The Original Magnolia Inspiration Challenge

Hello Magnolia Fans!

The Original Magnolia Inspiration Challenge is back!
And this is our first challenge fro the year.

Theme is Spring + one DooHickey Die.
Now that's an easy one right? And I know everyone is waiting for Spring to come and it is just around the corner.

For my card today, I used a stamp from the It's Springtime Collection and use a few DooHickey Dies. I colored the image using Comic Markers and also with the branch and flowers.

Be sure to link up your cards before the 25th of March for a chance to win a prize from Magnolia!

So, Hello there, friends! It's nice to be back.  I know I've been MIA here in blogland for awhile but it is all because life got in the way.  And by life I mean work, family life and we also moved. 

 Anyway, I'm back with a Magnolia DT Blog hop.

  This time we are featuring the new collection called Sun Beam

*****

I made a simple card using Sun Beam Tilda and the sentiment that came with the collection. Copic Markers were used to color Tilda.

Now for the flowers.  I used some felt to make these beauties and Magnolia DooHickey dies.

I have fallen inlove with felt lately and I'm going to playing with felt in the coming weeks.

Here's another card that I just added  I know the bloghops has started but I thought I would add this card here becasue it is also from the Sun Beam Collection.  This is Tilda with Bunny and I used Distress Ink Reinkers to color this one.

Thank you for hopping by! Now it is time to hop over to my DT friend Maki

The Blog Hop will end this Sunday, March the 18th. 

And remember you will have a chance to 

win a secret prize from all the Magnolia DT Blogs.

So keep on hopping and leave some LOVE!

Good Luck!

Hugs,

Mae

Devine Tilda CAS

Hi there.

I have a quick CAS Magnolia card to share with you.  This is Devine Tilda from the waiting for Christmas Collection.  She is one of my favorite stamps because you can use her for any occasion.

I colored this image using Copic Sketch markers and tried to to a "no lines" technique.  It's been a while since I tried to do this technique.   I used Antique Linen Distress Ink pad to stamp the image. The DI is very light so bleeding or smudging isn't really my concern here.  I have seen Alice Wertz use Antique Linen on her images so I thought I'd give it a try.

Since DI's are not oil based, there are safe for Copic nibs.

Thank you for stopping by and I hope to see you again soon!

He loves me, He loves me not

Hello again!

 I'm back with a CAS card featuring He Loves Me He Loves Me Not Tilda Duo from the 

Lovely Duo Collection. This new release from Magnolia is now available in most of the stores and web-stores who carry Magnolia products.

 The designer paper I used for this card is one of favorites and it's from the Special Moments Collection called the Royal Swedish Feathers.

Tilda is colored using Copic Sketch Markers:

Hair: E 47, 37, 35, 31

Skin: E 13, 11, 00, 000, 000

Headband/Dress: BG 75, 72, 70  Y17, 15, 13

Flower: YR 27, 24, 21 Y15

Stem/Grass: G 99 94, YG 67

Petals/Shoes: W 5, 3, 1, 0, 00 

 

Thanks for stopping by and I'll see you again next time!

Have a wonderful day!

Tilda in Cozy Coat

Happy Friday everyone!

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Yes it is! For my card today,  I used Tilda in Cozy Coat from the Waiting for Christmas Collection. As I was about to color the image, I looked at my Copic color chart to see which colors I have not used a lot. And I noticed that I have not really used the

 BG 32, 18, 15, 13, 11, 10. So I decided to use those colors for Tilda's coat.  Luckily, I found a piece of card stock and patterned paper that would go perfectly with the colored image.

Here is Tilda up close.

Copics used:

Skin: E 13, 11, 00, 000, 0000

Hair: E 47, 37, 35, 33, 51

Coat: BG 32, 18, 15, 13, 11, 10, C 6, 4, 2, 1, 0

Gloves/Leggings: E 44, 43, 42, 41

Boots: BG 18, 13,  C, 6, 4, 2, 1, 0

Background: BG 10, 000, 0000

I kept the card CAS and I used some Mama Elephant Dies for this card. The sentiment is from 

CC Designs. 

Thank you for stopping by today and I hope you have a wonderful weekend!

Ribbon Tilda

Hello Magnolia fans.

Today, I have a card using an older Magnolia stamp.This is Ribbon Tilda from the Sweet Christmas Dreams Collection of 2011. This collection was released just a month or two after I started card making.  Tilda is colored with Copics and the flowers, leaves and twigs were cut using Magnolia DooHickey Dies.

I love the versatility of this stamp. I know that this is from a Christmas collection but you can surely use this image for Valentines or other occasion.
 

I will see you again soon.  Thanks for stopping by!

Have a wonderful weekend everyone!

Twinkle Star Tilda

Hello my lovelies!

I have another CAS card using one of the stamps from the Waiting for Christmas Collection. Isn't she just adorable? I colored Tilda using Copic markers and kept the card simple.

Be sure to check your favorite stockist for Pre-orders and availability of the the new Collection.

Have a wonderful day and enjoy the rest of your week!
