Little Darlings - Shaped Cards Theme

Good morning everyone and Happy Sunday! This is Angela and it's my turn again to 

post at the Little Darlings Inspiration blog. Our theme for this month is to make a shaped card 

(not rectangle or square).  Well, I don't have a card to show you but an 

oval picture that I had made to show at CHA.

I used an oval wooden plaque that I got from Walmart and painted it brown and sanded 

the edges a bit to rough it up. I glued my stamped scene to the top and added some

 chipboard letters to spell out Fall and voile all done. I used several of the 

CHA newly released images for this scene. They are: At the Pumpkin Patch, 

Child's Wagon,  Chloe Sitting (dog), Hay Bale, and Sophie Sitting (cat). 

Please visit the Little Darlings Rubberstamp Store soon for these fun new images.

Well that's it from me today.  Hope you enjoyed my project today.  

Have a great day! xo

Saturated Canary - Wendy

Hi Everyone! I'm back today to show you one of the cards that I made for the Little Darlings booth at CHA.

This is Wendy. Isn't she just the cutest thing? Little Darlings is now manufacturing the Saturated Canary Rubberstamps line. Isn't that great? LD has also come out with their own paper line designed by our very own Mindy Baxter. That girl has waaay too much talent! And I'm loving these papers, this one is called Chocolate Covered Cherry and is available for preorder at Little Darlings Rubberstamps.


Well, that's it from me today. Thanks for stopping by, I really appreciate your visiting me and leaving me such sweet comments. Thanks everyone!! xoAngela

Tilda With a Gift for You

Hi Everyone! Hope you are doing well today? Well, we just got back from vacationing in Lake George, NY.  It was lovely to get away even though it rained for a few days during vacation (but a little rain never hurt anyone). What a beautiful area!  We drove back through Vermont and we stopped at all the cute shops on the way. Now I'm playing catch up with all my emails. I know I'll miss something.

I'm also excited to let you know that there are some big changes going on with the Magnolia-licious DTs. Some really talented designers have been asked to join the Challenge blog team and a few of us from the team have been asked to join the Magnolia-licious Senior Team. I'm really excited to join this team and work with these amazing designers. Thank you, Diana, for the opportunity!

Magnolia-licious Challenge - Put on your ballet shoes

Time for another inspiration challenge over at the Magnolia-licious Challenge blog.  Take a look at our inspiration photo chosen by our host this month, Suzan:

Awww aren't they precious?  I miss when my kids were this age and loved wearing tutus.  Well as I looked through my collection of Magnolia stamps, I realized that the only ballet Tilda I have is Pink Tilda Ice/Ballet Princess an oldie but goodie from the 2008 Pink Collection.

I used 2 dies from spellbinders for the leaves and butterfly and the heart tag doohickey die. Papers by K&Co. and flowers by WOC. I used copics to color this image: B24, B21, B000, B0000, YR23, Y23, Y21, Y000, E11, E00, E000, R20.

Thanks for stopping by. Hope you are all enjoying your summer! xo

Tilda's Mountain Retreat

Hi Everyone! Whew, it's a hot one today so I am spending it indoors with the air condition on and coloring.  :)

Well, today I made an outdoorsy type scenery card.  I've had this cabin stamp for some time, I think it might be from I Brake for Stamps and I thought Fishing Tilda would pair nicely with it.  When I got my Turning Leaves stamp kit and saw that cute Moose, I couldn't wait to add him to my scene. Just love him!

I didn't use any patterned paper today as my background image was so large so I just used brown and green cardstock. I hope it doesn't look too plain?

I enjoyed making this card today and I hope you can let me know what you think. Thanks for dropping by. Stay cool. xo

Magnolia-licious Color Challenge

Good morning everyone!  Today at the Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog, my lovely friend Suzan is our host and she has chosen the colors red, white, and blue as our colors to work with this week. 

Here is the card I created for today:

This is Tilda Un Anchor from the Summer Memories Collection. Don't you love those cute little shoes she has on? Absolutely adorable!    I colored my image with copics and the colors are:  E02, E01, E11, E00, E000, R20, R22, R24, R27, C00, C1, C3, C5, C7, E35, Y23, Y21, Y11, Y000, B26, B24, B21, B000, E55, E53, E51.

I used Webster's Pages papers for this card and cut the boats out of the paper and placed them above the image as embellishment.  Also embellished with some stars cut out with my spellbinder dies.  That little wooden anchor embellie I found at AC Moores.

Well that's it from me today. I hope you'll join us this week for our challenge!  Enjoy your day!
