Jingle Jangle Tilda

I'm somewhat relieved this card isn't for a DT challenge because I wrote down NOTHING.  LOL!  No supplies list or Copic colors but if you do want anything let me know.  It's just a quick post because I really wanted to share this one. I love playing with those reds and browns.


I'm going to play along in the following challenges:

Midweek Magnolia's - Home for Christmas - Top 3

My last post before Chrismas so I just want to wish all of you Happy Holidays and all the best in the year 2013.  I'm so glad I get to hang around longer and play with all my friends.  LOL!  Sending hugs to everyone!!

Merry Christmas to the Dunbars!

I have been waiting and waiting and waiting to share but I wanted to make sure it got to the recipient first and FINALLY!  She may as well live in Alaska for crying out loud!  Ok I'm done buggin you Chris.  LOL!!  

Look at that!  I used my favorite winter snowflake punch from Tim Holtz.  The star was from Kaisercraft (I think), the little stars are from Southern Ridge Trading Company and I covered them with white acrylic paint and then with that Viva Decor stuff.  Oh and the paper is from Bo Bunny.  Thanks Buddie!!  If you click on the picture you can see the glitter on the ice better.  I had a hard time giving this card up.  LOL!!  But I knew it was going to a great home. 


I'm going to enter my card into the following great challenges:

Happy Birthday Sheri!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, 
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR SHERIIIIII,  
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!

Can you imagine having a birthday so close to Christmas?  I thought November was close enough!!  Well I hope you have a wonderful day and have fun doing at least 3 of your favorite things today.  Maybe more.  LOL!!  Enjoy!

 Another image I colored not too long ago from my sister's stash.  She is so stinkin' cute! 


 I've used lots of gorgeous embellies from Wild Orchid flowers, Southern Ridge Trading Company (the chipboard reindeer), rose ribbon and gorgeous Bo Bunny paper.  And don't you just LOVE that border?!  It's a new Magnolia Doohickey die called Christmas Lace and still available at Magnolia-licious. 

Just a quick post to share as I have quite a few more to share with you over the next few weeks.  I will get to share some of my latest Christmas creations as people should be getting them soon.  Yay!! 

Enjoy your day!

Merry SC Christmas Simone!

(If you are looking for the Magnolia-licious Highlites blog hop and scavenger hunt click here)

I made this pretty in purple card for my sister and she just loved it!!  Funny thing is we both used the same Saturated Canary image called "Candy Canes".  Check out the one she made for me.  GORGEOUS!  I used some Magnolia papers and the Magnolia "Slender Firs" that I got for my bday this year.  I even added some Martha Stewart Texture to the tips and covered with glitter.

I used this amazing sleigh cut by a new small business called Southern Ridge Trading Company.  I painted it white and then added the glitter and it just sparkles!  The flowers are cut from my Silhouette and the wooden snowflakes are from Studio Calico.  Yup they've been on my last few cards and I'm addicted.  LOL!  Love my good old standby snowflake border die from Tim Holtz. 


I'd like to share my card into the following challenges:

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR VISITING ME!!

Magnolia Tag Blog Hop and Scavanger Hunt

WELCOME WELCOME!!

Are you enjoying the hop/hunt so far?  It's been awhile since I've been in one and I forgot how much fun they are!!  You were probably brought here from Sharon's blog (didn't she have the sweetest card?) but if you want to start from the beginning and join in you'll have to go back to the Magnolia-licious High-lites blog 

We have 2 challenges going on within this hop.  One is a scavenger hunt and the second is a challenge and there will be $50 prizes to Magnolia-licious store for both!  Worth playing for?  I think so!  We would love to see you play either one, or even better, both of them!   

So we are working with INTERACTIVE TAGS.  I've snuck a tag into the top left corner of my card using a Magnolia Doohickey, as well as the tag I cut from my Silhouette on the bottle of Bailey's. 


My image is Tilda with Ribbon Heart Scarf and I used the new Snowy Forest Doohickey dies and covered them with Twinklets.  I also covered the wooden snowflakes from Studio Calico and covered them with Crackle Accents.  If you click on the picture for a close up I think you can see it better.


Again I used the Snowy Forest die with a sentiment from LOTV for my Bailey's tag.


So your next hop is over to Norma Lee, who's work I am a personal huge fan of!  I'm sure she'll have something incredible just waiting for you.  

THANK YOU FOR VISITING!! 


Stamps: Magnolia "Tilda w/Ribbon Heart Scarf and LOTV sentiment stamp.
Paper: Magnolia "
A Christmas Story 2012"
Embellishments: Studio Calico wooden snowflakes, misc lace and ribbon, wooden reindeer from Wild Orchid Crafts, bag for tag, Crackle Accents and Twinklets.

Magnolia-licious Pink Christmas Challenge

I LOVED THIS CHALLENGE!  

Or should I say I loved how my card turned out?  LOL!  It took me about 4 hours to color this thing.  I KNOW!!  I'm soooo slow!  Sometimes I think the most time consuming part is actually picking your colors out but it was fun!! I thought these 2 images were so cute together.  Looks like the reindeer was a little escapee and Tilda went to grab him to take him back in.   Very much like my indoor cat.  LOL!   

I used "Tilda w/Little Rudolf" from the Christmas Story 2012 collection and paired it up with "Welcome to a Sweet Christmas" from the Sweet Christmas 2011 collection.  I was happy to color it up as I got it last year and never had a chance to until now.  I also used the new "Slender Firs" doohickey dies from Magnolia-licious.  I am just in love with these things!  They go well with the "Snowy Forest", which you'll see in my next project soon.  hee hee


Again I got to provide the inspiration picture for this challenge.  Funny thing about that!  I picked it in September thinking that some of the new Christmas papers coming out would have pink in them.  NOTHING!!  I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT!  But I finally found some digi papers from Bearly Mine Designs and used "Christmas Delight".  Very pretty!!


You should see all the PINK at the Magnolia-licious challenge blog.  EYE CANDY FOR SURE!!  Pop on over and take a peek and give the girls a little luv if you have time.  Again Diana will be giving away:


Also, you should see all the colored images at Magnolia-licious store.  Makes a big difference on seeing how an image might look after it's colored or maybe help in giving you and idea on how to color something if you're stuck.  

I'd like to enter my card into the following challenges:

Magnolia-licious Challenge

 Photo Inspiration Plus Glitter

Welcome to another challenge at Magnolia-licious!!  This week we are asking for you to use the photo inspiration (below) and GLITTER!!  I used silver Stickles on each red layer but you think you can see them?  Hardly!  I also have white Glitteritz all over the textured snow I laid down but you can't see that either.  This card was photographically challenged right from the start.  Is that a word?  LOL!


I used "Tilda on the Roof" and "Snowy Roof" from the new Magnolia from "A Christmas Story" collection.  You'll even see most of the images in this collection colored up so you can either see how wonderful they are when they're colored, or take a peek for coloring your image.  That's what I do.  hee hee 

I got to pick the inspiration photo for this challenge but what I had in mind vs. what came out was NOT the same thing.  LOL!  OH well but that's okay.  I hope you enjoy it!


I just want to share with you that Diana is having an amazing sale on the mini stamp storage binders and this is what Jacque had to say about that:

Birthday Card For Simone

At first I had trouble with this one......not so sure it appears that I did but yup I did.  LOL!!  Again, it was a color combo I don't use often but I think I should.  A little challenging but it worked out so nicely when it was finished.  I embellished the crap out of it because it was for Simone and she puts them into shadow boxes and mounts them on her wall!!  She has 5 or 6 now and it looks pretty cool.  Go big or go home!  ha ha ha ha!!


Have a great day!!

Happy Birthday Barb!

Happy Birthday Aunt Barb! 

Lots of birthdays in October and November for me so here's another one.  Oh ya, more to come!  At first I thought using this mustard colored paper would be a challenge.  OK IT WAS!!  LOL!!  Jeez!!  But the more I worked with it and added the blue, the more I liked it.  Definitely a bit of a different color combo for me.  


