The paper has a definately shimmer to it and I haven't quite decided if I like it or not. I have recently ordered X-Press It paper after taking a class with Sherrie Siemens at our local scrapbook store Scrap & Bean. For those of us in the Edmonton area, Kathy at Scrap & Bean is a great local source of Magnolia stamps, copic markers and a copic refill station!
I followed the layout at Just Magnolia & hÄnglar & stÄnglar. The new Little Girl collection from Echo Park are so delicious that I actually bought the complete 12x12 paper pack!
I love the colours - I can't decide if they are pretty pastels or bold brights - but they are definately Spring-y! The sentiment on the inside of the card was printed from my computer and is perfect for May 8th - Mother's Day! Remember to check out my Mother's Day Blog Candy on my Cooking with Mom post!
Tilda is coloured with copic markers and lovingly stitched with my beloved Husqvarna sewing machine. I've added some flowers from my latest Wild Orchid purchase and used my Spellbinders to cut out the ovals and the rectangles around Tilda. The butterfly is a Martha Stewart punch I finally found at Micheals - I've been looking for it for several months.

Gorgeous Shana, love your colouring, layout & stitching!! This has to be my favourite new image I can't believe I haven't coloured it yet! I like colouring on the Cryogen but I'm having problems when I take photos of my cards so I'm not sure on it yet, still undecided!
