Magnolia

Today over at Penny's Paper Crafty Challenge there are two new items I've tried yes the first one is Distressing something I've loved on everyone else's cards apart from my own.  I'm a bit of a neat freak and love clean cut lines on my cards, but don't look at my crafting table in our office definitely not a clean freak and my husband is always asking me how can you find anything on that?  I seem to mange some how and yes I tidied it up yesterday.  But I'm still not sure about Distressing, I was Stressed more by making the decision to Distress.  Secondly I'm using a new sponsor this week which I haven't used before and found this beautiful Magnolia image which went perfectly with my Magnolia Lane design paper pad 6x6.  If you don't know me by now I adore colouring flower images.
