Ornament Package

I made some beaded ornaments this year, so thought I would make a package for them for my Dr. Monday MD project for the Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog.  Love the minis for the tags....perfect size!!!  Of course added some die cuts too!

You can find these along with lots of other fantastic products at Magnolia-licious:
MINI 3083 TILDA WITH HANGING STAR
DH 22 VINTAGE FLOWERS AND LEAVES DIES
DH 27 SO WRAPPED MERRY CHRISTMAS TAG DIE
DH 36 CHRISTMAS LACE DIE

My package is loosely based on the Octagon Box at Scor-Pal.
I didn't make an octagon, just a square using the following dimensions:
Acetate Sides:  8 1/2" x 7"  Score at 2", 4", 6", 8"
Top:  6" x 6" Card Stock  Score at 2", 4"  Turn one quarter and score at 2", 4" again
Bottom:  4" x 4" Card Stock  Score 1", 3"  Turn one quarter and score at 1", 3" again

Of course, I want to wish everyone a very happy holiday season!!!  Stay healthy and enjoy the time with your loved ones!!!

With the new year, I have decided it was time to switch gears.  I've been making cards for the last 20 plus years and feel the pull to work more with my sewing, quilting and now new hobby (addiction!!!) of beading.  I won't get rid of my stamping gear, but have resigned from the Magnolia-licious Design Team as of the first of the year.  Sweet Diana Crick the owner of Magnolia-licious has opened up so many new adventures and opportunities to me, I want to thank her so much for her generosity!  I have been honored to be associated with such talented gals on the design team.  It has been a fantastic ride and I hope to stay in touch with all my friends that I've been so fortunate to meet on these travels!!!

I also want to give a heartfelt thanks to everyone that has been so kind to stop by and encouraged me along the way!  I've always appreciated the support and the time taken to leave such nice comments.

Don't forget to enjoy every single day!!!

Crazy Fold Gift Card

This card for my Dr. Monday, MD is a little different that usual!  It is a really different fold and it creates two pockets.  They could be used for tags, gift cards or even cash!

I've used the MINI 3109 GUCCI TILDA for this card.  The perfect size for this design.  She is colored with Promarkers.  I had a page of these punch out flowers and frames that matched the paper, so thought I would make use of them.  They actually were not fun to punch out because they left all these little nibs on the edges that I felt I had to try and trim off.  Think I prefer to use the wonderful dies that I usually use!!!  Diana has a great deal and terrific assortment of dies HERE.

This is the inside with the pocket opening on the right side.
The double sided paper was cut 4" x 11".

 Lay the paper so the corners are on the same line on the Scor-Pal and score the entire length.

Fold on the score line and center the fold (there will be a little space on each edge) on the Scor-Pal and score at 6".

Too easy, huh???!!!!  Now it's ready for decorating.  This size will still fit into an A2 envelope.

Fun Fold Note Card

Dr. Monday, MD day.  Minis and dies and kept it simple to show off the bow and leaf borders.

Find these great products along with many more at Magnolia-licious:
MINI 361 DELIGHTFUL TILDA
DH 38 EDWIN LACE DIE 
DH 98 GROOMS BOW DIE

The card is 4 1/4" x 8 1/2" and scored at 4 1/4" and 8 1/2".   I've embossed the top flap, put in a couple score lines for accents and added the Edwin Lace border as trim.  (Not sure why it is called lace, but I like it!!!)  Fold the flap over and using a 2 1/2" circle punch or dies cut out the circle opening.  (It is folded, so you are only seeing half the circle.) 

On this flap I've added a 4" x 4" piece of card stock and the border again along with a Just a Note piece.  I've also adhered the Tilda and circles onto the top edge of this flap. Use the circle opening to center.  Another design that works so nicely with the mini stamps.  Tilda is colored with Promarkers.

The inside has a 4" x 4" piece of card stock with border trim too.  Lots of places for messages!

Friend Oval Flip Card

A card for Dr. Monday, MD...Minis and Dies!  Was inspired by the beautiful fall colors, especially the yellows and golds on the trees in our yard.

Items from the fabulous Magnolia-licious online store:
MINI A13 TILDA WITH MILLIE THE MOUSE
DH 49 SO WRAPPED TILDA LACE FOLDED TAG DIE
MB 54 PRIMULA DIE
MB 207 FABULOUS PHLOX DIE

The die cut flowers were from the Primula Die and the leaves were from the Phlox Die set.  Tilda and friend were colored with Promarkers.  The card and ornate dies were an Elizabeth Craft set.

One of the inspiration trees in the yard!

Diana has posted the new Waiting for Christmas stamps!!!  Lots of darling images to choose from in regular and mini sizes.  There are also some new fir branches, leaves, berries and flowers that are perfect for the upcoming winter cards we will be making.  Get your preorder in, so you will be one of the first to get them!

