Cookin' up some Love !

Hi there... It's Friday, time for another use up the inventory challenge #16.  This weeks theme is "Hey good lookin, whatcha got cookin",  I figured this little kit that I had from a swap fit right in perfectly.  This is "Baking Tilda" and I don't see her in stock right now but I am sure if you email Diana at Magnolia-licious she will see what she can do.  I have used the  Swirl Doohickey cutting die that you can get at Magnolia-licious also....I have to say I am really please at how well this cut.  I have used Bazzill for my mat, the heart print paper is from Nitwits.  The cooking paper and the brown backing are from my kit so I have no idea what they are...except cute !  Tilda is colored with copics, with stardust stickles added to her socks, wings, cookies and hair ribbon.  I have shaded her with Distress Ink.  The little sentiment is from LOTV. Flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts.  I would like to invite you to stop by Christina's, Danielle's, Rene's and our newest member Sandy and see what magic they have worked for this challenge.  Hope you have a great Firday and a fantastic weekend !

You put the SUN in Sunflower

Happy Monday and a beautiful one it is here in AZ......upper 60's and sunny what more could you ask for in January.  I have a couple of much needed days off I tell you it is just go go go around here, sometimes I wonder how I have time to work ! I had my little pup fixed this past Friday so I have been keeping a close eye on him so we have been in the craft room a good majority of the day.  Tomorrow afternoon it is DGD's basketball game clear on the other side of town.


For my card today I have followed the sketch at Just Magnolia by Donalda.  My image is Tilda holding an Sunflower, and a little bee that is also from Magnolia, I don't see them in stock right now at Magnolia-licious but I am sure if you contact Diana she can help you out.  Have you checked out the new Mini Maggies they are just adorable.  At Magnolia-licious Highlites they wanted us to do a recipe challenge:*4 Flowers*3 types of patterned paper *2 Magnolia images (any image by Magnolia qualifies/ ie. accessory, background, tilda/edwin, animal, sentiment, etc.)*1 Ribbon.  My background papers are from Nitwits. The corners are the 3rd part of the papers as well as the 4 flowers and are from Laurie Furnell.  Sentiment is computer generated.  At the Magnolia-licious Challeng blog, Cabio has given us a color challenge to use green and orange.  And last but by no means least at 7kids College Fund they wanted us to challenge ourself...I challenged myself to color in the grass something I have never done and need more work on :)  My images are colored with copics.  I have added glossy accents to her shoes, and stickles throughout for bling,  The sunflower and bee have fun flock on them for depth.  The sky was done with chalk.  Lace is from my stash.
Thanks for coming by hope you have a great evening !

Thinking of You ...what a wonderful thing love is ♥

Happy Friday to you !  Hope you have had a good week....mine was a little hectic in the beginning but has settled down...seems like it is just go go go all the time !  It is that time again when we are using up our inventory and this time I used a card kit I rec'd from a swap on SCS...thanks Linda !  I have no idea of the name of this little Tilda but she sure is cute. I have colored her with copics and shaded with Distress Inks. I added stickles to her hat ribbon, purse, collar and hair ribbons.  The sentiment is computer generated.

Inventory Challenge #13

TGIF oh my goodness are you ready for this weekend?  I am so ready for this week to be done.  My card today is really using up the inventory I have on hand....I have had this image colored since I don't know when and thought I may as well use her in a card.  She is a Sarah Kay image...I believe her name is "Zoe gazing at the butterfly" she is just so relaxed and peaceful looking. You can pick her up from Tab @ 7 kids college fund. This week Chirstina wanted us to use 4 flowers, 2 ribbons and 4 different patterned layers.  Be sure to stop by Christina's, and  Danielle's  blog to see the awesome creations they are come up with.  Rene may be back with us this week.   My papers are from My minds Eye, the bella bella collection.  I have colored my image with copics.  I have stickles to her flowers in the basket and the little butterfly, her hair ribbon and hat ribbon have glossy accents for the silk shine !  I used my Nestabilities labels 4 to cut her out.  Ribbon, lace and charm are from my stash.   Roses are from Wild Orchid Crafts.  The little sentiment came from Create with TLC where my good friend Sharron is a new member on the DT !  Congrats Sis I am so happy for you ♥
Here is a side view so you can see the depth.
I followed the sketch at Friday Sketchers but did not get this posted in time.
