Charming!

We've got a new challenge starting today at Lovely hAnglar or Sweet Magnolia.  This fortnight we'd like to see a charm on your project, along with a hAnglar & StAnglar or Magnolia stamped image.

Here's what I made



Can you believe that this is the first chance I've had to colour up this gorgeous stamp?  I coloured Tilda with my Copics and stuck to a simple combination of red and white.  I used a white gel pen to give her a polka dot bow to match the ribbon I used on the card.  The card base is white Bazzill and a used a Martha Stewart PATP to create the lace border.  The paper is from a collection by MME and the roses are from Wild Orchid Crafts.  Both the ribbon and the charm are from the Ribbon Girl, who are our sponsors this fortnight.

Lifelong crafters Mother and Daughter, Mary and Andrea were tired of having to buy full rolls of ribbon and lace when they only needed one metre.  Because they love ribbons and all things pretty, they decided to open their own online shop in 2010 and make small quantities of beautiful products easily available to all crafters. Mary owns the shop and runs it on a day to day basis as well as keeping the website updated while Andrea looks after the social side,  The Ribbon Girl Blog and the Design Team. They specialise in supplying small (or large) quantities of ribbon, twine, gorgeous vintage style lace and seam binding ribbon, tiny pom-pom and ric-rac trim, all sorts of buttons, fancy pins, a multitude of charms, pearl and crystal flourishes, wool felt squares, seasonal and unusual embellishments, mulberry flowers, sticky tape and accessories to card makers, crafters, scrapbookers and cake decorators. They stock only the best quality products and only offer for sale goods that they would personally buy and use themselves.
 
 
Look forward to seeing  you over at LhoSM !