Thinking of You Minis

Happy Dr. Monday MD (Minis and Dies) Day!!!  I put a couple of the oldies, but goodies minis together for today's project.

Find these and other minis and dies at the terrific online store of Magnolia-licious:
MINI 224 LAZY SUMMER DAYS TILDA
MINI 504 STONE WALL WITH PILLAR
DH 19 MINI ZIGZAG AND SCALLOP DIES
DH 48 JUNGLE LEAVES DIES
MB 27 FAUNTLEROY CREST DIE
MB 206 LOVELY ASTER DIE

Cut the Fauntleroy Crest Die in half to place in two directions.  For the purple clover type flowers I used just the smallest of the Aster dies.  Almost looks like a clover flower!  The white flowers are from a small snowflake punch.  Tilda and the stone wall are colored with Distress Inks.

Diana always has such great prices, but she is having an even better sale of 25% off on dies!  Lots of fun things to choose from some of my favorite die brands:  Doohickeys, Memory Box, Poppy Stamps, Impression Obsession and more!!!  HERE is a direct link to all of them!

Really appreciate you stopping by and your comments!!!  Remember names are put in a drawing for a surprise package for comments left for the Design Team members.

Enjoy every day!!!

Fall Stationery Set

Are you ready for fall and school time?  Well I'm not excited for it to be here already even though I do love the fall.  It just doesn't last long enough before that next season comes!!!  So I hope you are enjoying the Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog Hop!  If you came from Becky Hetherington's blog I'm sure you saw something awesome.  If you came on your own, I would recommend heading to the Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog to get started from the beginning.

I've used some fantastic things from Magnolia-licious:
MINI 244 EDITOR TILDA
MINI 540 SWEDISH CHAIR
MINI 3093 TILDA WITH SPITZ POCKET
MINI 3061 TILDA WITH CHRISTMAS LETTERS
DH 75 PEONIES DIES
DH 9 SUMMER FOLIAGE DIES
DH 82 VINTAGE BOX LACING COFFEE DIE
DH 84 EDWIN'S RECTANGLE LACE DIE
MB 206 LOVELY ASTER DIES
MB 119 DELICATE FERN DIE

The Tilda gals are colored with Distress Inks on Watercolor paper.  I've added some pearls and twine for embellishments.  The Stationery Set was already done in the paper, so it was fun to just add everything to it.

Here is a Supply Box which has some compartments in it.  I kept all the decoration on top, so it would still fit in the stand.

 And this is a Pencil Box:

I am such a die addict along with so many other things, and Diana has such a great selection of dies amongst all the wonderful Magnolia stamps at Magnolia-licious.    Be sure to check out the new ones and the great prices along with her rewards for shopping at her store!

Hope you are getting lots of inspiration from the hop, that's all from me for now!  Please head to Katie Tate's blog for one of her terrific creations!

Thanks for stopping by!  I always appreciate your taking time to leave a comment and remember if you leave comments with the design team members you will be eligible for a surprise drawing from Diana at Magnolia-licious!!!  Enjoy every day!

Summer Flower Tilda with Botanic Frame

Love this new frame set!  So many different uses and variations can be made with it.  Of course I had to make it 3D, but it would be really nice even flat or for a monochromatic card.  Will have to try that too!  Dr. Monday MD is over at the Magnolia-licious™ Challenge Blog today.  Be sure to check out what Barb Hardeman has done too!  So here is my Mini and Dies card!

Find these at the wonderful Magnolia-licious™:
MINI 265 SUMMER FLOWER TILDA/MINI 3032 WATERCAN TILDA
MB 255 BOTANIC FRAME SET

The frame has a background piece, the viney and floral part plus a separate flower die and another leafy die that you could stamp a small sentiment in.  I cut off the leafy edges and used them for filler around the frame.  What a fun set and I love the size of the flowers too!  The frame is the perfect size for the minis too!  I started out with a base of dark green then ran the frame through with a lighter green, white and a piece of aqua to get to get the pieces to pop up.

Mini Summer Flower Tilda is paired with Watercan Tilda also a cutie!  She is colored with Promarkers and I've used a Darice embossing folder, spellbinder die and a no name butterfly punch.

Thanks so much for checking in and thank you for all the kind comments!!!  Enjoy every day!!!

Tilda Longstocking Friend Card

Dr. Monday MD day and I had some papers left on my table from the last project and figured why not use them!  Pippi Longstocking was one of my favorite stories as a kid, so loved when Tilda became a Longstocking too!!!

