Mojo Monday Sketch # 77

Today I have another Easter Card using the same American Crafts paper....I colored Tilda and she is so pretty...I have been putting crystal affects on my Prima flowers and I really love the look....For this card I started out following the Mojo Monday Sketch #77 and this is what I got...

The ribbon belt is 7 gypsies and I cant remember what the ribbon is...But this paper is a few years old....So happy to be using it up....I have a few more Tilda projects with this paper that I will be posting over the next few days....Happy Stamping.... This is a close up of the flowers and leaves....I have really enjoyed playing with some of the candy we have to dress up our projects....

Ingredients:

Paper American Crafts, Image Magnolia Easter Collection, Sentiment SU!, Flowers Prima, Dies Nestie Circle & Scallop Circle, Leaf MS punch, Copic Markers & Primsa Pencils

A Friendly Challenge

My friend Kellie challenged Camille and I to make a card with the circle background image from Magnolia....So this is what I came up with and it's my first Easter card so far....

I put this together super fast...But Camille beat us all she was done first...Both images are from Magnolia the paper is super old from I have no idea where and prima flowers with robins nest in the center....I cut out the background image and put it on the sizzix scallop circle...Simple right?Do you ever think that your project has to much dimension....It seemed like this did but I didn't use my usual SU stampin dimensionals I used some other ones I had and they just seem to high....I don't know.....Have a great day and thanks for stopping by....

Love Love Kiss Kiss

I made this card for Valentine's Day for my DH but of course I didn't get it done in time so he received a different Magnolia card...lol...I took a little more time on this Love Card I made the pin with some glass beads and pearls, tied some ribbon through a button and added it to the tag which I cut with my sizzix die....I had to cut the Dollie so it would fit and then I stitched around the edges of the card....I really do love this card and the colors were just perfect....I used chatterbox papers that I found at price busters....The card size is 4X8

My stamping buddies came over and we exchanged Valentine goodies and this was one of the items I gave to them....I made the pins, tags and added rub-ons to the bags with everyones name....I really love how they came out and both Kellie and Camille were happy with them....Well thanks for stopping by and I hope you have enjoyed my creations....Would love to hear what you think....Happy stamping....love love

A Few Valentine's Cards!

So I know that I'm a little late with these Valentine's Cards but now that things have settled down I can post them....We had a great Valentine's Day my wonderful husband cooked a wonderful breakfast and dinner for me....He even did the shopping and planning of the meal which I guess was the hardest part....LOL....He also printed out a menu for me....Very sweet he was and I got some new PJ's it was a very nice day....So let me tell you about the cards I made....


For this card used some old BG paper which I still love....I used quickutz for the photo corners and the "Be Mine"....I used the Cuddly Buddly circle sentiments....Also I used the Fiskars circle punch, some chipboard for the hearts and some SU ribbon....And of course the image is Magnolia and the notebook paper is also from Magnolia...I think I listed everything if I forgot something and you have questions just let me know....This card was a 6X6 size which is a little bigger than I like to work with but I had to much to put on there so had to be a big one....

What a simple card this was....I used the Sizzix scallop heart die, did a little paper piercing and added a simple I heart U stamp for my sentiment....Of course the image is Magnolia again...LOLThis was a card that already had the hearts cut out and it was kind of like a watercolor type of paper....My friend Camille gave me these cards which I had not done anything with so I had a try at it....I used the labels die, Magnolia heart and Tilda by Magnolia.....Really easy card....Again...LOL

Well I hope that you like the Valentine's Day cards I have been making and sorry that I didn't get them posted sooner....I do have one more Valentines card, which really is my favorite so I will post that one tomorrow....I hope you have enjoyed my creations and would love to hear what you think....Thanks for stopping by and happy stamping....love love

Be Mine!

For this card I again used Tilda with tag and an old SU be mine sentiment, the pattern paper is also old SU paper....I was happy that I was able to find a few flowers that matched just perfect...I used the lace fiskars circle punch to make the circle she is sitting in....I think she came out perfectly....I have had a hard time trying to use up this paper which I think is strange cause I just love the colors....I don't know what my problem is but what do you do....lol....Hope you enjoy the card and thanks for stopping by....love love

A Few Valentine Cards!

