Just Magnolia And Hanglar & Stanglar Challenge


Happy Sunday everyone!  Getting myself into Grand Prix mode here this morning, ready to park my bum in the armchair and scream at the tv for the Turkish Grand Prix ....... some people might think this an odd way to spend a couple of hours on a Sunday but I've done it for so many years now that it's just become a way of life in the Squirrel household.  It took the Toad some while to adjust to this insanity when we first married but even he joins in these days!

Anyhoo, over at JUST MAGNOLIA AND HANGLAR & STANGLAR CHALLENGE (isn't that such a mouthful?) there is an Anything Goes challenge with the option of stitching.  I took the plunge this week and ordered a Bee My Honey kit direct from Hanglar and it plopped onto the doormat yesterday morning - I couldn't wait to have a play.

As this little love has stitching on her frock, she seemed perfect for the challenge .... I simply echoed the stitching onto the papers and flowers.


Isn't she such a little cutie?  Painted in distress inks with a mixture of papers from stash.  EK Success medium and small retro flower punches and Card Candi to finish.

Off to cram in a couple of chores before the start of the race so catch ya later!
