Just Magnolia - Not Quite

Soooo, I kinda mucked up and got this challenge in too late for Just Magnolia but I like the way it turned out so I'm sharing it!  LOL!  Here's Bev's sketch:

and here's my card!  I have wanted this Blueberry Tilda forEVAH!  And I finally got it!  You can find it on Diana's Magnolia-licious Store and it's even in stock!  I also had to try this big butt flower. OMG these are HUGE so I suppose whoever is the recipient, won't be someone I have to mail it to.  LOL! 

I stickled a LOT of the edges and if you click on the picture to make it bigger you can see it better. I also stickled her Apron and even the leaves on the blueberry patterned paper, which I also bought from Magnolia-licious store. The dirt is Barbara Trombley's Earth Elements and this one is called "Roots". It's much cuter IRL.

Sweet Thing

Sorry for the somewhat crummy picture but I was in a hurry to get this in the mail.  I made this shadow box for my niece who recently turned 3.  Usually you give toys but I wanted something she could just enjoy looking at for awhile so I glittered the heck out of everything on it.  She picked up on the fact that the little girl is her.  Cute!

The paper was from a Gina K freebie and the stamp is Sweet 60's I think? I can't check the Magnolia store as it's down right now but if you really want to know, send me a comment and I will hunt it down for you!  The slice of cake and heart also came from Magnolia.  I used my Quickutz lettering on giltter paper and lots of Prima Flowers.