For today's card I used two Magnolia Stamps (Tilda w/ Tag & Post Feb 14Th) and I just love them both....I also used stampingbella mwah kisses stamp for the tag and the chocolate box from alota rubber stamps (Thanks Camille for this great stamp I just love it)....I used copic markers to color the images along with koh-i-noor pencils and OMS...I used both white and red lace which just seemed to finish off my card perfectly....

Oh do I really love Edwin more....I think not as much as I love Tilda but that stamp from SU seemed to fit just perfect with this card....I colored and inked Edwin and cut him out.....I used the Valentine Sizzix flourish die and the word window punch....I stitched around the edge of my card after I had embossed it with the CB Swiss dots....I think this will be a Valentine card for one of my boys....Not sure which one yet....lol....Well I have a few more in the works right now that I hope to wrap up tomorrow....Hope you enjoyed my cards and let me know if you have any questions....Thanks for stopping by and happy stamping as always....love love

Cherry Tilda Card & Candle

I just love this Cherry Tilda she is so cute....I have had the hardest time finding cherry papers so I had to make my own....I just stamped the Cherries on white cardstock and colored them in with copic markers and added come crystal glaze....It worked out perfectly.....She is too cute...


I made this candle for my girlfriend Camille for her Birthday in September....It came out so nice but I had forgotten to take pictures of it before I gave it to her....So it took awhile before she brought it back for me to photograph....It really is such an easy project to make a candle.....When I first learned how to do this several years ago I must have made like twenty....It's so fun when you learn how to do something new....

This is all I have to share for today....I have been working on a few new projects with some new images....I will share them tomorrow....My friend Nicole is releasing her new line sometime this month or beginning of next month not just sure on a date yet....The images are adorable and I think you will love them....So stop by tomorrow for a peek at the new girls....Have a great night and thanks for stopping by....Love Love

A Few Birthday Cards

This is a card that I made for Tanja her birthday was in December and I had a package to mail to her well lets just say that by the time I mailed the package there was a birthday card, Christmas Card, Christmas gift and New Years card all added to her box....How funny is that...Anyhow this card was made out of some old scraps of paper that I had left over from a Scrapbook Page I did a long time ago....I loved it and I think so did Tanja....

This card was a birthday card I made for my friend Shawntell....This is my very first colored Tilda....My girlfriend has been giving me a hard time that all my girls are white....As Tiff says you need to give those girls some color....So here is what I got....not to bad but as you can tell I still need to work on doing this....Maybe my next one will be better....Thanks for stopping by....Love Love

Traveling Tilda

Hello it's me again....LOL....Can you imagine the month is almost already over....Valentines day is right around the corner huh....Oh I love Valentines day....I have been busy making lots of Valentines cards this year....oh what fun....
I made this Tilda awhile ago for a friend that was having a bad day....I always want to be there for my girlfriends but with us being in the Navy we move to much and I don't get to be around when my BFF needs me....So I send her a card....LOL....really simple card with easy colors....Enjoy....I hope to get pictures taken tomorrow of my Valentines cards so I can share....Have a great Super Bowl Sunday....Happy Stamping....Thanks for stopping by....love love

Happy New Year Cards

See I have been working on my crafts.....I made several of these little simple Happy New Year Cards using Tilda and the winter kit....I also used some different colors for my paper that I usually don't use....I must say that I really did love the way it all came together....

These are all the same for the most part just a different Tilda and colored a little different....I also embossed the Happy New Year sentiment using Versafine back ink and clear embossing powder....It sure make it look so nice I love this elegant kind of look.....

I made this one first and I like it but I guess I really like the simple ones that I made from the scraps of this card....I really need to pull out my sewing machine more....it sure gives the cards such a nice finished look huh....Well I'm going back to work on editing more cards so I can post them....Have a wonderful day and happy stamping.....

Mustard Moon...

I came across these Mustard Moon Papers that I have had since I worked at the scrap store and have not done anything with them yet....Well they seemed the perfect colors to make fall and Thanksgiving cards with....Then I found the perfect match of colors with my copic markers....I do love when this happens.....so here are a few of the cards I came up with....




The images is from funkykits this is Daisy isn't she just the cutest thing ever....Oh I love her
This is another image from Funkykits and she a great image to color....How cute is she...

