Happy Valentine's Day

 

It is Dr. Monday MD.....Minis and Dies.  Time to start thinking of Valentine's Day!  I've wanted to use this Heart Ensemble die for a while, and thought these cuties from the latest Magnolia Lost and Found collection would fit well in the bigger heart.

Find these at the Magnificent Magnolia-licious online store:
MINI LF 03 TILDA ROSE SCENT
MINI LF 09 TILDA'S DRESSING TABLE
DH 37 TILDA LACE DIE
MB 98 HEART ENSEMBLE
MB 180 MAGIC FLOURISH DIE
MB 203 NORRLAND FLOWER DIE

I've cut the Magic Flourish into pieces....love spirals to add to the flowers!  This flower set has three sizes of petals plus two leaf dies....great set!!!  Hard to tell on the photo, but I cut the mirror out in silver mirror card and put some crystal lacquer on the perfume bottles.

Be sure to check out the daily specials and other great deals that Diana has to offer.  HERE!!!
I'm such a fan of the dies besides the adorable Maggies, so always have a wish list going!!!

Thanks so much for stopping by!  Enjoy every day!

Lots of Doilies

 Doilies!  What a great theme for a card making project.  Always need a kick start to decide where to begin!  The Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog has this for our projects this time.  You'll find Design Team inspiration and how you can join in too right HERE!!!

I used some of my favorite lovely dies from Diana's Magnolia-licious:
DH 4 LEAF AND SWIRL
DH 8 DOILY FLOWER
DH 17 MISTLETOE AND SNOWFLAKE
DH 18 ROSE LEAF
DH 22 VINTAGE FLOWERS AND LEAVES
DH 31 MINI DOILY

The Mini Doily and the Doily Flower fit the theme perfectly!!!  Love the size of the Mini Doily because it can be used on it's own or more than one on the A2 (4 1/4" x 5 1/2") size card.

I've layered the doilies at different heights to give it more dimension.  The red background is embossed with an embossing folder.

Had the intentions of using these colors for a Christmas card, but see it really could be for Valentine's too!

Thanks for stopping by!  Enjoy every day!!!

A Few Cards

 This is a quick posting of a few easy cards.  Not a lot of stuff on them, so the cute images show up!  Of course, I did have to at least use some dies though!!!  Love the dies!!!
3099 TILDA WITH BIG CUP OF ICE CREAM
81 MB TWIRLED HEART BORDER DIE
MINI BUTTERFLY DREAMS PAPER PACK

Colored with Promarkers.  Used the Scor-Pal for the embossed frame and then sanded.  Word stamp is SU.  Added white gel pen for accents.

3043 TILDA WITH HEARTSPOTS
02 MB DELICATE VINE DIE
MINI PRINCE AND PRINCESSES PAPER PACK

Colored with Promarkers.  Word stamp unknown, but thought it went well with her heartspots! Used a couple of Spellbinder dies.

435 SUMMER CAKE
34 DH WILD STRAWBERRY AND FLOWERS DIE - tiny flower
66 MB PEPITA BORDER DIE
MINI BUTTERFLY DREAMS PAPER PACK

Colored with Promarkers and added some Crystal Lacquer to the frosting to make it shiny and some yellow glitter to the flames.  Word stamp is Hero Arts and also used a couple Spellbinder dies.  This little flower die I use so much.  It is great for this type of thing and also for centers of flowers.  Was just thinking Pepita sounded familiar and thought isn't that what they also call pumpkin seeds.  Hmmmm, the border does look like an outline of pumpkin seeds!  Yup!!!  Cute ain't it?!!!  There is your Spanish lesson for today!

The pearls and rhinestones were a nice extra little gift that came with the latest MagnoliaINK magazine.  There are always wonderful ideas and lots of project and directions in the magazines, but I especially liked this one and hope to try some of the projects in it.  You can get your extra free little gift and the magazine at Magnolia-licious along with tons of other great things with terrific deals and wonderful service!
