Just Magnolia And Hanglar & Stanglar - Anything Goes

When my most recent ebay purchase plopped onto the doormat this morning, I could not wait to get it inked up and, as the challenge at JUST MAGNOLIA AND HANGLAR & STANGLAR is Anything Goes, I thought why not.........

........I got a bit carried away and forgot totally about the optional glitter, but hey, the word is optional, and I couldn't really think of anything that I could get away with glittering once the card was made!


I've painted the H&S image with distress inks, and I've 3d his little cart with two more layers, one for the cart and the next for the wheels.  The papers are all from the MME Fine & Dandy: True Blue collection.  These colours are just screaming to be used for male cards.  Sentiment is from a little Hero Arts set.

Might have known that it was going to be one of those days - the car battery is dead, again, poor old Toad's i-Touch crashed and burned, and I've just broken a tooth on a Galaxy Counter of all things.  That'll teach me for having sneaky chocolate before dinner.  Guess that'll be another ££££ appointment coming up.  Hmph.

Hugs, Squirrel xx

    Hi Squirrel, sorry to hear it's not the best of days for you.

    Love your card. That little boy is so cute and the DP works really well for a male card.

    This is gorgeous Squirrel!! I seen some of the H&S stamps selling on eBay - they were VERY popular!! Brilliant colouring of the stamp using DI's - you have a great talent!

    I love this patterned paper - like you say, it is totally perfect for male cards. I love the sentiment - it fits so well.

    Thanks for sharing! :) Lou Mac. xo
