Lazy Summer Day's




Hi everyone,


I have a Tilda card that I made for the Copic Creations Challenge #6 Wood here is the site so you can join the fun also. They have some great Unity Stamp Company stamps for the prize.


I purchase my Tilda stamps from Magnolia-licious web site here


I hope you like it this Tilda is one of my many favorites OK I love them all but this little puppy she is holding is just to cute!


I colored 2 clear buttons with my bubble gum pink shimmerz and I think they turned out pretty good. It is a little easier to see in person.


Thanks for stopping by and I would love to hear what you think of my card.
Until next time take care.

Tilda Dreaming of a Vacation







Wow it has taken me forever to get a card finished. I have worked on this card all week and wasted so much paper trying to get it right. I guess I should not say wasted because I'm sure I will be able to use them on another projects but very frustrating none the same!Tell me what you think I'm still not sure about it. I really struggle putting my cards together. Being artistic does not come naturally to me. lol Thank goodness for the people that are artistic so that I can look at your work to draw ideas from you all.



Now hopefully I have not scared you all away and you will take a look and let me know what you think. Thanks so much for taking your time and I love to read your comments.

July Home Page Entry


Hi all,

I have a quick post tonight. I finished my card for the July home page contest. I seem to be on a roll with Edwins lately. I followed Jacques sketch for this weeks Friday Sketchers Challenge to make my card. I thought it was a great sketch.

I don't remember the name of the design paper I used to make this card. I cut the bottom off that had the name on it and now I can't find it.

Any way here is my card would love to know what you think of it.

Entry for Magnolia DT Blog Hop










Hi everyone thanks for stopping by. This is my entry for the Magnolia-licious DT Blog Hop you can read all about it here and follow the blog hop then join in and make your own entry what great fun! The design team made some really cute sets to inspire us and you could have a chance to win some of their sets along with a chance to win some more Magnolia stamps from Diana at Magnolia-licious for the grand prize. Whoohoo whatcha waiting for? lol
Stop by Jacque's Blog for a chance to win some fabulous blog candy!
Ok about my entry it probably doesn't look to much like summer but I wanted to use one of my new Edwins that I got from Diana at Magnolia-licious so I thought this paper suited a boy. I named my set after my youngest grandson Izzic. Izzic is Blaize's little brother which some of you have read about in a previous post. Izzic is all boy and loves to play outside in the summer and he usually ends up with bandaids all over him just like this little Edwin. I will post pictures of Blaize and Izzic so you can put a face to the name.


The design paper I used is from My Minds Eye


If you have time, let me know what you think and thanks for stopping.

Magnolia Cuddly Horse Baby Card







Hello all,

I had some time this afternoon to work on a baby card for my husbands niece. Tiffany and her husband Patrick just found out they are expecting their first child. So I wanted to make a special card for them. I tried sewing this card which is the first time I have ever sewed a card. I have been inspired by so many wonderful women in the Magnolia-licious group. I even did the inside of the card which is another first for me.
I am going to enter this card in the just Magnolia Challenge you can find here.

For some reason the pictures I take of my Copic markers seem to be fuzzy so I am going to list them since I didn't have to use to many here ya go:
Y000, Y11, YG11, B00, E59, E39, E13 and G21

Inks: Memento Tuxedo Black and Distress Ink Broken China

Design Paper by Moxxie called Blessed
Magnolia Cuddly Horse # 611 from the Love Collection 2009
You can purchase Cuddly horse here from Magnolia web site.
The other stamps used are retired Stamin Up stamps
Well I think that is it if you have time to leave a message I would love to here what you think.









Tilda colored by Blaize 7 years old


I just had to post this little Butterfly Tilda that my grand daughter Blaize colored. Blaize loves to color Tilda's just as much as I do. We spend a lot of time in the craft room together. I cherish every minute that we get to spend together.


You can purchase Butterfly Tilda at Magnolia-licious


Now like I said Blaize colored Tilda and I did the rest. Blaize loves to read so I thought I would make her a book mark. I added star dust Stickles all over her wings. The Girls Rock stamp is out of a Hannah Montana stamp set I picked up at Walmart in a clearance bin. The paper is Stampin Up.


If you have time to leave a comment that would be great. Blaize loves to read the comments.
