Magnolia-licious Challenge #9 - Top o the morning to ya!

Time for another Magnolia-licious Challenge! The challenge for the next 2 weeks is to use the color green on your card in honor of St. Patrick's Day. Here's a photo inspiration with the color:


So pretty! So here's my card:


So glad I got the chance to finally use this sweet Tilda! I got her from Magnolia-licious but she doesn't seem to be in stock right now but I'm sure she will be real soon. 

I colored her with copics (E11, E00, E000, R20, C7, C5, C3, C1, C00, YR23, Y23, Y21, Y000, YG67, YG63, G21, G20). I made the shamrocks using Spellbinder dies (heart shapes). My papers are from Basic Grey and Nitwits. Ribbon, button, sticker letters, and charm are from my stash.

I will enter this card at the following challenges:

Card Cupids - anything goes
Corrosive Challenge - green
Crafty Pad - use ribbon
One Stitch At A Time - use a charm
CES (Crafty Emma) - St. Patrick's Day/ Good luck
Alphabet Challenge blog - ribbon
Cardmakin Mamas - green
Just Magnolia - anything goes + glitter
Paper Cutz Challenge - St. Patrick's Day
I hope you liked my card today! Thanks for visiting and thanks in advance for any comments you may leave - I really love reading them! Have a great week!

Angela, another fabulous card. Do you know, you've made me realize that I bought this Tilda too and haven't coloured her yet? She's so sweet and you've coloured her in your usual flawless way.
I really thought you had a shamrock die until I took a closer look. So clever and creative of you. Love the matching ribbon.
Thanks for the challenge--loved it. I've made green my second favorite colour...LOL.

Hugs,
Norma
