Happy Halloween Little Pumpkin !


I sure hope you all had a fun Halloween... I did just stayed home and handed out candy to all the little monsters that came by !!! So while I was in between little witches and ghosts I was making this little card. I have used two stamps both are from the So Spooky collection, #553 Moon with tree branch and #395 Witch Tilda with pumpkins you can get them at Magnolia-licious. I used the sketch over at Midnight Madness, MMSC25. I really like it and it worked perfect for this easel card. This will also qualify for Magnolia Down Under where they wanted distressing


DP is Basic Gray Erie collection, images are colored with copics E33, E37, E55, E00, C00, C1,C3, C5, C7, Y11, Y17, YR04 YR16, Y21, Y26, YR21, YR61V04, V12, BV08, R20, BG93, BG96. . I cut the spider web with my wish blade. The ribbon is some I just picked up at the LSS that was with the Basic Gray collection. The ribbon charms are making memories. The gems are some I had in my stash. The sentiment is computer generated and distressed with Tim Holtz antique linen and frayed burlap distress inks. I added some Diamond stickles to the lace on her dress and around her sleeves. The moon has yellow stickles around it as well for effects and bling. Here is a close up of Tilda for ya !

Have a great day

Tilda gathers straw



Hi and thanks for coming by to visit me...I have been having a great week here in California, for those of you who don't know me I am a native CA girl transplanted to AZ. I have been enjoying some real quality time with my real good friends Sharron and Kathe. We have shopped and shopped and ate and played the perfect vacation in my book.

Now on to my card this is Tilda gathers straw....that I snagged from Sharron LOL ! We did alot of imaging swapping this past week ! I made this card for the Friday Sketchers challenge
This sketch is from Claudia and I will use this one lots and lots I am sure as it just a fun sketch. This also qualifies for the KL Stampin N Scrappin challenge to use fall colors.

Tilda is colored with copics I did not list them this time sorry...her little wings are done in Diamond Stickles and the top of the straw has flower soft. I got the webbed ribbon (think that is what is called at the LSS here) The paper are from the Deja Vu stack that I had already. Thanks for coming by and have a great day !

A clean and simple card !


Hi and thanks for coming by to see me today ! Magnolia-licious Highlites is having a little challenge to create a clean and simple card. I cut my card base on the wish-blade and then embossed it and went over the embossing with color box pink chalks. I used the Tilda with garland you can get her from Diana here. I cut her out and attached her with some pop up dots for some depth. This is my frist attempt at coloring the blacks with my copics...needless to say a few images hit the shredder LOL ! Copics used are RV11, RV13, RV14, R20 RV0000, C1, C3, C5, C7, C9, G02, YR61, E00, B34, B41. I added some Baby pink flower soft to her garland and some diamond stickles on her blouse and shoes for a little bling. Ribbon was some I had I believe I picked up at Joann's. I appreciate all your comments and any tips for coloring the blacks. Have a great crafting day.

Tilda lights the way....









Hi everybody I sure hope you are having a good week so far ! I have had a very relaxing week. I am really enjoying the beautiful weather we are having here.
I made this card for a card kit swap I am in and it is helpful if you can show what you did with the kit. I followed the sketch from Mojo Monday madness 107.
This will also qualify for the Magnolia-licious Highlites challenge where this month the talented Suzanne challenged us to make an Easel card. I am also going to use this for the Homepage challenge for the Magnolia Yahoo group where the card was to be a winter theme.
This was a really fun card to make. The DP is Imaginisce Polar Expressions. This little Tilda with Lantern #276 can be purchased here
I have colored my image with copics..E00,E31,E33,E35,E37,E55,R000,R11,R37,R39,Y17,Y21,YR21,YR61,C1,C5,BG93,G0000 and the colorless blender. I have added stickles to her wings and the lantern. The fluffy little balls on her hat have Polar white flower soft on them for depth. The little shaped brad ornaments on the base are from Deja Views, and the tag is a little wooden tag I got from Joann's in a package of 12 for $1.00...gotta love the dollar bins LOL ! Ribbon is from my stash that I had purchased from Recollections a couple of years ago.

Here is a close up of Tilda.
Thanks for coming by and I hope you have a great weekend.

Oh how I love Christmas !


Hi everyone thanks for coming by ! I hope you all have had a fun weekend and had some time to just relax and do whatever it is that makes you happy. I have had a great weekend, lots of family time as it was my DGD birthday party on Sat. then church today ! Life is good and I had some time to actually get involved in one of the challenges for WCMD over at Splitcoast Stampers....I entered into the Magnolia one which the lovely Suzanne Dean challenged us to make an ornament so this is what I did I can just see so many different little images on these how cute they will look. I used my new Dinner Tilda she is so cute, you can get her here. I used a snowflake that I had laying around from a couple of years ago that I got from Michael's. I have colored her with my copics and the colors used are B000, B00, B12, E00, E33, E35, E37, E55, R20, YR21, YR61. I used a Gelly Roll white pen for highlights and added some rhinestones to her bling. Have a great crafting week.
