Tilda and Edwin Skating to the Color Throwdown

I guess that I have been rediscovering my Magnolia stamps this week! These were images that I received from someone...not sure who, and I finally put the copics to the paper and came up with the card. The image and the background are so detailed that I didn't want too much detail in the card to distract from it. I did have to dust off the Exacto knife to get into the tiny little curves. The Tilda and Edwin image was separate, and I cut it out and popped it up on the Park image. I think that I was intimidated by these two images at first, but it was fun once I started!

I paired the images with this week's Color Throwdown #78, which was to use Pink Pirouette, Soft Sky and Kraft together...so soft and delicate, like a snowflake!

And, I diligently used scraps to create the card!!

Beautiful card! I just love this image and never got a chance to get the stamp (every time I tried to order it they were sold out...now I'll have to go looking again! *sigh* lol).
