Just Magnolia - Simon Says Stamp Special Monthly Challenge

Morning all, and a Happy Mother's Day to all you wonderful mums out there.  Just got back from visiting my very special one and am pleased to report that she was munching chocolate before we even left her.  Bless.  Think dad had his eye on getting some too but I don't rate his chances of mum sharing it with him lol!

This week's JUST MAGNOLIA challenge is their Simon Says Stamp Monthly Special, it's a very special prize indeed but I don't think I'm in with a shout this time, the card is too basic....


I've used the new Tilda with Flowerpot stamp and she's coloured with ProMarkers.  I must thank Mina for the inspiration of paper piecing Tilda's coat, I think it looks fabbie.  Papers are Craftwork Cards Vintage Rose.  The extra for this challenge is buttons - now somewhere I have a jar of teeny tiny buttons, but do you think I could find them?  Could I heck.  So I've used the smallest Classic Square Nestie to make some faux buttons instead.  The coral matting card is DCWV.

Throat is only a little bit better today so I think I shall be off to the doc begging for antibiotics tomorrow.
