Pastel Magnolia card

Hi and thanks for dropping by to see my latest card. I haven't made a Magnolia card in a while so thought now was the perfect time to re-use my favourite Tilda stamp and colour her with copics. Just in case anyone's interested in my skin colours I mostly use E11, E00, E000 and then a little touch of E02 on the cheeks. The gorgeous sunflower paper is from Prima.

FWAB used:

Trent's fence,

Antique brown rhinestones,

Pearl pearls

Sun from Up in the Sky set