Find the following at the Magnolia-licious Store:
MINI 228 TILDA LONGSTOCKING
DH 75 PEONIES DIE
DH 9 SUMMER FOLIAGE DIE
DH 73 JOLLY TAGS DIE
IO 55 LEAFY BRANCH DIE
PS 837 DELICATE CHAIN DIE

Instead of actually using the Delicate Chain Diecut, I used the leftover edge.  Makes a nice little border that I used on the top of the little banners and the bottom of the Jolly Tag. Tilda Longstocking is colored with Promarkers.  Along with the above dies I did use Spellbinders ovals and a friends die.  Added some Antique Linen Distress Ink to age and some pearls.

If you haven't checked out the new website redo at Magnolia-licious™, please do!  So nice to see the great layout and everything is so fresh and new!

Thanks for peeking in!  Always appreciate your comments!  Enjoy every day!!!

Magnolia Notes

I made a nice tablet holder at Crafters Haven in Minneapolis the other day.  For my Dr. Monday MD (Minis and Dies) project, I took it home and added some more things to it.  Had to make it 3D of course!!!  Loved the Graphics 45 paper and thought the minis would work well on the postcard type paper.

You can find the Minis and Dies at Diana's great Magnolia-licious online store:
MINI A21 TILDA WITH LACE PANTS
DH 44 SWIRLY LACE DIE
DH 84 EDWINS RECTANGLE LACE DIE
DH 93 SWIRL DIE
PS 807 GENTLE LEAF DIE
MB 203 NORRLAND FLOWER DIES

Did a little aging on the papers with distress ink.  Tilda is colored with Promarkers.  Also some pearls added.  Didn't get a chance to jazz up the inside, it was very plain, so didn't photograph it.  The tablet size is 6" x 9" and just glued onto the inside back cover.  The cover is made from chipboard covered with the Graphic 45 paper.

Now Barb Hardeman has been busy creating more fabulous treasures!  Stop by her blog Stampelicious to see the adorable note cards and box she made showcasing the minis!

If you are looking for some more inspiration, be sure to check out the design team cards and projects at the Magnolia-licious Card Gallery.  Link is HERE.  You will see lots of great ideas using both past and present Magnolia stamps and others.

Thanks so much for stopping  by and I appreciate your comments!  Enjoy every day!

Sweet Birthday Tilda Card

 

Our Sweet Little Tilda is floating in on a balloon to wish someone Happy Birthday!!!  Dr. Monday MD day with minis and dies!

Some fun dies and mini Tilda are from Diana at Magnolia-licious:

MINI A16 SWEET TILDA WITH BALLOON

MB 146 WHIMSICAL FLOURISH DIE 

MB 203 NORRLAND FLOWER DIES

I've added some white gel pen for accents and a thread bow.  Also used Spellbinder oval dies and Stampin' Up! oval punches.  The paper is some from a long time ago from Deja View.  Tilda is colored with Promarkers.  I've also stamped some light green dots around too!

There is another special for the 2nd Volume of the Doohickey Die Club.  Click HERE to check it out and get an order in.  The first round had sold out!

Thanks for stopping by!  Enjoy Every Day!

Heart Window Thanks!

Used the wonderful new Heart Window!  Perfect size for the Minis or could even put a real picture in it!  This is my project for Dr. Monday MD using Minis and Dies.  Gotta love those dies and the variations that can be made with them!

You can find these lovelies at Diana's terrific online store Magnolia-licious:
MINI A19 SUMMER STRAWBERRY TILDA
DH 55 HEART WINDOW DIE
DH 48 JUNGLE LEAVES DIE
DH 61 STRAWBERRY DIES - leaves
DH 75 PEONIES DIES
MB 202 BLOOMING VIOLET DIES
MB 66 PEPITA BORDER DIE
MB 27 FAUNTLEROY CREST DIE
MB 201 A LITTLE THANKS DIE

I've used a couple of strips of the Pepita border to make a lattice type pattern on the bottom.  The Fauntleroy Crest actually has the middle covered up and just the tendrils show.  It is a nice border die for guy cards too!  I've used the Strawberry Die leaves for the leaves for these flowers.  Thought they were a good size to go with the Peonies.  The center of the flowers is one of the dies from the violet set.  I've also used a Cuttlebug embossing folder and Spellbinder dies.

To make the Thanks stand up from the frame, I cut five layers of the thanks and put them together with a two way glue pen.  Gave it some dimension.

If you missed out on the last Mini Club, there is a new one set up and you can check it out HERE!   Great way to add to our collections and at a such fantastic price!  Diana is a generous soul, so you can be sure to find lots of goodies included!!!

Thanks for stopping by and Enjoy Every Day!

Thank You Tilda

Time for Dr. Monday MD (Minis and Dies) and I've used some new ones!

For these and other great products check with Magnolia-licious.  Following are the ones I used:
MINI A21 TILDA WITH LACE PANTS
DH 48 JUNGLE LEAVES
DH 3 LILY OF THE VALLEY
DH 84 EDWIN'S RECTANGLE LACE
ANIMAL OF THE YEAR PAPER PACK

Love these new jungle leaves dies.  I've used two of the three that come in this set.  Also the Lily of the Valley are so sweet.  Edwin's Rectangle Lace dies come in a set of three also and I've used two of them here.

