My Favorite Things

Hello. I'm back today with another card to share. The challenge over at Magnolia Down Under is to use your favorite things. Tilda Blowing Bubbles was my first Magnolia Stamp purchase. It was seeing this stamp used on a card that started my love of Magnolia stamps. She is definately my favorite and I'm not sure why I never inked her up until now. I used my circle nestabilities to cut her, along with the scallop circles.

I used some Webster's Pages from their digital line. Their entire line has fast become of favorite of mine. You will be seeing it a lot. I used some of their bloomers ribbon in celery. Another favorite I love seeing on cards is raffia lace. I just wish they would sell it over here in the U.S. The postage sentiment is from Whimsy Stamps. I finally used my Tattered Florals die from Tim Holtz. The challenge over at Simon Says Stamp is Sparkle and Shine, so I added some glimmer mist to the flower and the image. The paper I stamped on is Cryogen Irridescent paper which also has some sparkle to it (I tried to get it to show in the pictures...but no luck).

Here's a close up of Tilda blowing her bubbles.

You Hold the Key

Happy Wednesday everyone! We're half way through the week. I have an easel card to share today. The challenge over at Magnolia Stamp Lovers is "Graduation or Congratulations". This is for a friend's daughter who is graduationg high school.

I used some of the digital papers from Webster's Pages on the front of the card and on the tag. The beautifu organza rose ribbon on the tag and inside the card is from Maya Road. The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts. Tilda was colored with Copics and the script background is a stamp from Glitz. Throw in some Tim Holtz film strip ribbon and adage ticket and...Voila.

Here's a close up of the tag using a corner cut from some of the Webster's Pages. I also used the "I believe I can fly" stamp from Magnolia and added some lace and twine (Hope it's enough lace for the Just Magnolia and Bunny Zoe's challenges).

If you haven't stopped by the LOVE TO STAMP store, you're missing out. There's a fantastic sale going on over there (I've already placed two orders...hehehe).

If you have a few moments, go over and check out what the amazing DT has to show you and enter to win the blog candy.

I'll be back later with two cards to share. Thanks for stopping by and enjoy the rest of your day!

Tilda and Edwin In Love

Happy Saturday! Hope everyone is enjoying better weather than the chilly rain we're having here in Philadelphia. I've been dying to use these beautiful stamps with Tilda and Edwin and the Rose Trellis. The challenge over at Magnolia-licious Highlites is to use both Tilda and Edwin on your card. I've colored them with Copics and added some glossy accent to the flowers on Edwin and Tilda. I also added some perfect pearls to Tilda's hair and her earrings. I managed to get my hands on a couple rolls of that raffia lace. It's so difficult to find over here in the states.



The beautiful flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts. Their challenge this week is Wings, so I've added some butterflies using my Martha Stewart punch.

Hope you like it. Thanks for stopping by and I hope everyone has a wonderful Easter holiday.

Japanese Tilda

It's almost Friday. I can't wait for the weekend. I have a quick post tonight. The Totally Tilda Challenge right now is "Tilda All Over the World". I had colored Japanese Tilda and the Magnolia Tree but just couldn't find the right paper to go with it. Well, I somehow stumbled upon the Webster's Page website and I saw they had a digital section. You can buy their paper collections as digital downloads. The hardest part was choosing what collections I wanted to try first. This is from the Postcards from Paris collection. The great thing about the digital papers is you can resize them to fit your cards so the entire page fits. I chose to keep it simple because I didn't want to cover up that gorgeous design on the paper.

I must have been living under a rock because I've just discovered their papers and already placed an order over at Two Peas in a Pod (their having a sale on some of their Webster's stuff). I've also been dying to try some of their bloomers ribbon. I have to say they are super speedy over at Two Peas, cuz my box of goodies arrived today and I can't wait to play.

Thanks for stopping by.

Easter Bunny Tilda

Hello. A quick post tonight. I managed to get an Easter card finished. I used the adorable Bunny Tilda for this stair step card, along with the a couple of other Magnolia Stamps. Now if I can just find time to get all the other Easter cards done that I need. Where does the time go???

Magnolia Down Under is having an Easter theme challenge this week, along with 7 Kids College Fund and Magnolia Stamp Lovers. Magnolia-Licious has a theme of pink and green.

Thanks for stopping by!

Tulips for Tilda

Happy Monday! I finally got around to coloring one of my stamps from the Spring Kit. Isn't Tilda just adorable? The challenge over at 7kidcollegefund is "Seeing Spots", so I chose this polka dot paper from the Bloom and Grow collection from MME. Added some Distress Crackle paint to the edges, ribbon and flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts.
