Celebrate with Magnolia


Hi my Craft friends.. I am back with my second card for today.. I told you last night that I had created another card with an Image that I had previously colored, but "never" used before.. Here she is!! Miss Tilda her self from the Magnolia stamp series.


I know that they are some "Die Hard" Magnolia fans out there.. I have always thought they were just the cutest stamps.. ( my little one always wants me to finish drawing her nose an mouth on her.. hehehe. But I think she looks just gorgeous as "is"!! I have had her for over a "year" now.. I saw soo many beautiful creations with all the different stamps and collections, that I wanted to give her a try. So I purchased 2 of  the stamps from 7kidscollegefunds. but of course I had always felt a little intimated to color her. I USE to feel that way.. As I don't any more I take my crafting as "my" own enjoyment; I just love the fact that you ALL love it too. :0)))))

I colored her with my Prisma and OMS. I used the "out the box" technique soo it looks like she is running the oval. I used my Nesti and Cuttlebug for that. Card stock, Ribbon and sentiment is: PTI, DP is my new sample pack form American Crafts "Backyard. I purchased from Claudia and CO. I made the flowers with my cricut. and Forever Young cartridge, and pop dot to make everything pop.

Challenges:
7kids College Funds-Pink and Flowers

Rainbow Lady- Tie a Yellow Ribbon
Sampinsanity- Punch Out

For this week's color challenge ( which I just LOVE..) I used "Birthday Emma" from the Puddle Jumper line created BLD. I just love her with her "balloons".and her little Ribbon in her hair and on her dress.


I am soo in love with the color "orange". and I had such fun coloring her up with my Prisma and OMS, and I used lots of stickles on her bows.. Look at  her "balloons" I colored them with my "Sakura" gell pen. I printed the "gift" twice ( one I altered just a bit) and ran some colored paper thru my printer and then used them as my "embellishment's". Card Stock is: PTI, DP is from Michael's, and I used pop dots to pop everything up.

Some I have had for quite a while, and every time I clean up my craft area I say that I am going to pull them out and make some cards with them ( even if I not too happy with the finally results. It's just always good to see where you started and just how far you have come.. And sometime how much more we can learn and get better at s;0))).

Being Fabuous is Hard Work

 
Ok I'm Back with another card. Say Hi to "Dress Up Marci" from La-La Land Crafts.. As soon as I saw her I had to go and snatch her up. She is soo reminding me of my DD Lynette. I have mention before that my little one is such a "fashionesta" and loves dressing up in my  or her "sisters" shoes and jewelry.



I myself can still remember dressing up in my "grand mother's hats. ( She had the most beautiful hats that she wore to Church on Sunday). I colored Marci with my Prisma and OMS. and for her flower and pearls I used my "sakura" gell pens.

Card Stock is from PTI. I was excited to play with her because I knew just what paper I wanted to use. This Gorgeous set is also from PTI. "Beautiful Blooms". ( don't you LOVE IT. :0)))). Ribbon is from Michael's. and the Sentiment is from the very talented " Paulette over at Create with TLC" ( again I can always go to her when I need a certain sentiment for just about 'any' of my creations. What I love about this card besides that is it just everything about "Spring" .. that It would make a perfect "Mothers Day" card or a Birthday card.

Challenges:
Aly's Sunday- Spring has Sprung

If you have not seeing any of Regina Easter's creations you are SOO missing out on a lot of fun and Super cute Digi stamps and Cut file. (including SVG and PDF format).


When I say this was quick, simple and "super easy" to put together that is just what I mean. The little "lady bug" and sentiment come ALL ready colored.

Ribbon I got from Wal-mart. and check out my little lady bug. It is actually a button that I got from the same Ribbon Section from Wal-mart. all I did was cut off the little hook at the bottom and attached it to my card with some glue dots.
