Magnolia-licious Challenge #8

It's time for another inspiration challenge over at the Magnolia-licious Challenge blog. Here is our photo inspiration:


Isn't that just the sweetest nursery? So I was inspired by this photo to create some baby favors.




I made the baby rattle favor by using my spellbinder circle dies and attached the circles to a rectangular strip of paper.  I used Tim Holtz papers and embellished with Wild Orchid flowers. This adorable Magnolia image is called Sleeping Baby Tingla and you can find her at Magnolia-licious.


I colored this image with the following copic colors: R85, R83, R81, RV11, RV10, E0000, E000, E00. I used some Diamond Stickles on the wings and added some flat back pearls, ribbon, and button from my stash.


I saw these sweet baby shoes favor in my recent issue of Paper Creations Magazine and thought they would be perfect for this challenge. They were easy to make and so fun! Aren't they cute!?

This project will be entered into the following challenges:

Bearly Mine Challenge - ribbon and pearls
Scrapbook Sisters - baby baby
Crafts and Me Challenges - time to spread your wings
4 Crafty Chicks Challenge - fairy/angel/butterfly
Just Magnolia - love you (who doesn't love babies?)
Crazy Challenge - baby love
Lexi's Creations - flowers
Stamping Scrapping Challenge - pink

I hope you can play along with us this week at the Magnolia-licious Challenge blog. You could win a gift certificate to our favorite Magnolia store Magnolia-licious! Thanks for visiting me today! Have a great week!
