkers and paper pieced her dress. The backing paper is from a 6 x 6 pad of papers I have by Crafts Too. The tags have been punched with my Whale of a punch Deckled tag punch which I have put together with a green Basic Grey brad, and stuck a Happy Birthday peel off too. The backing card is from my craft stash and the green brads in the top left hand corner are also Basic Grey large brads.
I am entering this card into the following challenges
1/ Just Magnolia http://justmagnolia.blogspot.com/ where the theme this week was "Summer"
2/ Stampin for the weekend http://stampinfortheweekend.blogspot.com/ Iy chose the Song "Time of the season" as Summer is a season and this card is quite summery.
3/ Secret Crafter http://thesecretcraftersaturdaychallenge.blogspot.com/ where the theme this week is Pink and Green as I have used lots of pink and green on this card.
4/ Sunday Sketch and Stamp http://sundaysketchandstamp.blogspot.com/ as I have followed Ariannes beautiful sketch
Thanks for looking x

    Wow welldone on getting all 4 challenges in :) This is super cute I love the images and the pink and green are very summery so it is perfect for "time of the season" I love the way you have done the 2 tags it just adds a bit of a different effect to having just one on its own.

    Lovely card Julie, love the choice of paper you've used to do the paper piecing with, and you've colored the rest of Tilda wonderfully, Great addition with the tags, and it certainly fits the title Time of the Season, so well done.
    Thank you for participating in the "Stampin' for the Weekend" challenge this week.. Good luck and we hope you'll continue to join in on the challenges on a weekly basis. Have a wonderful day.
