Sorry to have kept you all waiting! I've been having a lot of troubles with my computer the past week... Ugh!! I do love my computer, but only if it works properly LOL!
On to the fun stuff!
It was my third week as April's Guest Designer over at the StampShoppe... The theme for this week's Blog Challenge (until Monday the 26th) is: Old and New (combine an older Magnolia stamp with a new one on your project)!
For my card I used Tilda with Bike (one of my favorites!) from last year's Lazy Summer Days collection and the new Floral Background stamp from the Spring/Hoppy Easter collection. I thought it would be fun to try something new, and so I made my first "tent" card! You can find a tutorial for the tent card here!
Here's a side view of the "tent":
And a close-up of the scene:
