Welcome to the April installment of the <a href="http://magnolia-liciouschristmasallyearlong.blogspot.com/">Magnolia-licious Christmas All Year Long</a> Blog Hop. Today I am posting a card I made for my mom to hand out at Christmas time. <br />
This card uses some of the more "traditional" Christmas colors of red and green with some cream. I really do love how it turned out. <br />
I colored my image, <a href="http://www.scrapyland.com/Magnolia_Stamps_Merry_Christmas_Tilda_p/hv08-21.htm">Merry Christmas Tilda</a>, with Tim Holtz distress inks and added some red and green Stickles to the words MERRY CHRISTMAS.<br />
<br />

Today I am displaying a card I made for my mom to give to a family member at Christmastime. I used one of the precious Snowie stamps, Snowman with Bells I believe the name is and you can find it <a href="http://www.magnoliastamps.us/store2/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=18&products_id=426">here</a> in Diana's store.<br />

While they were coloring images, I created this card using Peachy Tilda that I got from an image swap. Now I have to have her LOL<br /><br />Tilda was colored with Tim Holtz distress inks and copics (for the face). I used my nesties to cut her out. The paper is from Karen Foster (red and yellow) and Imaginisce (Green).

I used my Tim Holtz distress inks to color her in except her face, I used E00 and E02 from Copic. The candy cane is a digital image that was perfect for this card. It was also colored with distress ink. <br />The paper I used is from my computer, there's no company, I just searched for Christmas paper and it popped up. I absolutely love it. I saved it to my computer and printed it on watercolor paper, I love the texture. <br />The flowers are from <a href="http://Crafta.com/">Crafta.com</a> and <a href="http://www.wildorchidcrafts.com/">Wild Orchid Crafts.com</a>.<br />The edge punch for the card was from Making Memories, I believe...<br />The crystal garland was from my local craft store and I colored it with some distress re-inker (raisin) to give it some color. <br />The PEACE charm on the top, right corner of the card is from my stash of charms. <br /><br />Here is a close-up of little Tilda:<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJWmYyhTmkTb3tYZPPOznwKJavZ5MrvQDR7m2ZzZdw9efTbTDPAEs0-OKMYQS0bT6b4eDSNsSPa5TZDuLyK_KCAwfzE3Wgcg2neNjCRo7vYck0LRDlgVSd2m2EofSDT1IS5u7ZApVMPaA/s1600/DSC_0035_2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJWmYyhTmkTb3tYZPPOznwKJavZ5MrvQDR7m2ZzZdw9efTbTDPAEs0-OKMYQS0bT6b4eDSNsSPa5TZDuLyK_KCAwfzE3Wgcg2neNjCRo7vYck0LRDlgVSd2m2EofSDT1IS5u7ZApVMPaA/s400/DSC_0035_2.JPG" width="393" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div> Now lets hop on over to <a href="http://willstampforwine.blogspot.com/">Kathy Curry's Blog</a> and see what wonderful creation she has for us today! <br /><br />Have a Simply Magnolia Day!<br /><br /><div class="MsoNormal"><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com/" target="_blank"><img border="0" src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/85807/imaprincess79/157c8a71d3d9c7c5ed3d7fee70b0afd3.png" style="background: transparent; border: 0 !important;" /></a></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com14tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3276038011120912371.post-73925438765074731432010-07-22T16:15:00.000-06:002011-02-24T16:56:02.788-07:00Waiting for Someone...<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjviD8oSIvpR8oXY63LpGPP6_rsq3n6xcxG15tFKADkmNUNKzOtdYPCDPyICB1etN6HTtC6dtuIl8an06X4P3t61y2SOICt4UkCZCpikpMJec9jyJeT3TauFMdhrS7CAr0j8b0Kfn7meEM/s1600/DSC_0031.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="156" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjviD8oSIvpR8oXY63LpGPP6_rsq3n6xcxG15tFKADkmNUNKzOtdYPCDPyICB1etN6HTtC6dtuIl8an06X4P3t61y2SOICt4UkCZCpikpMJec9jyJeT3TauFMdhrS7CAr0j8b0Kfn7meEM/s400/DSC_0031.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div>Look at her...she looks so sad sitting there waiting for someone...I know just who she is waiting for...She is waiting for her mingle partner, Lynn M. over at the Magnolia Cards and Kit Swap Yahoo group! <br /><br />I used Tilda Longing Tilda from the 2010 Fairy Tale Collection and Castle Window, also from the Fairy Tale Collection. <br />Paper is from DCWV Princess paper stack, I just love, love, love this paper.

I loved the card but knew it needed more and I didn't have what I wanted so I waited. Once I had what I wanted I didn't have the time so I waited some more...Today I had not only the supplies but the time to complete it. <br /><br />I used Tilda with Bare Feet and I just LOVE how she's facing away from you and you can see her little wings and tiny toes. What a cutie!<br />The paper I used is from The Paper Loft. Tilda was colored with copic markers and I also did some paper piecing on her scarf and overalls. Love the look! <br />I also used a lovely gold ribbon slide with some New England Ivy ribbon from CTMH. I also used paper flowers from Crafta and Wild Orchid Crafts. The butterfly is from my stash. <br /><br />Butterflies is the theme for our Magnolia-licious Yahoo group Mingle and Kit Swap this month. If you'd like to join in the fun, click on the link in my side bar on the left. <br /><br />I'm not sure what I plan on doing with this cute little Tilda but chances are, she'll end up in the hands of my lovely mingle partner!!<br /><br />Here are the pics of my card.

I followed the advice of Angie Hunt, I just LOVE how her images come out, I even bought the ones she used on her Honey Tilda LOL I haven't colored her yet. <br /><br />Anyway, I just wanted to share her with you and ask for your opinions (but be gentle LOL). One of these days I'll get her on a card.

This month I used a super cute Tilda I haven't seen before. Her name is <a href="http://www.allthatscraps.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=360_891_1078&products_id=10562&zenid=ac3fa41ad83e1f9d900a9a7d7ecf2b09">Cozy Tilda</a> and I just love her cozy little mitt and coat. She looks so warm! <br /><br />My paper came from an old Close To My Heart kit that I bought ages ago but it was wintery and worked perfectly with my Tilda. I actually colored her AFTER I chose my paper this time LOL<br />Other items I used on my card were Snowflake buttons in various sizes from various companies, big silver brads, some ribbon from my stash, a safety pin and charm that reads NOEL. Tilda is sitting on some baby blue floss from CTMH also.<br />One other element on my card was the use of stick-ease, a product from CTMH. They are cardstock stickers that are made to look real. I used them under the ribbon and the frame on the inside. It's a fun little touch. <br />The sentiment was stamped with a CTMH stamp called For Every Occasion.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLLeU7pX18WRZhnnHq46N4EpuWb68A5zLPyBQOTmK-DybOobnRr1iCXEJdFFVnMWILxYf3IKoEtwuTRVY96GS-kky-DdY74mBLZjNKhbhq70r2WNXDQJXuWOyZnnk0oVnZ_v_DT4tAbK0/s1600/DSC_0053.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLLeU7pX18WRZhnnHq46N4EpuWb68A5zLPyBQOTmK-DybOobnRr1iCXEJdFFVnMWILxYf3IKoEtwuTRVY96GS-kky-DdY74mBLZjNKhbhq70r2WNXDQJXuWOyZnnk0oVnZ_v_DT4tAbK0/s400/DSC_0053.JPG" width="352" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Here are some more views of my card:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwzkapMPOGuhA3LWa6ASXWxBYAUIH4-2SrYIenV-yOAIQlZVb9QPwCWag-4fuLtFH9OCnAxr0C1ckjNhlBijGECowuzLAdlLucNV6uwRMKfitKZF3yFMOwy6gNjEL7LY0xoOrjJowV7b4/s1600/DSC_0054.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwzkapMPOGuhA3LWa6ASXWxBYAUIH4-2SrYIenV-yOAIQlZVb9QPwCWag-4fuLtFH9OCnAxr0C1ckjNhlBijGECowuzLAdlLucNV6uwRMKfitKZF3yFMOwy6gNjEL7LY0xoOrjJowV7b4/s400/DSC_0054.jpg" width="266" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBI7mQihbqGxD2AzfAWCh4kBBoMThGnYFtcc23IYmjS-ymONL9r_Eo_UD3pmEFkHN_JVP6ERb3Oo2EzMtYchWKI-RazNqVsuDWPUkmaFsoZThg6qYGn-S9b47D5gElclVd0TNQqgpEyDY/s1600/DSC_0055.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="338" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBI7mQihbqGxD2AzfAWCh4kBBoMThGnYFtcc23IYmjS-ymONL9r_Eo_UD3pmEFkHN_JVP6ERb3Oo2EzMtYchWKI-RazNqVsuDWPUkmaFsoZThg6qYGn-S9b47D5gElclVd0TNQqgpEyDY/s400/DSC_0055.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Now lets hop on over to <a href="http://willstampforwine.blogspot.com/">Kathy Curry's Blog</a> and see what wonderful creation she has come up with this 25th of June. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">If you just came from <a href="http://playingwithcolor.blogspot.com/">Deb's Blog</a> you're on the right track. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">If you started with my blog, hop back over <a href="http://stampincabin.blogspot.com/">here</a> to Julie's blog and start from the beginning as I don't want you to miss a single great creation! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Products used:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.allthatscraps.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=360_891_1078&products_id=10562&zenid=ac3fa41ad83e1f9d900a9a7d7ecf2b09">Cozy Tilda</a> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">DP, brads, stick-ease, safety pin from <a href="http://www.closetomyheart.com/">CTMH</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Ribbon from my stash</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Snowflakes from various companies</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Have a Simply Magnolia Day!</div><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com/" target="_blank"><img border="0" src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/85807/imaprincess79/157c8a71d3d9c7c5ed3d7fee70b0afd3.png" style="background: transparent; border: 0 !important;" /></a><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com12tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3276038011120912371.post-26780183629175155312010-06-23T13:11:00.000-06:002011-02-24T16:56:02.918-07:00Spooky Tilda...Not! There's nothing spooky about her at all, in fact, she's just adorable. <br />As you can clearly see, she's not attached to any card...yet...but it will happen someday. I colored her yesterday and really liked how she turned out so I thought I'd share :)<br />I'm going to use her on a card for my hubby, he's deploying soon and I thought this would make a cute "halloween" card to send to him. I'm going to put "BOO HOO I MISS YOU" on the inside, see the BOO is halloweenie LOL Ok, well I thought it was cute. It's probably how I'm going to feel anyway...BOO HOO!! <br /><br />Anyway, I colored her with my copics, gotta love those babies! My ever growing collection :) I just had to go out and buy and new container to put them in for when I travel (yes, I have to take them with me along with some stamped images just to color LOL can you say "obsessed?")<br /><br />Thanks for looking!!! I will definitely post the card once I make it. I promise!!<br /><br />Oh, one more thing, I also used one of the MS punch around the page punches...love it!!

Today, I finished up my June Mingle Card for my mingle partner (Marcia) over at the Magnolia-licious Yahoo Group. Want to join? Click on the group button on my sidebar ---><br /><br />Ok, here is the card I made for Marcia. I used Tilda with Cute Skirt (and boy is it ever a cute skirt). The paper I received from one of the Card Kit Swaps. Love those swaps. I'm anxious to get my next set, I'm almost out of kits. I am also hosting my own card kit swap so I can't wait to get those either :)<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjNVhQ4sMIn8kgOYAUkEk3-DD3nvfT5gqozWG9MYSNOgsnnQWrZdCjYL0XPTKYO6Jm4MYDUXszK6LHNzSuJBsPLaCRTKIvztKDABuoHZrOenZajk2cGme4oDVGk9bssnksdKLR4nalezw/s1600/DSC_0056.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjNVhQ4sMIn8kgOYAUkEk3-DD3nvfT5gqozWG9MYSNOgsnnQWrZdCjYL0XPTKYO6Jm4MYDUXszK6LHNzSuJBsPLaCRTKIvztKDABuoHZrOenZajk2cGme4oDVGk9bssnksdKLR4nalezw/s400/DSC_0056.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>Other items used were beaded garland, paper flowers from Prima, satin roses from Hobby Lobby, ribbon from my ribbon jar, butterflies, and I also used Stairs from Magnolia too.

It will be her first girl after having 3 little boys, they are very excited and very done LOL! I went a little non-trasitional on my card and used Good News Tilda from the Magnolia store. I colored her using my Copics.

About time!! <br /><div><br /></div><div>Today I finally finished this card I started about 3 weeks ago...Here's the scoop...I got this ingenious idea to create this really neat card where Tilda was kind of suspended in mid air being held on by two rings and having this castle looking arch behind her...Well as you can see, there are no rings, my paper kept ripping cause I couldn't find my piercing tool so I scrapped that idea and created a larger hole which I then looped some ribbon through, Ok so I got that part figured out and I created my really cool brick arch but then...I was stuck...OH NO!! what's a gal to do?!? I sat the card up on my entertainment center for a whole 3 weeks, looking at it, avoiding it, you name it...Then I discovered those crystal bead deals that you can get in the bridal section of any craft store...Believe it or not, I actually bought some for my son's birthday cake...another story for another day, just know that I had some and I got so excited when I came up with the idea to dye them green using Tim Holtz's alcohol ink re-inkers and a plastic bag. GENIOUS! I now have crystal vines! The whole thing came together in a jiffy once I had the idea. I really love how this card turned out and it's possibly my absolute favorite card now. </div><div><br /></div><div>Ok, so here's some of the products I used on my card...</div><div><br /></div><div>Tilda With Glitter Halo</div><div>Patterned paper from...I don't know LOL came from my stash!</div><div>Carsdstock from Close To My Heart</div><div>Crystal garland from JoAnn Crafts</div><div>Flowers from Prima and JoAnn Crafts</div><div>Brads from CTMH</div><div>Satin Roses from Hobby Lobby (I was giddy with excitement in the isle when I found these baby's LOL)</div><div>Punch from Making Memories...I think LOL</div><div>Butterflies from JoAnn Crafts</div><div><br /></div><div>Here's my card and some closer details:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4YhxsvvMFiwLOEQmZOPUk7jtZgcrIaKIA8Bk9shNX8OBrGchl4hl2QqWYydAyO8zuEFTtHOeNNximpoDaYHTdtbL967jBZs97ka9S8zntNoDkNlXHCdG9CcNT1KCrJ8_Y_8os9-2hL3o/s1600/MagnoliaPurple1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="357" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4YhxsvvMFiwLOEQmZOPUk7jtZgcrIaKIA8Bk9shNX8OBrGchl4hl2QqWYydAyO8zuEFTtHOeNNximpoDaYHTdtbL967jBZs97ka9S8zntNoDkNlXHCdG9CcNT1KCrJ8_Y_8os9-2hL3o/s400/MagnoliaPurple1.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlJzRUvXyQbxcr6tHd-_1HYgrrhUtC2R4oTaWx4KWKgnnDjG5M1F2-xfjgzU0o4OcJeVbg9NM_hl0xw_Bdy48i9YPiZYfUWXoa110A5Stsqtb7PlU_RIgP0My4S4xI8dJao7mjrda4hyphenhypheno/s1600/MagnoliaPurple2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlJzRUvXyQbxcr6tHd-_1HYgrrhUtC2R4oTaWx4KWKgnnDjG5M1F2-xfjgzU0o4OcJeVbg9NM_hl0xw_Bdy48i9YPiZYfUWXoa110A5Stsqtb7PlU_RIgP0My4S4xI8dJao7mjrda4hyphenhypheno/s400/MagnoliaPurple2.jpg" width="266" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Have a Simply Magnolia Day!</div><div><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com/" target="_blank"><img border="0" src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/85807/imaprincess79/157c8a71d3d9c7c5ed3d7fee70b0afd3.png" style="background: transparent; border: 0 !important;" /></a></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com10tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3276038011120912371.post-34503288601281180202010-06-02T10:16:00.000-06:002011-02-24T16:56:03.018-07:00BLOG CANDY GIVEAWAY!So, I just recently celebrated my birthday and to share in the celebration with you I am offering some BLOG CANDY! Who doesn't like getting stuff for free right?? <br /><br />All you have to do is create a card using any Tilda image and the color YELLOW (it's my favorite color) and link your blog below. Also, please include my blog candy picture somewhere on your blog so that others can play along too! Once you've done that, come back and leave me a comment! <br /><br />I will select the winner using Random.org on June 30th. The winner will receive a nice little package of goodies from me including Tilda With Apple. You will also receive a package of chipboard shapes from Heidi Grace, 3 Studio G stamp sets, 2 rounds of seriously fun and funky ribbon, and a package of primary brads from Making Memories. I will also throw in a nice stack of stamped Tilda images! How's that for some blog candy?!?!<br /><br />**UPDATE** I am also adding 36 5/8" paper roses and 6 1-1/2" paper roses in various colors!<br /><br />Here is a picture of the blog candy minus the images (cause I haven't stamped them yet LOL)<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxQ9xR_jwZFrwP51uvwT8N56_YeI0Z3_PFkgoK1mf61mvM_Ao2r8cQzy3fpvKJRsfkajFRHsii6ZFFBPeWennVlf33IWFznNR6EZ3P-eErDxS0mFktifbX_tTtUkSFmlxb5X8clh9BD8Q/s1600/DSC_0033.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxQ9xR_jwZFrwP51uvwT8N56_YeI0Z3_PFkgoK1mf61mvM_Ao2r8cQzy3fpvKJRsfkajFRHsii6ZFFBPeWennVlf33IWFznNR6EZ3P-eErDxS0mFktifbX_tTtUkSFmlxb5X8clh9BD8Q/s400/DSC_0033.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><script src="http://www2.blenza.com/linkies/autolink.php?owner=iekika79&postid=02Jun2010" type="text/javascript"></script></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Have a Simply Magnolia Day!</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com/" target="_blank"><img border="0" src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/85807/imaprincess79/157c8a71d3d9c7c5ed3d7fee70b0afd3.png" style="background: transparent; border: 0 !important;" /></a></span></span></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com16tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3276038011120912371.post-73893084075309889112010-05-27T15:30:00.000-06:002011-02-24T16:56:03.042-07:00Peachy KeenToday while my tile guys were here finishing my master bathroom I decided to sneak away to my loft and create this card using Strawberry Tilda.<br /><br />I colored this Tilda a few days ago but did nothing with her. Ironically while I was looking for paper I found some from Carolee's Creations that was the perfect match. Most people color their images to match their paper, I do the opposite! So far I've been lucky! I also received some awesome ribbon from my April mingle partner that was also a perfect match. I added the peach ribbon around the card then just added the two smaller knots to each side of the peach knot. It matches the striped paper perfectly! <br /><br />The paper roses are from Crafta.com and the butterfly is from, I wanna say, K & Co. but I could be wrong and I don't feel like going back up into my loft to find out LOL Sorry! I colored her with my copic markers and this time spent some time with distressing her like in Angie's video tutorials. I think she turned out pretty good, what do you think? <br /><br />The CS, ink and sentiment are all from Close To My Heart. I didn't add any charms or safety pins this time. <br /><br />I cut out a separate arm with watering can and popped it off the page as well as her hand around the stem of the flower. I love the dimension it gives. I don't know if you can tell in the picture or not. I again, replaced the leaves with a flower.<br /><br />I hope you like my card! It's by far my 2nd favorite card!<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0rmPK_qjKhyZAhO5A1B6G3JF9mcA9CsvN_GrcpNkVEehG6T9niOV6cE1j1WWe9FxTXjEROdVrMixT-2ZWfSeSOWoXVEodC8Ct9HIKtYE4wi7pavAly7xhMHti05aSAlk6v1M3SLAEmvU/s1600/Magnolia1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0rmPK_qjKhyZAhO5A1B6G3JF9mcA9CsvN_GrcpNkVEehG6T9niOV6cE1j1WWe9FxTXjEROdVrMixT-2ZWfSeSOWoXVEodC8Ct9HIKtYE4wi7pavAly7xhMHti05aSAlk6v1M3SLAEmvU/s400/Magnolia1.jpg" width="347" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2TYgPP0kGT3gtVnz9vAK-z4fNhIiz7VoI5o0eAfgkRpu25O0Kh-MMJ88hFVdSNHUbLXhaLQp2rvxgtzAXH-idFVf7tBr2d7xziyiTdZ_kEf2TS49aFuZbkV0Cn6qkAgEyaMig9DcbsCo/s1600/Magnolia_Closeup.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2TYgPP0kGT3gtVnz9vAK-z4fNhIiz7VoI5o0eAfgkRpu25O0Kh-MMJ88hFVdSNHUbLXhaLQp2rvxgtzAXH-idFVf7tBr2d7xziyiTdZ_kEf2TS49aFuZbkV0Cn6qkAgEyaMig9DcbsCo/s320/Magnolia_Closeup.jpg" /></a><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdkw_dnVP-dHCAtknqoc6YU4bRQ4aMIKoZHMNipUEdESvb1jSx3S4WLTCPnUP0kS5LtGqOG3qrRJmfdhk3hYEJfayneyZz8ogk6FF4QpD9C6aGACDMjJ6PQLWkxRaXJ1Sf73FjNbYLr_s/s1600/Magnolia1_Inside.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="237" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdkw_dnVP-dHCAtknqoc6YU4bRQ4aMIKoZHMNipUEdESvb1jSx3S4WLTCPnUP0kS5LtGqOG3qrRJmfdhk3hYEJfayneyZz8ogk6FF4QpD9C6aGACDMjJ6PQLWkxRaXJ1Sf73FjNbYLr_s/s400/Magnolia1_Inside.jpg" width="400" /></a><br /><br />Have a Simply Magnolia Day!<br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #636466; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 11px; line-height: 20px;"><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com/" target="_blank"><img border="0" src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/85807/imaprincess79/157c8a71d3d9c7c5ed3d7fee70b0afd3.png" style="background: transparent; border: 0 !important;" /></a></span></span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com16tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3276038011120912371.post-79359535647082036302010-05-25T06:00:00.000-06:002011-02-24T16:56:03.074-07:00Happy 25th of May...<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Today is May 25th and this is the day that we get to post our cards for the <a href="http://magnolia-liciouschristmasallyearlong.blogspot.com/">Christmas All Year Long Blog Hop</a>.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br /></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">This month I am using <a href="http://www.magnoliastamps.us/store2/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=18&products_id=403">Unwrapped Tilda</a> purchased from Diana over at the Magnolia Store found <a href="http://www.magnoliastamps.us/">here</a>.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br /></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">The paper I chose is a little non-traditional and came from a kit I purchased a long time ago, but I do know it came from JoAnn's.

I'm just loving these kits! <br /><br />This one uses <a href="http://www.magnoliastamps.us/store2/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=2&products_id=230">Tilda with Ladybug</a> which can be purchased at Diana's store <a href="http://www.magnoliastamps.us/">here</a>.<br />I think I'm going to have to add this one to my ever growing wish list...<br /><br />The paper is adorable and double sided, I used the back side of the paper as it was a little softer for the look I was going for. The flowers I purchased from a lady on Etsy. The GIGGLE, charm, ribbon, and rhinestones were all in my kit. <br /><br />Really, I think there's just something missing, what do you think? Tell me, I can take it...I think...<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_9QEBhDTTKsRUnflt-y-xt5WSvOCo0eAdIVsj-2QiXDFJjMaWb5A582YM6vgOeSXMGXiKu0qWZz3f1vfmAt3i1hb5cPLZd3IywHF70j1etuvy5AwGWI4EqIfQ32MEzMa3w3eAoadqjNo/s1600/Tildaw_ladybug.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="371" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_9QEBhDTTKsRUnflt-y-xt5WSvOCo0eAdIVsj-2QiXDFJjMaWb5A582YM6vgOeSXMGXiKu0qWZz3f1vfmAt3i1hb5cPLZd3IywHF70j1etuvy5AwGWI4EqIfQ32MEzMa3w3eAoadqjNo/s400/Tildaw_ladybug.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">And a close up of Miss Tilda</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPuiTZLaKFPBRr-LKY4RwdKMiHAoVVR9Zx4oq8fYTEZeEJT4aGxBdIxGYCmY_MhB4o312qI3YkxZc44EQMGNrs_ny0sUsAtchgQKE-oZklo-MGHOK4MJFLHyp2fzyP3UrdQLUZt3KkOO8/s1600/Tildaw_ladybug2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPuiTZLaKFPBRr-LKY4RwdKMiHAoVVR9Zx4oq8fYTEZeEJT4aGxBdIxGYCmY_MhB4o312qI3YkxZc44EQMGNrs_ny0sUsAtchgQKE-oZklo-MGHOK4MJFLHyp2fzyP3UrdQLUZt3KkOO8/s400/Tildaw_ladybug2.jpg" width="263" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Have a Simply Magnolia Day!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><!--StartFragment--> </div><div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54488/102/82815E2A6B0695C5C747F6391C3BD36F.png" style="background: transparent; border: 0 !important;" /></a><o:p></o:p></span></div><!--EndFragment-->Unknownnoreply@blogger.com17tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3276038011120912371.post-26013557415121823322010-05-19T14:30:00.000-06:002011-02-24T16:56:03.108-07:00Strawberry Fields ForeverDon't ya just love The Beatles? I do! Huge Fan! I am also a HUGE fan of Magnolia stamps too! Can't ya tell!! LOL! <br /><br />I recently participated in a Card Kit Swap over at the Magnolia-licious Yahoo Group (Want to join? Click the link on the sidebar of my screen -->) I just received the most wonderful package in the mail with 5 of the cutest kits I have ever seen enclosed. I couldn't wait to rip open the package (carefully so as not to ruin any of the contents) and see what was awaiting me inside. Here is one of the cards I created using one of the kits. This pretty little thing is Strawberry Tilda colored with Copic markers, cut out with Nesties and popped onto some darling paper I believe is from DCWV. The ribbon is just perfect for this paper! I'm totally loving the little paper roses that were included. I used some on another card but saved the yellow one for this card. I replaced the flowers from the image with the rose. I can't believe how well the color matches my watering can, and would you believe it, I colored this image over the weekend before I knew there was a yellow rose inside. How about that for ESP?! The inside of the card contains my hand typed message, I just had to use "berry" in there somewhere. I used the other side of the paper for the inside of my card. I really love how it all came together. I hope you do too! <br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzD7rhw_GrOVoramC7U4EU_ChDaBG79lFlmcw_GkLwGdQW5HKk-pJnTGZMZ7ixBHZ7nLWRgoJrdktdHoYHgSSZBAIGL6R8_fwUMw7UOo9MbHDWkq7LgnvfLGBtB-DzaYA1OZxsLVh-Mr4/s1600/Tilda1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="355" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzD7rhw_GrOVoramC7U4EU_ChDaBG79lFlmcw_GkLwGdQW5HKk-pJnTGZMZ7ixBHZ7nLWRgoJrdktdHoYHgSSZBAIGL6R8_fwUMw7UOo9MbHDWkq7LgnvfLGBtB-DzaYA1OZxsLVh-Mr4/s400/Tilda1.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDGV7sYEFsF6NbF8ZNTfOtg0EjKOug2UoAaal6RzX26TbwYHOfyHbElOWCfR8LUij9kYCoDzG1Do3BYAy5WDpxHc75lwbz91laLI-7dsDoNK1c5BgQ_BdX0ecQRH5FbjAwLxCbF6EWykU/s1600/Tilda1inside.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="317" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDGV7sYEFsF6NbF8ZNTfOtg0EjKOug2UoAaal6RzX26TbwYHOfyHbElOWCfR8LUij9kYCoDzG1Do3BYAy5WDpxHc75lwbz91laLI-7dsDoNK1c5BgQ_BdX0ecQRH5FbjAwLxCbF6EWykU/s400/Tilda1inside.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWiY37WwExT9fz7J9_pdYSXi8hT8P3xuL5n0G7sb2rc2qhCJW9Wc6rLQouTXXfaMhJzvbn7gi7eRiA74hEwm2sfcRvrsnu9Zaeri6Zz4y3yBIjp_pzITUfIIhs7Oav6Plo6TKKWTgCPqw/s1600/Tilda1closeup.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWiY37WwExT9fz7J9_pdYSXi8hT8P3xuL5n0G7sb2rc2qhCJW9Wc6rLQouTXXfaMhJzvbn7gi7eRiA74hEwm2sfcRvrsnu9Zaeri6Zz4y3yBIjp_pzITUfIIhs7Oav6Plo6TKKWTgCPqw/s400/Tilda1closeup.jpg" width="266" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Have a Simply Magnolia Day!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><!--StartFragment--> </div><div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54488/102/82815E2A6B0695C5C747F6391C3BD36F.png" style="background: transparent; border: 0 !important;" /></a><o:p></o:p></span></div><!--EndFragment-->Unknownnoreply@blogger.com12
