Mad For Markers - Brown Hair challenge

Happy Saturday everyone!  I love the bright colors of this card (sorry it's blurry...darn camera) and of course the little cutie has brown hair (make sure you check out the current challenge).  I always tend to color my girls with brown hair so this one was pretty easy for me :)

Magnolia - Special Friend

I don't ever play with my magnolia stamps enough so last night while watching Survivor, I decided it was time to pull out one of my few (I know I need more ;)) Tilda's and colored her in.   I'm still working on my coloring technique with my copics but I think it still came out pretty cute :)  I did have a run-in with my yellow marker where it looked like colored water was coming out of it--grrrr!!  I've never used it so I have no clue what was up with that.

Here is the outside of the card:

Picnic Tilda (Magnolia Stamps)

I've finally have fallen for Magnolia stamps :)  This is one that I have had colored in for a couple weeks now and just didn't know what I was going to do with her (plus I needed to find the right papers to use with her).  I had originally started out wanting to put a tree behind her but I wasn't liking the way it looked so I left it off (after playing with a different image).

The image used was "Picnic Tilda" and "Picnic blanket", both of them can be found at Magnolia-licious.  The papers I used were from my scrap pile so I don't know who they are from.
