...rise and take a stand, standing hand in hand we shall rise above the ashes...

Ok last post for today...i promise!! I am just so excited about this card:) I got a new Hanglar & Stanglar stamp so i had to use her:)

I coloured her with copics and cut her out with a nestie. I then cut out the same nestie, cut it in half and used it as a mat.

My papers are PTI white, pretty in pink and the dsp all came from my stash, they were all scraps! I used my Martha Stewart punch for the snowflakes with some bella dots in the center.






My ribbons are both SU and i used my bow easy for the bow:) The sentiment is from PTI and was punched out with a SU punch.

I am entering this card in the following challenges

The sweetest thing- sketch
The Ribbon girl- pink and green
Lovely Hanglar only- anything goes
Just Magnolia and hanglar - my fave things (snowflakes and bella dots!)
Daring cardmakers- 1 image, 2 ribbons, 3 papers

...everyone's in it for something, greed....

Hey everyone, hows it going? Good here:) Getting excited about my cruise:)

For my card today i used a card kit i have had forever! I am not a fan of light colours but i like the way the card turned out:)

I coloured Tilda with copics and cut her out, then placed her on a nestie.

My papers are PTI white, dsp is from the kit and the orange is from my stash. The ribbon was in the kit but i know its SU pink pirouette. The buttons are also SU.




The butterfly and bling were in the kit.

Well i am off to hang out with my BFF:) I haven't seen him in weeks! Can't wait:)

HUGS!

...wanna go for a ride....

Ok so i never make cards after work...i never really feel like it. Well tonight i made 4!! lol I am all caught up on my DT's for the month so i decided to make a card just because!

I reached for a Hanglar image and i love this one! It reminds me of my Nona (grandma) and her chickens i used to play with when i was a kid.

I was looking through my paper and for some reasons these papers came to me...do i like these colours...ugh no...but i like the way they work with the image:)

I coloured Hanglar with copics and cut her out with a nestie. My papers are PTI white, Soft Suede and the dsp is just from my stash.

I used my new EK sucess border punch (i love it!) and some soft suede ribbon. Then i went on the hunt for flowers, wow i had some that matched! I also had some fuzzy brads that looked like flower centers and put them on them.

That is it:) I am entering this card for the following challenges....

Just magnolia/Hanglar- anything goes
Hanglar only- 3 flowers, 2 brads, 1 ribbon
Southern Girls- anything goes

Hope you are having a good night and good luck to Team Canada in the world juniors!!

Hey everyone, how ya doin? Things are good here. I am done all my shopping and everything is wrapped...so what should i do with my time?? Oh i know...i should make some cards ;) I really need some bday cards for work...so here i go!! I really should be making manly cards, but girlie cards are too much fun!!

This is a card kit (trying to use them up since i have more coming in! yikes!). I coloured tilda with copics, and placed her on some nesties. I used a spica glitter pen on her cherries and accented with a white gel pen.

The papers are Lovely Lilac, PTI white and the dsp came from the kit (i think its CTMH)

I found some matching prima flowers in my stash and added some bella bon bons to the middle of them. I also found some ribbon in my stash and finished it off with Short and Sweet by SU.

I am entering this card in the following challenges...
Paper Sundaes- cut it out
Sentimental sundaes- inspired by a song (purple rain)

HUGS:)

...i want to break free...

Its Sunday:) That means its time for another Corrosive Challenge:)

This week we have a simple sketch! Since i am done my Xmas cards for the year i thought i would work on some bday cards! I need these for work.

I pulled out a Magnolia card kit and went to town. I coloured Tilda with copics and cut her out and placed her on the ribbon stamp that came in the kit.

My papers are PTI white, bashful blue, certainly celery and the dsp came in the kit.


I punched out a piece of the dsp with a circle nestie and placed the doolie on it. I then put the images on that.

I punched out some SU swirls with certainly celery and put some pearls on them. The ribbon came in the kit and i found the primas in my collection of flowers!

I finished off the card with A little birthday cheer sentiment stamped out with a SU punch.

Head on over to the blog and see what the rest of the team is up to:)

HUGS!

...win big mama's fallen angel...

Its a Corrosive Challenge Day:) Today is a sketchy kinda day. Its a simple sketch so it should be easy for everyone:)

For my card i pulled out a Magnolia kit i had in my stash. I love the colours of this paper! I never make scene-type cards...so i thought i would try since there was a stamped image of the stove.

I coloured my images with copics and cut out the stove image with nesties, and just cut Tilda out. She looks like she is dreaming of cooking, i know who i am giving this card to for Xmas:)






My papers are PTI white, pretty in pink and the dsp is from the kit. The ribbon and snowflakes are also from the kit. I added some bella dots in the middle of the snowflakes to make them pop a bit. I used my spica glitter pen around the nestie...i should have used a white pen though...oh well!

Be sure to head over to the challenge blog and see what the rest of the team came up with:)

HUGS!

I coloured Tilda with copics and cut her out and sat her in a nestie.

Hey:) How is everyone doing? Its Thanksgiving here in Canada. I am off so i am doing some crafting:)

I used another card kit i had. I coloured Tilda with copics and cut her out and placed her on some paper i cut out with nesties.

My papers came from the card kit, so did the ribbon and snowflake brads. I added some bling from my stash in the middle of them







I finished off the card with some ribbon from the kit and the sentiment is short and sweet from SU that i punched with a tag.

I am entering this card in the Just Magnolia, Magnolia Down Under, Design Dollies and the sketch and stash challenge:)

HUGS!

...blackened in the air....

So who really gives out Thanksgiving cards?? I sent out 2 to my stamping friends...but other than that i don't! Oh well...i had this kit so i made this card!

