Noel


Hello everyone, this is a card I made for a challenge blog DT where we had a theme of colouring on kraft.....something I have never done before but always wanted to try....so here it is....


For my card I have used the NOEL stamp from the Magnolia So Jolly & Under the Mistletoe Collection 2009 and I have coloured it with copics and embellished with red stickles. I made the background DP, first I sponged it with antique linen distress ink then I randomly stamped one of the holly stamps from the WMS very vintage christmas set. Finally I finished off with some gold ribbon from my stash.

Winter Sun!!


Hello everyone, today I have a card to show you that is a break from christmas cards and all things wintery...... some fun in the sun!!


For my card I have done an easel design and I have used Tilda with Ice cream and Summer Tilda from the Magnolia Lazy Summer Days Collection 2009 and both are coloured with copics. The DP is from echo park and the ribbon and jewels are from my stash.


The sentiment is from Waltzingmouse and I have stamped it on kraft (well the closest I can get to kraft!) cardstock. I really like this look as it makes the sentiment stand out.....def be doing it again!!

Tilda with Cross Stitch Heart


Hello everyone, for my card today I have used some stamps from the new Magnolia collection.


For my card I decided to go with a mainly white theme, the card base and the card I have used for my embossed panels are two different types hence the colour difference! I have used Tilda with Cross Stitch Heart from the Magnolia Sweet Christmas Dreams Collection 2011 and I have coloured her with copics. I used my snowflakes folder and a craft concepts embossing folder called cottage floral. I used a MS PATP punch for tilda to sit on and some ribbon and jewels to finish off.


For the inside I used an ink blending tool and weathered wood distress ink to distress the edges then I stamped the Sweet Yuletide Christmas Hat with weathered wood distress ink.

Supplies
Card/Paper: White card
Stamps: Magnolia - Tilda with Cross Stitch Heart, Sweet Yuletide Christmas Hat - Sweet Christmas Dreams Collection 2011
Colouring: Copics
Embellishments: Ribbon, jewels
Tools: Sewing machine, TH ink blending tool, MS punch, snowflake embossing folder, cottage floral embossing folder, trouvaille
