Hello.

Today is Wednesday and so it's time for another "W"ednesday Post at the Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog where the DT gals take turns featuring Wee Stamps or Wild Rose Studio images on our cards/projects.  Suzi, Jane and I are participating in today's posting.

And so...this is my card.



For the shape of the card, I made my own template.  I searched for a picture of a scallop shell on the internet and then blew it up to the size I wanted--the width is just about under 6 inches. 
I chose a circle to cut around the image, a round shape--it's suppose to represent the pearl in an oyster.  Get it?  Yes, yes, I know that's not the shape of an oyster shell but a scallop shell instead.  Artistic license, you know...tee hee.  

I made this into an easel card. 





Oh by the way, those aren't flowers.  They're sea anemones--at least they're supposed to be...tee hee.  

This adorable image I am featuring is by Sylvia Zet from Wee Stamps...

and she is called Goldie and can be found at the Magnolia-licious on-line store HERE.

Check out the rest of the Wee Stamps Collection HERE.

Of course you can also find Magnolia stamps there--both full size and minis--as well as stamps from  Wild Rose Studios, Penny Black and Candibeans.   Magnolia-licious also carries cutting dies from various companies.  Have look at the *new* exquisite dies from Memory Box and PoppyStamps.  Prices are discounted, you get excellent customer service and what's more, you get to earn 2% credit to be applied to future purchases.  Cool!

A reminder that there is a weekly draw for a Surprise Package Prize just for commenting.  All the comments made on all the postings at Magnolia Challenge Blog and the related postings on the DT gals' blogs will be entered into the draw.
