Magnolia Spring Collection 2012, lazy summer days!

It's been a while since I made a card using my favourite stamps collection! so to put that right I have made this summery stepper card using the new Magnolia spring stamp release, I have used acetate and created a beach scene in the background, used Tim Holtz crackle paints (difficult to capture how lovely this card looks using acetate on camera!) have to say given the amount of rain we have this week it certainly cheered me up :)) hope it has you too! .....Have fun crafting folks!
