Some Christmas Cards

Started working on some Christmas cards. Here is one that I used with Jam Tilda from the Magnolia-licious store and this wonderful gingerbread house from Alota Rubberstamps.


I used scribbles dimensional paint on the roof and dusted with some Martha Stewart glitter. Also used diamond stickles on the roof too and shutters.

Here is the inside of my card:


I tried to make the bow with the sentiment look like an ornament.

Recipe:
Stamps - Magnolia, Alota Rubberstamps
Paper - Stampin Up, Provocraft
Tools - Bowdabra, Spellbinder die, Scribbles, MS glitter, Stickles, Liquid pearls, Glossy accents
Ink - Copic markers, Ranger ink


Would love to hear what you think. Thanks so much for visiting!

October Magnolia-licious Highlites Challenge

Here is my easel card for the Magnolia-licious Highlites challenge blog. I actually made 2 cards - 1 with the monochromatic twist (which was difficult for me I must say). The easel template can be found here. Suzanne Dean has pictures up at the Magnolia-licious challenge blog that explains how to make the easel card too.

Here is my monochromatic card. I have a bowdabara (from Walmart) that I used to use to make bows for my daughter's hair and it only just occurred to me to use it for cards now - I'm so glad I didn't throw it out LOL!



Here is my NOT monochromatic card. A bit on the simple side but still like how it looks.



Please let me know what you think. I appreciate any and all comments! Thanks for looking!

Halloween Haunted House

I created this (not-so-scary) haunted house for my Magnolia-licious secret sister. I cut the house out with my cricket and the winter wonderland cartridge (love the designs on this cart). The papers are by Debbie Mumm that I picked up at Joanne's. I colored 2 Tilda's and have them peeking out the windows. They both have finished trick or treating and are still in costume.



I also have Edwin peeking out one of the windows on the side of the house.



Here is a closer view of the Tildas in the window:

Witchy Tilda










I'll be sending this out along with some other goodies on Monday - 3 days late (ooops) but I had fun making this. I hope my secret sis likes it!?!?

Here is a card I made for the Mo's Digital Pencil Challenge blog. I just missed the deadline for that challenge but this card fits the Copic Creations challenge to color pumpkins.



You can find this image and many more here. I couldn't resist this cute little kitty who is ready for Halloween.

Recipe for this card: Digital image from Mo's Digital Pencil, copic markers, DCWV and SU, Martha Stewart punch, brads, and leaf stickers. Thanks for looking! :0)
