Sweet Angel with Star

So much for sticking to flatter cards for mailing!!!  I just love doing things with dimension!!!  I started with the printed paper from the mini Sweet Christmas Dreams Paper pack!  Loved this print and the soft grey with a brown tint to it.   Tilda is colored with ProMarkers and Touch Markers and I also used the greys with the brown tint.

Of course the wonderful Magnolia products I used are from that nice Diana at Magnolia-licious!
#3083 TILDA WITH HANGING STAR
#22 VINTAGE FLOWERS DOOHICKEY DIE
#46 VINTAGE MISTLETOE DOOHICKEY DIE

I'm really excited about how Diana is helping us to be able to afford the new collection with her special prices and store credit system.  She is always looking out for ways to help us!!!  Just like the last collection, there are so many cute stamps and I can't wait to start playing with those too! 

Also have used the new framelet die from Stampin' Up, oval Spellbinder dies, a corner rounder, a Sizzix embossing folder, Stickles and seam tape for a bow.  The Wishing You stamp is from an Inkadinkado set.

Off to see if I can get any more cards done!  I'm just so slow, I should start Christmas cards in January!!!

Enjoy every day!!!

Pearlized Christmas Angel

One more Christmas card made.  Anyone know what happen to the time???!!  I've used the pearlized Stardreams cardstock.  Love how the dies cut this card stock and also how it embosses!

The best place to get your Magnolia products is Magnolia-licious!  Awesome selection and wonderful people!  And now she has also added some fantastic dies to the collection!  Diana offers the best deals she can and you can even build up a store credit for your purchases!  Check everything out HERE!!!

For this card, I used MINI #1010 CHRISTMAS ANGEL and colored her with ProMarker and Touch Markers.  You can find her plus the Sparkling Tilda combo special deal right HERE!  Also used the DooHickey #22 Vintage Flowers and the Memory Box #16 FROSTY BORDER  plus a Spellbinders tag and circle die.  The embossing folder is Cuttlebug.  The crystals are Mark Richards.

I am quite a fan of dies anyway, but love how these new Memory Box dies cut such a fine detail and then fall right out of the die.  Diana is also carrying some of the Cheery Lynn dies AND some Marianne Dies!!!  Wonderful shapes to add to the DooHickey dies!!!

This is a very busy time of the year, but want to remind you of the fantastic Wrapped Up Holiday challenge at Magnolia-licious Highlites.  You have a chance at winning some fabulous prizes, and you wouldn't want to miss out!!!  So it will be worth it to take the time to enter a project and you still have time!  Click HERE for all the details!  Check out the post above it too because the Snowflake Count is also still available too!

Off to finish some more projects!!!
Enjoy every day....no matter how hectic they are!!!  :)

Cards, Cards, Cards!!!!

With doing classes for so many years, I always cut up extras to have on hand.   I've made many of them into cards.   There are also many one of a kinds too!  I've been going to put them on Etsy but haven't done so just yet. (such a procrastinator!)  I do have an opportunity to be in a craft show this weekend, so thought I would post for the local people.  I'll have well over a hundred floral punch cards (in plastic boxes) and also many other cards to choose from at special prices!!!  These would be great to have on hand to give or package a few up to give as the gift itself!!!  Everyone always needs cards!!!
