Sending You Hugs for Just Magnolia and hAnglar and stAnglar Challenge



Hello Everyone! I've been busy getting ready for CHA the past couple of weeks. I'm so excited that I'm going to finally see some of the wonderful friends that I have met in the blogging world, including my dear friends Jacque and Bev!   Jacque and I will be working at the Magnolia Mini World/ScorPal Booth #856 on Monday and Tuesday, so if you will be attending the convention, please stop by and say hello!!

Today at Just Magnolia and hAnglar and stAnglar Challenge Blog, we are being hosted by the talented Jane.  For this Challenge, Jane has created a wonderful sketch for us to use!      
I hope that you will come and join us!! Your entry will give you an opportunity to be the lucky winner of a wonderful prize from All That Scraps or Ribbon Girl.

For my card, I used Digi Papers from Nitwit - Val'n Tine Collection. The very cute Koala Hug Tilda, which was a wonderful surprise this Christmas from a very sweet friend, was colored with Alcohol Markers, Prismacolor Pencils and Gamsol.  If you don't already have this image, Magnolia-licious has it available on Pre-order. The saying from All That Scraps - Amy R Stamps Heart-y Sayings was stamped on hearts  that were cut using Nestabilities Classic Hearts. The latches were cut using Sizzix Sizzlet Die and  then fingernail charms were added to them. The heart border was cut using and EK Success Border Punch. The flowers are from Recollections and Wild Orchid Crafts. The doily is from Wilton that I bought at Michaels. And, the ribbon is from my stash.

Thank you for stopping by to visit! Hopefully I'll  have some pictures to share with you from CHA and I still have to share with you the cards that I made for convention too!!
Have a wonderful weekend!

Big Hugs,
Suzan
