60's Tilda Birthday Card

Lovin' these minis for the A2 size (4 1/4" x 5 1/2" folded) card that I like to make!  I've combined some old things with the new minis and frame.

Water colored the Mini #385 60' TildaMini #517 Bench with Distress Inks. The DP is some old paper I had in my stash called 29th Street Market by My Mind's Eye and the Birthday stamp is an old one from Uptown Stamps.  The frame is Spellbinders Lacy Squares and I've added some Hydrangea flowers with some leaves from Martha Stewart punches.  Also used a white gel pen and the Cream Pearl Pen by Viva Decor for the centers of the flowers.  Love how these drops self-round!!!

November Calendar Page

If you are following along on the Magnolia-licious Highlites Hop today, you have arrived from Barb Hardeman's fantastic blog.  If you have come on your own, you will want to go to Magnolia-licious Highlites to start at the beginning.

My month was November for the Calendar we had so much fun putting together for Diana.

I've used #276 Tilda With Lantern, #568 Winter Forest, #1416 Snowflakes which I got from Magnolia-licious.  Please contact  Diana at Magnolia-licious about availability on these.

All the stamps were stamped in gold pigment ink and Tilda, the words and the trees were embossed with gold embossing powder.  The frame is a Spellbinders die cut out in gold metallic paper.  The icicles and snowflakes are Martha Stewart punches.  I've punched the icicles in the gold metallic paper and also acetate.  I put Stickles on the acetate icicles.  (That's why the reflection on the photo.)  Tilda and the trees are water colored with Distress Inks.  The background paper is Magnolia Something New, Something Old.  Also used white Liquid Applique on Tilda's hat and cuffs.

The top was left open on the frame to slide a picture in as an option instead of having the words.

I'm thinking if I got started now, I could make one Tilda themed page each month and by the end of the year would have a complete calendar for next year!!!

Thanks for stopping by and following along our fun little hop.  Would love to have you take the challenge and create some calendar pages too!  All of the details are at Magnolia-licious Highlites.  And as always appreciate any comments you take the time to leave!!!
Enjoy every day!!!

Many Minis


Had been working on some tag examples for Diana using the Magnolia Minis.  Had so much fun coloring with distress inks and adding Crystal Lacquer, some gel pens and Stickle accents.  Had to get them in the mail, so quick took the pictures which aren't so great, but I figured I would show them anyway.

Also made a couple of samples putting some mini's together.  Again nothing fancy, but gives an idea of how cute they are together too!  These examples are about 3" x 3 1/2".

Gingerbread Tilda, but not a Christmas Card

Love this Gingerbread Tilda stamp and I didn't want to just put her away.  Since she is holding a basket of hearts, I thought she could be used past the holidays too.

I've used the Spellbinders scallop and plain heart dies, Cuttlebug heart embossing folder, Hero Arts word stamp, and a Punch Bunch 5 flower punch.  Added some white gel pen, Cotton Candy Stickles and some Crystal Lacquer.

The sweet Gingerbread Tilda is right HERE  at Diana's Magnolia-licious Store.  I'm thinkin' she would go well with Easter and Mother's Day themes too!!!
Have colored her with an assortment of ProMarkers.

Thanks for stopping by!
Enjoy every day!!!

Edwin's Snowman

Happy New Year's to everyone!  Wishing you all a fun and fabulous year to come!!!

For the Magnolia-licious Highlites Challenge for January 2011, Design Team member Cheryl Rowley has come up with a fun recipe challenge for us.  Click HERE to find out all the details.  You too can join in on the challenge and have a chance at free Magnolia stamps!!!

One of the parts of the recipe was using 3 pattern papers.  That was a little different for me, but luckily Mindy Baxter had sent me a Basic Grey Jovial Paper Pad, I had some wonderful pattern papers to use that went so nicely together!  She also sent the white flowers that went well with the paper too!  Thanks Mindy!!!

I've used Edwin's Snowman stamp, Miss You stamp and the Poinsettia DooHickey Die from Magnolia-licious.  Please check with Diana about Edwin's Snowman, it is from the Winter/Christmas 2007 Collection.

Water colored the Snowman with Distress Inks and paper pieced his scarf.  Cut out the ovals with a Spellbinders die, added some Stickles for a little glitz, some flowers, ribbon, cording and a charm.  Isn't this a different one using flowers with a snowman???!!!!  :)

Enjoy every day!!!