This is the sketch I used that Chelsea has for this month's challenge.  Is that cute or what?!! 


I'm not entering the challenge but just wanted to share the kick butt sketch.  I will tho enter these challenges:

Happy Birthday to my MIL

A card I made for my MIL's birthday, that I may have previously mentioned, is on the same day as mine.  Or maybe mine is on the same day as hers.  LOL!!  My sister (my twin who I also share today with - LOL)  had a few of these digi's printed off while I was visiting here so I grabbed one and started myself.  Oh they are just so sweet!!  Even added some glitter to that cute heart balloon.  Different papers and color combo's for me but I think I like how it turned out. 


Short post today.  :)  Have a great day and a wonderful weekend!!

Magnolia-licious Challenge

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Welcome to another challenge at Magnolia-licious and this week we'd like to see your Happy Halloween cards!!  I chose to get Tilda dressed up as an orange ladybug.  I even looked up pics on the internet to make sure some ladybugs were orange and YAY I found lots.  LOL!!  Ok so maybe she was already "Ladybug Tilda" but it still makes a good costume.  She's available in Diana's shop but only as a mini right now.

A friend of  mine gave me those ghosts - aren't they CUTE?!  Thanks friend!! 


Here is this week's photo inspiration.  I love this picture!!  If you get a chance, you'll have to check out the other Halloween inspiration that my teamies have come up with at the Magnolia-licious challenge blog.


And Diana will randomly draw a winner for a special sur-prize!!

I think this week I'm going to enter my card into the following challenges:

Magnolia-licious Color Inspiration

Well you may have had a sneak peek at my card earlier today but here it is again with more info.   LOL!!  Welcome back to another challenge at Magnolia-licious and this week we have a color challenge for you.  

Red, Brown and Yellow

At first I was freaked right out but then my sister sent me some Bo Bunny "Apple Cider" papers and it was perfect for this challenge!!   I paired up these papers with the cutest sister/brother stamp combo called "Cuddly Siblings" (in stock) and "Butterfly Background #2", which is not in stock but it's possible that Diana would bring it in if you asked.


Isn't this just gorgeous?  I meant that the inspiration photo.  LOL!  I did lean more towards the brown of the challenge but you can play any way you like. 


The girls did an amazing job over at the Magnolia-licious challenge blog if you need more inspiration.  Also Diana will be giving away one random special surprise and you can bet that it's well worth your time. 

Diana is now taking pre-orders of the new collection A Christmas Story.  They will be in this week and sent out a few days later.  OMG are they ever stinkin' cute!  I got far too many but I love them all!  There's also some gorgeous papers in this collection as well.  Just sayin'.  :)

Hope to see you out this week!!


Stamps:  Magnolia-licious "Cuddly Siblings" and "Butterfly Background #2"
Paper:  Bo Bunny "Apple Cider"
Embellishments:  Bo Bunny "Wraps" and brown flower, Petaloo leaves, raffia, misc ribbon, Bo Bunny badge, TH Tag, Wild Orchid Crafts flowers and Momenta metal leaf. 
Punches:  Spellbinders flower
Copics:  I wrote them down and now I can't find them but let me know if there's a particular combo you're interested in and I'll figure it out.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SARA!

Just a quick post today with a card I made for my stepdaughter's 17th birthday (yikes!).  LOL!  It's so hard to make teen cards no matter a boy or girl but I was relieved with how this one turned out.  It is much easier to use an image that's fun to color!


I'm just going to join these few challenges:

Deep Ocean Challenge - More Than 2 Colors - easier challenged then done by the way!  Hence why it's a challenge.  LOL!

Wild Orchid Challenge - Anything goes - don't you just love those WO daffodils? ***

Simple Stories "Handmade Holiday" Christmas Cards

I LOVE THIS PRODUCT!  I love anything from Simple Stories but I will share more later about their way of creating albums and wow it's a whole lot faster than anything I've ever used!!

