Magnolia Advent Calendar

Hi Everyone!  Today is day 21 for the Magnolia Advent Calendar.  I am the host today and I'm happy to share with you my project.  It's a joint project with my 2 daughters.  They helped me make this Gingerbread House.  It is definitely not perfect or look professionally made.  But my daughters' and I had fun making it and adding these sweet Magnolias to the house really adds something special.  I hope you like it!

Supplies used:

1 Gingerbread House kit from Michaels Arts & Crafts

Lovely Fence Doohickey Die

Tilda with Two Little Gifts

Tilda with Lovikkamittens

Pixie Tilda

Jingle Jangle Tilda and Edwin with Sack doesn't seem to be in stock at the moment at Magnolia-licious.

Ready for Santa!!

Thanks for visiting my blog today and thanks for any comments you may leave.  Merry Christmas everyone!

Tilda With Little Rudolph

Hi Everyone! Just popping on quickly today to show you a card I made with the cutest Tilda stamp called Tilda With Little Rudolph.

She is so cute!  I'm loving these Magnolia papers that I used on my card today. They are not currently available at Magnolia-licious unfortunately and neither is the tree border die from Memory  Box or poinsettia doo hickey die. But if you like them, I'm sure they can be ordered for you.

Love her!  Well that's it from me today.  ** Don't forget about the Magnolia-licious Highlights challenge currently going on.  Details can be found here.

I will enter this card at the following challenges:

2 Sisters - snowflakes
Craftyhazelnut's Christmas Challenge - reindeer
One Stop Craft Challenge - Christmas friends
Fussy and Fancy - I Love Christmas
Jingle Bells - anything goes (Christmas)
Stamping with the Dragon - anything goes
Tilda's Town - celebrate Christmas

Ciao for now ;) xo

Little Darlings Inspiration - It's a Celebration

Hi Everyone!  This is Angela and it's my turn to post at the Little Darlings Inspiration Blog.  Our theme this month is CELEBRATIONS.

So today I made a fun party card using Party Hardy from the new Saturated Canary Winter 2012 rubber stamp release.

I've used mainly purples on my card but for some reason they photographed very dark and the color looks almost brown unfortunately.  Otherwise, I'm happy with how this card turned out.  My flowers are by WOC and the papers I used today are by Lilybee Designs - Picket Fence paper pack.  My image was colored with copics: E11, E00, E000, R20, B06, B02, B000, B0000, E19, E18, E17, E13, R85, R83, R81, RV10, W3, W1, W00, BV13, BV11, BV00, BV000, E35, E33, E31.

Here is a closeup:

Well, that's it from me today.  I hope you enjoyed my card today and can let me know what you think. Thanks and have a great day! xo

Tilda With Puppy

Hi Everyone!  Have you received your Christmas Magnolia Ink issue? This issue comes with a free  stamp and boy is it ever so cute!  I had to make a card with it:

I'm not sure if this image will be sold separately at some point.  But if you purchase the current Christmas Issue of Magnolia Ink, you too can get this adorable image for free.  You can get your copy at Magnolia-licious.

I have been using craft paper on alot of my projects lately.  I love the way it looks, especially with holiday images.  Reminds me of christmas packaging I guess.  I also used the Santa Claus paper pack from MME - purchased at my local Michaels Arts and Crafts.  I also used a Christmas sentiment cling stamp from Recollections.

** Reminder **

Don't forget about the current Magnolia-licious Highlites Challenge and blog hop.  You could be eligible to win 2 great prizes.  See the details HERE.


Well, that's it from me today.  I hope you liked my card and can let me know what you think.  Have a great day everyone!
