Magnolia-licious - Mini Monday

Hi Everyone! It's Mini Monday at Magnolia-licious.  Here is a cute winter card that I made using mini Tilda and Edwin Skating:

A close-up:

Have you seen the new Doo Bee Pops from Magnolia?  Magnolia-licious has a huge selection of different colors.  They are great for adding some pop and dimension to your cards.  I have cut out a snowman using the orchid white doo bee pops and the hat is made with the peony doo bee pops.

That's it for today.  Thanks for visiting! Have a great day!

SCACD - Guest Designer

Hi Everyone! Today I'm back with another SCACD guest designer post. I am soooo ready for spring and have made a stair step scenery card in this theme.

I've used a couple of Elisabeth Bell images today and one from Make It Crafty.  I've made the trees with a Memory box die and punched out tiny flowers with a hand punch to make the spring flowers. Here is a closer look:

I've enjoyed making this spring card.  I hope you all liked it too.  Let me know what you think if you can. Have a great day!

Hi Everyone!  Hope you are doing well today?  I can't believe how quickly this month has flown by, before you know it, it will be Spring. I can't wait! I have had enough snow to last a lifetime. Last week, my kids were home from school for winter break and they kept me pretty busy so I didn't post as often as I wanted.  But I'm back this week and have loads to show you!

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:

A closeup:

And here is the inside of my card:

I hope you'll play along with our challenge this week so you can be in the running for a special surprise from Magnolia-licious.  Thanks for taking the time to visit me today.  Please stop by tomorrow for my Wee Wednesday posting.