I coloured Tilda with copics and cut her out with nesties.

I entered this card in 2 challenges...Magnolia Down Under and Just Magnolia.

My papers are Kraft, more mustard and PTI white. The dsp was in the card kit. The fence, ribbon and button were also in the kit.

When i was done the card i felt it needed something...so i was looking through my primas and came across these, aren't they a perfect match?? Love it:)

The sentiment is from Teeny Tiny wishes from SU:)

HUGS!

...stained glass cross staring down on me...

Its a day off and time to get crafty!! After i make a few cards i get going learning some 80's song on bass! :)

For my card i started with a card kit...then i realized i hated the paper in it so i changed the paper. I bought this paper at a LSS a few months ago, I love the spider web and the dots on the other side!

My paper is Pti white, basic black, rich razzleberry and the dsp is by best of california. Never heard of it! lol







The image was hard to colour because whoever put the kit together used not copic friendly paper:( But i did it...made it look the best i could. I used a spica glitter pen for the lining of the cape and bow tie.

The bling and house came from the card kit and i distressed the edges of the image.

The sentiment is from Teeny Tiny Wishes by SU:) (can you tell i love this set! lol)

Well i hope you have a great day!! :)

...don't tell me you wanted me, don't tell me you thought of me...

Happy Monday everyone:) Today i am making a showcase card for the Town Scrapper! I haven't made a Magnolia card in forever so i thought i would pull out a card kit and ink up Tilda:)

I coloured Tilda with copics and the tea cup as well:) I cut out the tea cup with nesties and sat Tilda on top.

My papers are PTI white, Baja Breeze, and the dsp is from the kit.

My happy birthday sentiment is from SU On your Birthday, i love the banners (if you haven't noticed i use them on almost all cards with a sentiment! lol)

The ribbon, buttons, flowers, bling and key charm all came in the kit:) There is enough in this kit to make another card!!

Be sure to head over to the Town Scrapper blog and see what the rest of the team has come up with and maybe do a little shopping while you are there:)

HUGS!

...jingle bell rock...

Happy Monday everyone:) I hope you have a super day!

Just so you know i am sure you will be seeing a lot of Christmas cards from me! I have soooo many Christmas card kits that i want to use before Christmas!! This is one of them:)

I love this Tilda, she is so cute! I coloured her with copics and cut her out and placed her on a cut out nestie.

My card base is PTI white with wild wasabi. The dsp is from the kit so i have no idea what it is. I love it though:)



I used a piece of silver cord across the dsp and finished off the card with dew drops that were on the card and some prima flowers and big buttons:)

I think the sketch is from Just Magnolias!

HOpe you have a great monday! I am off Tues and wed. so lets hope i get some crafting done:)

HUGS!

...crazy nights...

Happy Monday everyone! This time next week i will be in Montreal! Its a work thing but i am hoping to relax a couple days and eat some authentic poutine! yummy!!

For my card today i used a card kit i got in a Magnolia swap i am hosting. I loved the different papers for Christmas so i went with it!

I coloured Tilda with copics and cut her out with a nestie. It was hard to find a nestie to fit her in! ugh. I then coloured the edges with a copic.

My card base is PTI white with Chocolate Chip and Pink Pirouette. The dsp is from the kit.

The chocolate chip ribbon came from the kit and i added the pink piourette ribbon and did Joanne's buttony bow thing, but the bow is sad looking:(

I finished off the card with the snowflakes that were in the kit with some bella dots in the middle of them.

Be sure to head over to Squigglefly today, its Challenge day!!

HUGS!

...got the time tick tick tickin in my head...

Oh i am excited to show you this card! This is a card kit i got in a Magnolia swap!! :) Todays Challenge on the Corrosive Challenge blog is Halloween! If you don't celebrate Halloween you can use Black and Orange on your card.

I coloured Edwin with copics and cut him out. I was going to use a nestie but he is too tall!

My base is PTI white with Pumpkin pie and the dsp is from the kit. On the other side of the dsp were ghosts, pumpkins, etc..so i cut out a ghost and a pumpkin to put on here.

My ribbon is from Taylored Expressions. I love the goo border on the bottom, i wish i knew where it was from! It came in the kit too. As did the row of pearly things.

I finished off the card with Bats from the kit (i used my white gel pen to give them eyes) and the sentiment was in the kit also!

Be sure to head over to the Challenge blog to see what the rest of the team is up to!!

HUGS!

...i wanna lay you down in a bed of roses....

Happy Friday everyone!! Only a couple more days until the big blog candy reveal!! Are you brushing up on your lyrix???

I wanted to make a magnolia card because i haven't made one in a while and i always have so much fun making them:)

I coloured Tilda with copics and cut her out.

My base is PTI white with all other papers from Taylored Expressions Key Ingredients Kit.

I used my EK Sucess border punch for the bottom layer and i sat Tilda on some DSP and ribbon from the kit.


All the flowers were also from Taylors kit! Aren't they pretty colours??? Do ya think i went overboard with them ;) hee hee

I finished off the card with some dots from the kit and the sentiment is Teeny Tiny Wishes from SU.

I hope you like my card, i had fun making it:)

HUGS!!

Purple Anyone????

I love purple but rarely use it because i never seem to have any dsp to make a card with! So i just had to buy the new SU paper Cottage Wall!

I decided to make a Magnolia card this time because i already had little tilda coloured and she is wearing purple:)

I coloured Tilda with copics and cut her out. I then used my Teeny Tiny Wishes from SU for the sentiment on the tag.

My card base is Gina K white with Basic Black and Cottage Wall DSP.




I finished off the card with some Razzleberry ribbon, a bunch of primas and some pearl half backs i had lying around.

Hope you like her!!

HUGS!
