Tilda with Wine


Finally had a little time to finish up a card. I started this one about a week ago and just haven't had time to finish it. This is Tilda by Magnolia Stamps from Diana Crick's, soon to be online store! The house is by AlottaRubberStamps. I used my prisma's to color the house and Tilda. I had the ds in my stash drawer and used Prima's for the flowers. RicRak, where else? JoAnn's $ bin! I used pop dots to give Tilda the 3D look.
Thanks for stopping by! Hope everyone is having a great week.

Halloween Card


I had so much fun making this Halloween Card! It took me a few days to figure out the placement of all my images and what I had to add, but I'm happy with the finished results. The pumpkins and moon are by RubberMoon I love their stamps! The cute Witch is by ThirdCoastRS, another great stamp site! And the house is by MFT. I did cut off the iron work at the top of the house, not that I wanted to, just couldn't cut it out right! I used my Prisma's to color everything BUT the house! I am proud to say, for the first time, I used my COPICS!!! WOOOHOOOO! I was happy with the way it turned out! I used my yellow Spica pen to color in the windows. The ribbon is from Michaels last year, Halloween clearence bin! Fun card to make because there is no limit on the color combinations you can use for Halloween!!!
Thanks for stopping by! Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Who's that Witch?


I love coloring and putting together Halloween cards, It has to be the colors. You can use any color combination and get away with it! This image I received from a friend and couldn't wait to color it. The image is by My Favorte Things.
I had all the paper and ribbon and buttons. Used DMC floss on the buttons, and my Fiskars Threading Water border punch. I colored it with my Prisma's and used some chalk for the shadowing.
Hope everyone is having a great week!

Tilda


I was playing with a background today. I use my TH distressed inks and then stamped my swirls on top of that and added alittle bit of white dots to it. I liked the way it turned out so went looking for Tilda with the bow in her hat. I colored her up to match my background. I used my prisma's and googone. Ribbon I had, from you know where, and then i just tied bow to the strip of ribbon. Flowers are prima's sent to me by my friend Denise. I added a dew drop to each center. Used my nesties for the ovals. I like the way she turned out.
Thanks for stopping by, and hope everyone has a great week!

Inchies


I made these for a swap. But I don't think I'll be making anymore, anytime soon! These are inchies, and I have never worked on such a small space! LOL, It was hard to find small enough things to put on them, I had a few, bellies were just about impossible! But I have them done, I look at them now and think, oh! cute, and thats as far it goes. At least I can say I've tried it!
Hope everyone has a great weekend!

BD Card Envie


I made this envie to go with Mariah's Birthday card. I didn't have a pattern for the 6x6 envie at the time, so I made my own. I had to cut two pieces for the envie. The flap is seperate. I used my MS border punch for the strip on the flap. I used my nesties with scallops for the center and moved it up just far enough to tuck the flap in. Waiting for some magnets! Card fits in there just perfect.
Thanks for looking and Happy FRIDAY!!

Mariah's Birthday Card


Its hard to believe August 7th will be my first grandchilds birthday. I remember the day she was born. I remember how excited I was! After she was born, everyone was tired or shell shocked and I was the first one to feed her. It was a very long labor! I remember taking her in my arms and talking to her and telling her how special she was and all the things we were going to do together. At 2 weeks old, I took Mariah to meet her great gramma and grampa. 250 miles her and I drove. She was perfect! We stopped once for a feeding, she loved to ride! Mariah stayed with gramma every other weekend for one year. It turned out Mariah was very colicy! I figured mommy and daddy needed a break from sleepless nights. Of course colicy or not, she was perfect to me! She will be celebrating her 7th birthday! Where does the time go? We still have so much fun together. I don't get to see her as much as I would like now, they grow and get involved in dance, swimming, soccer and have their friends. But the times we do spend together are so special! Oh, and she loves to stamp with gramma!! She is really good too! LOL
I had to make a card that was extra special for her on her Golden Birthday. The card is 5 1/2 x 5 1/2. This is Tilda with the balloons. Background paper is by DaisyD. I punched the green and pink (Bazzill cs) with my MS border punch. Dew drops on the side The large jeweled brads are by Heidi Swapp. Flowers by Prima. The 7, I'll get back to you on that, for the life of me I can't remember who its by, but they are fantatic! Almost everything came in the June or July kit from WishOnAScrap. Tilda with balloons by Magnolia Stamps. I colored her with my Prisma's and goo gone. I always paint the wings with So Soft fabric paint by DecoArt and a tiny paint brush!
Thanks for stopping by and checking out my creations!