Here is Farmer Tilda....I haven't make a card with her in so long I could help put put her on this paper also....I also just love this sentiment from Verve....Hope you enjoy and I also hope to post more cards....I have several made but don't seem to find the time to post to my blog....I am currently working on Christmas cards and gifts....Oh what fun this time of year is....Thanks for stopping by....

Pink and Brown Tilda

Finally back from California and settled in....I had so much fun while I was in California oh and I ate way to much so now I'm trying to be good to make up for it....I sure do miss real Mexican food that I grew up eating in California....Hawaii is awesome but Mexican food here is just not right....I guess there's no place like home....ha ha....I went shopping at Michael's, Jo Ann's and Bed Bath & Beyond.....Oh I had so much fun and things are so inexpensive on the mainland compared to here n Hawaii....I picked up several new MS border punches for my girlfriend and I....We can't even find some of this stuff here in Hawaii....So enough about all that....I have been busy making cards and coloring images....Oh I do love this hobby....I made this thank you card for a friend and now I want to make a few more....She came out so cute....I just love this one


She is my very favorite new Tilda...How cute is her coat....I can't color her enough....I have not posted but I have been making lots of stuff....I will get some pictures taken today so I can post to my blog again....I have missed you and hope you enjoy my card.....I sent it off to a friend....Thanks for stopping by love love

Smile!

So I have been MIA once again and gosh things are crazy around here....We have company in town which leave today and I'm leaving for California on Thursday.....On top of that I'm still trying to recover from Dominick's Birthday and Halloween....Although I'm sure a little retail therapy while in California will make up for all the craziness.....I cant wait to hit all the great craft stores, ikea, Target, oh and this isn't even including the food....Oh real Mexican food....I'm getting myself hungry already....ha ha....So back to the card....This is one of my very new Tilda images and she is just so cute....I have had this pattern paper for a long time and so I pulled it out and found that coloring Tilda to match wasn't hard at all....What a simple card huh....I was going to add some stitching but I have purple in the machine right now and I was just to tired last night by the time I finished this card I went to bed....I have a few more that should be coming soon....Have a great day and thanks for stopping by....Love Love

Christmas Joy!

I made this card after seeing a card on Claudia's blog I changed it a little and used a different Tilda but I wondered if it was alright to copy her card....I have been going back and forth weather should post the card or not....I made this card a few weeks ago and I emailed her to ask her permission but I never heard back from her which I'm sure she is a very busy lady....So I hope that I have not broken a rule or offended anyone that surely is not be my intention at all....Actually I admire her work so much....She is very talented....As if I could be that good right....Anyhow I wanted to share cause I just loved the way this card came out....This is the only Christmas Tilda I have so far.....I used my copic markers to color her, some vintage lace and I think the paper is Creative Imagination but I'm not sure since it was given to me by my friend Camille and bazzil cardstock....The card really is very simple but just adding a little stitching sure does make such a difference....Hope you like.....Thanks for stopping by....Love Love

Standing Fall Tilda

Isn't she so cute....I love this image....Well I guess every Tilda I love but she's a new one so I guess I just love her more right now I guess....Oh and of course I love this Martha Stewart Punch....It's just adds such a nice touch I think....I have been coloring with my new color Koh-I-Noor pencils and Gamsol and I'm just loving the results....How easy the colors blend....I just love the way it comes out.....As you may notice I have used my super old 2004 pattern paper from SU! can you believe I still have some...I have plans to finish up so projects today and try to post everyday this week....We will have to see how that goes.....

Happy Hallowen!

I'm super excited about this Tilda Halloween card....It's my first and my friend Tanja was so sweet to to sent me this image.....Isn't she too cute....SO I put this together yesterday....I had so much fun....I pulled out my little sewing machine and stitched the edges, used CB embossing folder to make the black spider web, Magnolia Tilda image, I used some black embroidery floss to lace up her books, and the ghost and tombstone are buttons, the ribbon I got from a local scrapbook store and that's about it....The coloring and cutting of the image was probably the hardest part of the card but so worth it.....I was so excited to have this card finished....So what do you think....

High Hopes Blog Candy going on over at Bunny-Zoe blog.....it's for two cute cute stamps....I really loved these images and the boys would love them to....Trust me they don't get that excited about stamps but these I think they would love.....So today is the last day so check it out....
