Mini Monday with Lucky Edwin

Hi Everyone! Happy Memorial Day to you. I am currently at a picnic at my Aunt's house enjoying the first sunny day all weekend. We've had nothing but pouring rain and chilly temperatures during this long holiday weekend.  I actually had to build a fire in my wood burning stove to take the chill off.

Well, thanks for joining me today for Mini Monday at Magnolia-licious.  Today I used two stamps that fit perfectly together and that is Lucky Edwin and Golden Creek Background both in mini form.

I found a WANTED template, a REWARD template, and SHERIFF star off the computer and just printed them out on my color printer to embellish my card with. Aren't they fun?

Well, it's time for a new challenge today at the Magnolia-licious Challenge blog and our challenge is to make a boy card or card for a boy.  So here is what I came up with:

Tilda with Love Potion

Good morning! Today I have a new Magnolia card to share with you using Tilda with Love Potion from  the 2013 Love Collection.

She's so cute, I love her hair.  I've colored her with the following copics colors: E13, E11, E00, E000, R20, B95, B93, B91, B000, E53, E35, YR23, Y23, Y21, Y000, RV23, RV10.  I've also added a bit of extra shading and highlighting with prisma colored pencils.

Magnolia-licious Blog Hop

Hi Everyone!  It's time for the Magnolia-licious Highlites monthly blog hop.  Our theme this month is LOVE and we must create something other than a card.  So this month I made 2 different types of gift boxes that I plan to give to my daughters for Valentine's Day.

 First up is this adorable cupcake giftbox:

I used WOC flowers in purples and pinks.  Also I used pearls to embellish around the flowers and cupcake bottom.  This lovely Magnolia image is from the 2013 Love Collection by Magnolia and she is called  "I Am In Love." She is currently available at Magnolia-licious along with the So Wrapped Lovely Folded Heart Tag Doohickey die.

Next up, I made a heart shaped paper gift box:

Again I embellished with more flowers from WOC and a ribbon flower and crystal picks that I picked up at Joanne Fabrics along with the ribbon pearls.  This Magnolia image is also from the 2013 Love Collection by Magnolia and is called "Tilda Blowing Hearts." You can pick her up at Magnolia-licious also along with these gorgeous new papers from this Love Collection and the Memory Box lowercase letters that spelled out love.

Have you heard of the Alex and Ani bracelets?  Well I bought each of my girls one for Valentine's Day.  They fit in the box nicely, don't they?  I hope they like them.

Please see below for the blog hop order.
