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.

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
