Magnolia Pirates...look no flowers

Good evening dear crafters,
How are you?  I'm a bit fed up with our weather, one minute I'm toasty warm and happy, the next I'm freezing and needing the heating on again :o(
Please let us have a nice summer, I wouldn't moan through Winter I promise if we could just be guaranteed a lovely hot Summer :o)
Okey dokey on to my card...
 I've been getting messy this afternoon making this one
Lots of stickles glitter around the card and glimmer mist on the swirls & leaves
The papers are Maja Christmas papers but I've used the opposite side (no snowflakes lol)
The gorgeous ribbon is Union blue seam binding from The Pretty Little Ribbon Shop it's perfect for these nautical cards
Pearls are Kort & Godt
2 charms
Magnolia Jolly Roger Tilda with flag and Pirate Edwin
Magnolia leaf & swirl.

CHALLENGES
1) MAGNOLIA DOWN UNDER CHALLENGE ~ LORI'S GREAT SKETCH
2) LET'S INK IT UP ~ BLING
3) DREAM VALLEY CHALLENGES ~ CASE A CARD (I've used the colours from Mags B's card)


Just a little reminder tomorrow at 3pm The all New Tilda's Town Challenge blog starts, if you're a Magnolia fan you're gonna love it! 

That's it from me, I'm off to spend some time surfing round your blogs to see what you've all been upto. 
Enjoy the rest of your evening
love & hugs

Your card is just beautiful, lovely details, and nice to see Tilda and Edwin together. Very love colors, and wonderful papers, would not know they were Chrismas.. HUgs.
