Sending you hugs - a circle easel card

Hi Everyone,



Time flies, doesn't it? Yet again it's my turn to make a card for the Divas by Design challenge blog :-) This week we're looking for Magnolias again, "Anything Magnolia". What a fun challenge, right!? 



Since I have been making a lot of square cards recently, I decided to make something a little bit different, and ended up with a circle easel card. A scalloped circle one, even, I went mad - what the heck! Since the weather outside was rather springy, I added some butterflies and flowers. 

And speaking of going mad, I also have a little confession to make - I have recently purchased a Wink of Stella glitter brush pen, and boy, I am ADDICTED! I think I have used it on EVERYTHING I have recently made... If you were wondering whether to get it or not (I got the clear one for now, since it's probably the most versatile one) - don't wonder anymore, just get one! :-)

Here's the card, I hope you like it:

Closed card

 And open

 A little close-up - can you see the delicate glitter effect?

And another shot :-) The clothes are paper-pieced, by the way

I am entering the card into the following challenges:
Inky Chicks - Special shape
Love to create - make it for the kids
Tilda's Town - Fussy and fancy
Stamp and create with Magnolia - Fancy folds
Inky Impressions - for the girls

I hope you come and join us over at Divas!