They also design gorgeous lines that make your scrapbooking faster but I'm here to show you how you can use the line for making some quick cards.  This weekend I made 6 cards by using 2 double-sided patterned papers and 1 page of stickers.  I am hoping to get 2 more out of what I have leftover so I think that's a good price for so many cards.  Also, I'm happy that I have made 6 cards in one weekend as normally I make only 1 because it's so detailed.  NO MORE!  Well, there will be a few but this year I don't want to DREAD card making so I'm going to simplify!  VOILA!!


A little hard to take pictures of glossy paper but it give you an idea.  :)


The only extra's I used from my stash were the cardstock, hemp twine, a little ribbon, some buttons, a bit 'o bling and a few punches.  That's it!!  Now I only have to make another 33 cards.  LOL!!  Oh well I have a good head start.  :)

Have a good week everyone!

Magnolia-licious Inspiration Challenge

Welcome back for another Magnolia-licious challenge!  This week we want to see you use your
BUTTONS!

I thought about going easy and just using the buttons as a couple of embellishments but when I decided to make my first Christmas card of the year, WELL!!!  This is what happened!  Ok I may have gone overboard with them but you don't have to.  Buttons anywhere and however many on your project will do.

Isn't this image just the cutest?!  Christmas Tilda w/Cat and they're part of a small "Little Christmas" collection expected in stock again Oct. 2nd from Magnolia-licious.


If you need any inspiration you can find LOTS at the Magnolia-licious challenge blog.  Also, Diana is giving away a "Surprise Gift" as a random prize,  RANDOM so you have as good of a chance as any others.  I love that!!


Annnnnd Diana has a sale going on and all mini sentiments are $2.99 so a great way to build up your mini-sentiment collection.  Or maybe think of it as stocking stuffers - for yourself!  LOL!!  

I'd like to enter my card into the following challenges:

Enjoy your week!

Paper:  Bo Bunny "Snowy Serenade"
Embellishments:  Buttons, misc ribbon, The Hobby House Crafts "JOY" charm and some buttons, MS white texture for snow, Glitter Ritz and doily.

Magnolia-licious - Color Inspiration

I'VE BEEN MAGNOLIA-LISCIOUS'ED!!!
WOOOOOO HOOOOOO!!

Well I'm SUPER excited to be posting this and many more challenges with the design team from Magnolia-licious challenge blog.  It's such an honor to be amidst the boatloads of amazing talent this group has.  Thank you so much for inviting me!

Here is my first card as a DT member using the color inspiration photo.  I took a bit of everything from the image below. 


Loved the flowers on the wallpaper so I added some gorgeous pink Wild Orchid flowers to make it pop.  My take on the challenge was the pink color, the flowers but also adding a bit of black.  I normally tend to steer clear of this color when it comes to my Maggie's but I just love the contrast.


You MUST check out all the other gorgeous creations over at the Magnolia-Licious challenge blog.  I'm sure you've seen some of these ladies designs before but my eyes just can't seem to get enough of them.  LOL!!

PRIZE!!  ---- Diana is so generous and always gives out a $25 gift certificate to her amazing Magnolia-licious store for EVERY challenge.   This is where I have bought probably 95% of my Maggie collection as well as some of her extensive collection of die products.  Huge selection of so many things!

Oh and did I mention you have 2 weeks to enter?  The challenge runs on the 2nd and last Tuesday of each month.  Tons of time right?  ;)

Diana has all kinds of specials going on:
The new Australian Collection available to preorder
The Little Christmas Collection
Turning Leaves Collection including mini's
The Mini Halloween/Autumn Collection

MagnoliaInk Magazine - 2012 Turning Leaves - I just want to mention that the prices of these magazines may be increasing so it might be a great idea to just get a subscription.  They are so full of inspiration and all kinds of wonderful eye candy gathered into one place and right at your fingertips.  Makes for handy reference.

Have a wonderful week and thanks for visiting!

INGREDIENTS
Stamps:  Magnolia "Autumn Tilda w/Pencils"
Paper:  Magnolia "Turning Leaves" and Sweet Crazy Love paper

Smile

My SIL is leaving for another year of school today so I thought I'd put together a small care package for her.  This picture was a candid shot of us when we were camping July long weekend.  I'm sending it along with her so when she's having a bad day this might make her smile.  Even if it's only on the inside that's ok.


