Kindness

Hi again!  I know...first I'm not here at all and then I come twice on the same day!  I managed to finish a card for a few challenges I like and figured I'd go ahead and get it posted.  It's for Just Magnolia and hAnglar & sTanglar Challenge #151 (anything goes), Bunny Zoe's Monthly Challenge (ribbon or twine) and 7 Kids College Fund Challenge #45 (diecuts and/or punches).

Here is my card for the challenges:

I started with a card base of SU Vintage Violet and layered with patterned papers from the My Mind's Eye Miss Caroline Fiddlesticks 6x6 pad.  I machine-stitched around all the panels.  I used Spellbinders Floral Doily Motifs and Parisian Accents diecuts for my frame and corner accents.  I added Buttercup Liquid Pearls to both.  My sweet Magnolia image is Tilda Holding Daffodil from the Butterfly Dreams collection.  I printed her on Cryogen White and colored her with my Copics.  I added a bit of Yellow Stickles to the daffodil.  I cut her out and popped her up on the motif frame.  The sentiment is from Paulette at Create With TLC.  A ribbon bow and button and a few Wild Orchid Crafts flowers finished up my card.

Thanks for stopping by!  That's it for me for today.  See you tomorrow for another fun Mo's DP2 Challenge!

Spring Tilda

My Heartfelt Creations Design Team Alumni post is HERE.

Hi!  Hope you are having a good week so far!  I can't believe it is Wednesday already!  It's sure been busy for me.  We have some dear friends coming to visit from out of town tomorrow and I need to have everything ready before they arrive. I can't wait to have some crafty time with my buddy, too!  It's been too long since we've gotten together!

Anyway, I'm popping in now to share the card I made for a couple of challenges.  It's for the Just Magnolia Challenge #149 (more than one fold), Midweek Magnolias Challenge #4 (sketch) and 7 Kids College Fund Challenge #44 (Shades of Spring).  It's rare that I pull out my Maggies these days, but I knew this cutie was perfect for what I wanted to create.  

Here is the Midweek Magnolias Sketch:

Here is my card for the challenges:

I decided on an easel card for my multi-fold creation.  I started with a card base of Papertrey Spring Moss and layered with patterned papers from the Prima Annabelle 6x6 pad.    My darling Magnolia stamp is Tilda Loves Flowers from the Sweet Crazy Love collection.  I stamped her on Cryogen White and colored her with my Copics.  I added some Stickles to the bouquet of flowers for a little sparkle.  The sentiment is from Create With TLC.  It is from the You Bring Sunshine set.   Check it out in Paulette's store here.  I added a few pink gems and three Wild Orchid Crafts roses to the front panel to finish it.  I created the easel stop with a border cut with the Cheery Lynn Border Carnivale die.  I punched a couple of butterflies with a Martha Stewart punch and finished them off with a few more pink gems.

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a great evening and see you soon!

Sweet Friendship

Hello, there!  Hope you're having a great week so far!  It's Hump Day and we're halfway to the weekend!  I'm popping by to share a card I made for a few challenges I enjoy doing when I find the time.  It is for this week's Just Magnolia Challenge #143 (pink, pearls, and lace), the current Our Creative Corner Challenge (card for best friend and include a flower), Cheery Lynn Designs Challenge #15 (pretty in pink) and the 7 Kids College Fund Challenge #41(monochromatic).

Here is my card:

I started with a card base of GKD Innocent Pink and layered with patterned papers from the Kaisercraft Sweet Nothings 6.5 x 6.5 pad keeping everything monochromatic in pinks.  My cute image is Tilda With Hawaii Flower.  She can be found in the 7 Kids store here.  I stamped her with Memento Tuxedo Black onto Cryogen White Iridescent and colored her with Copics.  The ornate frame was cut with the Cheery Lynn Polynesian Sails Oval die.  I added a flourish cut with the Cheery Lynn Fanciful Flourish die and some Wild Orchid Crafts roses.  My sentiment is from Paulette at Create With TLC.  It can be found in her store here.  Some ivory lace and a few pink pearls from my stash finished my card.

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a wonderful day!
