My first Magnolia stamp

I know what you must be thinking...what took you so long??? I have asked myself the same question and the truth is I really don't know. Magnolia just came into my head when I was thinking which stamp to use for hubby's card Valentines'. Edwin reminds me of Andrew somehow but when I compare the two there is no resemblance at all, funny that!!!I also ordered the Magnolia magazine which I would highly recommend, I had a quick browse there was no way my kiddi winkles were getting their dirty wee hands on this. Will have a better look when I know they are safe in bed lol!

My friend Kirsty asked me to make a Valentines for her boyfriend so here it is, hope she likes it!!

  4. The card looks fab, Clare! And the image and papers look great together. Love how the balloon is out of the frame, but it really looks nothing like Andrew!!! Having a nice and relaxing weekend, so far:0) Love Susie x
