Token of Love

Hello! It's the first of the month and time for a new challenge at Magnolia-licious. Everyone is away at CHA (not me!), but Patti Jo has challenged us to use Pink, White, Hearts and Silver on our cards! No problem! And you have the whole month to enter!
There are so many great stamps in the new You Are So Special collection at Magnolia-licious! Of course, I picked one that doesn't seem to be in stock, but I'm certain it is on reorder! It is number 308 TILDA WITH MANY HEARTS.
I've tried and tried to get a clear photo for you! I need a new camera and lighting system! My apologies for the some what blurry photos!

I used Making Memories Gossamer papers. Patti Jo said we could use green as needed for leaves, but I pushed it a little and pulled the green from the papers onto my image. Just a little, okay Patti? I used the R family for my pinks-R81, 83, 85 and 89. Can you see the silver-it's a little token that Diana sent us last year and I hadn't used!

I'll link the Magnolia-licious Highlites blog though I don't see the details just yet! I know they will be there when Suzanne gets a chance to post them. I'm sure there must be a prize for playing along! I would like to give something away too! If you leave a comment I'll send you a card (by me) and a Magnolia stamp! (TBD!) I'll choose a winner on Saturday morning, Feb 5, Eastern Time. I will mail internationally!
Now, for some other business! My card also fits TWO other challenges!
Thanks for visiting today! (Snowstorm coming our way, in case you keep track of Western NY weather!)
Have a wonderful day! Cheryl

Oh MY! How beautiful your card is Cheryl!
This Tilda is my favourite from the new collection - but she was out of stock when I ordered :o(
I just love how you have put so many colours behind her and would love to know if you did the green and pink first or after you coloured Tilda?
Your papers are gorgeous too :o)

Hi Cheryl!
Your card is fabulous. that Tilda is such a darling. I must have her.
she is colored beautifully. Love the design of the card too.
I'm sure Patti Jo will forgive the bit of green but then again....just kidding hee hee.
I hope you are okay with the storm.
We are waiting for a huge cyclone here in Queensland that is meant to be hitting tonight. I live down from it but pray the people living in the area will be okay.
