Published in Magnolia Ink

Hi

I am so excited and proud - William has a card featured in the latest edition of Magnolia Ink !!!!

How amazing !!!

He made an Easter Card and I emailed it to Magnolia Ink for their "Kids Corner" page - I was so pleased to see that it had been published - if you have a copy, you can see his card on page 69.

He's so happy - he's walking around with a huge grin on his face :o)

Here's the card he made

He did an amazing job of colouring the image using Promarkers - here's a close-up:

He raided my stash for papers, flowers, the button, ribbon and doily and then die cut the leaf using a Spellbinders Die.

Here are some photos of him making the card - I love how hard he is concentrating.

So, as you can see, I have some serious crafty competition to contend with - how can I possibly beat having a card published in Magnolia Ink ?!!!

Thanks for stopping by today - I hope you like William's card.