I made the ribbon flower and added a Tim Holtz button in the center.  Love that!


Here I made a shabby-chic doily flower using the Tim Holtz "Tattered Florals" die and this tutorial here only I used all 4 sized pieces and not just 2 of them as she's instructed.


I kinda wish this was mine.  LOL!!  I do have the same picture and it'll be interesting to see how that one turns out.

Hope you're all enjoying your long weekend!  Hugs!

CLP #51

And we're back for another sketch from CLP Challenge Blog!  Ok Chelsea really challenged me on this one.  Phew!!  I had a hard time with the piece on the right hand side so I added the black leaves under my bouquet.  I've seen a few Halloween cards lately and that got me itchin' to make one myself.  I inked up this Kraftin' Kimmie stamp "Batty Princess", which hasn't seen ink ever and I bought it last year.  Oooops!! 


I just want to point out those wonderful hand made Glow Skullz embellies.  You can check them out here and many more amazing perfect creations for your Halloween cards.  Love the pumpkins!!  Thanks Glo!!


Sorry for the quick post.  Off to bed!!  Have a great long weekend everybody.  Unless you don't have one then I'm so sorry for you but have a great weekend anyway.  LOL!

OH AND PLEASE, if you get a chance stop by and see the gorgeous creations by my fellow teamies at CLP.  They are some talented!!

Gifts for you

Another cute LOTV image!!! I am on a mission to make sure that every stamp I order from LOTV, actually gets used.  Good thing I don't apply that mission to all my images.  ha ha ha!!  So when I received the 3 that I ordered, I colored them all up immediately and now this is card #2. 

I also noticed how making a 5 1/2" x 5 1/2" card was far easier then my normal 6 x 6 as this image is a bit smaller then some of the others I use.   Lots of little extra's (cuz that's different how? - LMBO) and some very pretty brown and pink paper that my sister sent me.  Thanks buddie!!  


I've made the card to enter into the following challenges:

Lili's Little Fairies - Spots or stripes, well I couldn't decide so how about both?  LOL

Hanna and Friends - this sketch


Well that's it for now!  Off to work on a Halloween card.  I KNOW!!  I can't believe it's already coming around.  Jeesh!  Enjoy your weekend all!

Fall Maggie

I just LOVE this image!  Isn't she cute?  We had some really amazing summer weather but I think I am looking forward to fall now.  I haven't had too much just yet tho and I am NOT complaining since it seems like winter lasts 6 months nowadays.  LOL!

"Autumn Tilda with Broom" is what this Tilda is called and you can find her at Magnolia-licious where you can also find the rest of the new "Turning Leaves" collection.  Funny thing!!  After I colored her all up I have seen 2 more images colored with the same color combo!  Ahhhh great minds think alike! 


I'd like to enter my card into the following challenges:

Lovely Hanglar or Sweet Magnolia challenge blog - Favorite image and for now this is mine.  It seems like my favorite changes with every new collection.  LOL!

LOTV - Message for You

Boy that LOTV company is kicking out some amazing images over the last few months.  I picked up this little cutie a short bit ago, along with a few more I hope to share soon.

Oh WAIT, then I ordered 5 more xmas ones only to find out there is ANOTHER release coming out.  DOH!!  Just when my money thought it was safe!!  BWAAAHHHH HA HA HA HA!  Oh who am I kidding.?!!  Doesn't this happen every fall/winter?  YES!  Love it!


The only thing I find with these images is they are a little smaller and I think I might have a tendency to have my embellishments overpower my poor little image.  But at least I give your eyes lots to look at.  LOL!!   I'll try a smaller card next time and see if that helps me out.  

I'm going to enter this card in 2 challenges:

Simon Says -Animal Antics
Mad for Markers - Anything Goes

So I'm coming up with some very interesting news soon.  Summer is coming to an end and so is my holiday and time to be creating again!!  I will share my secret soon!
