Random Magnolia

Hi everybody!
Just sharing a random card that I made a few weeks ago. Usually the Tilda's are made on a 8x8 card but I wanted to try making a 4x6 card. I actually have a lot of Tilda cut-outs which I made when I was practicing how to color the stamps using Copic markers. Copic markers are my saving grace when it comes to stamping :) I did try to color using Distress Inks - which was an epic fail.. The same with colored pencils. Although Copics are really rich when it comes to colors, once you master the strokes and the pairing of colors it's easy peasy.
Enough with the babble :) Here's the card:

Tilda in a Yellow Dress
Materials: Hero Arts Layering Paper, Prima Flowers
Stamping: Magnolia Stamp, Hero Arts Stamps, Stampendous Stamps, Memento Ink, Hero Arts Hues, Copic Markers, Memento Markers, Copic Blending Paper
Others: Stickles, Distress Ink, Misc Lace

Thanks for visiting!

Mangolia Mania Challenge - Ribbon or Lace

Hi everybody!
What happens when you don't update your blog for a week? More cards that is :)
A week ago I bought a few meters of these acetate lace from a local craft store here in Singapore. I opted for white because at least I can color it with some mists to conform with any color to coordinate the cards I am making. Although, I am not sure if I can actually mists acetate lace... But hey, white is a pretty safe color so I am good to go :)
Here's my entry for the Magnolia Mania Challenge

Tilda on a Bike

Hi everybody!
Golly! Singapore weather is literally insanely hot! I hope a little rain comes soon to soothe down the scorching heat.
This week I have created several Magnolia cards. My favorite stamp shop in Singapore, JDA, had a sale which included Magnolia stamps. I won't say how many I bought, let's just say there will be extreme dieting happening this month to make up for the spending :) Apart from the great sale, I was also lucky to take home a couple of Hero Arts stamps during their raffle draw. So yay!
Here's one of the cards I made and I am entering this card to three challenges:

• The Official Magnolia Challenge (Faux & Real Stitching)
• Magnolia Down Under Challenge (Paper Tole or 3D)
• Magnolia Stamp Lovers (Summer Colors)

This is a pretty cool card if I say so myself because I only used Cardstock, Stamps, Distress Inks and Mists. I wanted to challenge myself and just make my own simple patterns to bring this card together.

TOMIC number 2

I didn't make it to the cut-off of the challenge but nevertheless I was inspired to continue on and create this card. I wasn't able to make it since I colored one of the backgrounds I did with Copics and took some time.. :) .. And also I didn't hav a blog to start with. But I would definitely join in the next challenge.
I was inspired to create my own patterned paper since I cannot find a paper in my stash that satisfied me for this challenge. I made the background by stamping Hero arts stamp and coloring it with lots of Copics!