The word stamp is a Stampin' Up stamp, the embossing folder is Sizzix and the label die is a spellbinders die.  Tilda has been colored with Promarkers and I've used a white gel pen for accents along with some ribbon.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy every day!

Edwin and His Friend

Here with Edwin and his little friend Tin Tin for Dr. Monday MD at the Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog.

Find the stamps and dies at Diana's fantastic online store Magnolia-licious: 
MINI A2 EDWIN WITH TIN TIN THE DOG
PS 838 MINI PICKET FENCE DIE
MB 122 SMALL ALDER TREE DIE
or MB  143 GRAND ALDER TREE DIE

I've used the small alder tree here, but the Grand Alder would work just as well.  I've given a link to both.  Been a while, but colored Edwin and Tin Tin with Distress Inks.  Fun to get a paintbrush in hand again!  Found some "doggy type" papers to use on this card although I covered up all the paw prints in the dark brown background.  Did find I had some paw print brads though.

This Edwin is part of the Animals of the Year Collection and there are so many adorable images in this collection.  Love the dragons!!!

Since I am such a fan of dies, I was so excited to see a Magnolia Doohickey Die Club package offered.  Ordered it right away because this will be limited.  My understanding is you won't be able to buy these secret dies individually later and even if we could, this is still a great buy!  This is a pre-order and limited, so I would suggest to get on board right away if you are interested.  Click HERE!!!

Finally enjoying some lovely weather.  Hope everyone else is too!  Thanks for stopping by!  Remember comments left are in the drawing for a surprise prize from Diana.
Enjoy every day!

Vintage Sneaky Tilda Card

For my Dr. Monday MD card this week for the Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog, I played with the new pre-made flowers along with some roses like I made on the last card.

Here are the fun products from Magnolia-licious:
MINI A20 SNEAKY TILDA
PS 816 SMALL MADISON WINDOW DIE
DH 22 VINTAGE FLOWERS AND LEAVES DIES
MB 122 SMALL ALDER TREE DIE
F17 VINTAGE GRASS
F2 FORGET ME NOT FLOWERS-LIGHT BLUE
F4 FORGET ME NOT FLOWERS-WHITE
F12 GREEN TRANSPARENT LEA
ANIMAL OF THE YEAR PAPER PACK

Again the roses were made using the Vintage Flower dies.  The Green Transparent Leaves worked nicely for my background for the flowers and loved the Vintage Grass to tuck in for some height and filler.  The Transparent Leaves were a tad bright green for this project, so I just sponged some darker green ink on them.  It is great when we can adjust things to what works for us!  Both of these embellishments come on covered wire and I didn't want to just cut off the wire, so wrapped them around a dowel to create some little coils.  These were just a few of the new additions at the store.  Click HERE to see the others.

I didn't really want an actual window, so I just cut out the muntins (or grids) out of the Small Madison Window die to make a  frame to put the "picture" of this sweet little Tilda!

Also used the Alder tree as a filler too!  This is the smaller Alder tree, but there is also a larger full one called MB 143 GRAND ALDER TREE and I find they both come in real handy to fill in with the flowers.

Now this is Sneaky Tilda, but I don't think she looks sneaky at all, just too sweet and cute!!!!  I've colored her with Promarkers and added a touch of white accents.  I love to color and at times like to just sit and do that, but find when I want to color something a little quicker, the minis are perfect for that and so easy!

Loved the new paper pack!  What a nice variety of small prints that are perfect for cards.  Pretty little Forget Me Not Flowers on some of them like the one I used on this card!

Thanks so much for stopping by and as always I do appreciate your comments!
Enjoy every day!

Red Roses for a Little Lady

Little red roses for our sweet mini Tilda for Dr. Monday MD (minis and dies)!  Yes I did make the roses to match the ones in the image.  I used the Vintage flower dies to make them.  Easy, just curl the petals up tight!

The wonderful products from Diana at the Magnolia-licious online store:
MINI 250 TILDA HIDING ROSE BOUQUET
DH 22 VINTAGE FLOWERS AND LEAVES DIES
DH 93 SWIRL DIE
DH 37 TILDA LACE DIE
DH 73 JOLLY TAGS DIE

So fun to add the little swirls to the flowers and leaves.  I just cut the pieces apart and tuck them in where it needs a little fill.  Hard to see, but I did layer the white tag on black.  I wanted just a little showing, so tracing around the die on the black paper, cut it out and it gave just that little bit of edge.  Kept Tilda simple with the coloring because wanted the roses to pop!

There are some new dies in the store to check out HERE!  AND some exquisite already made flowers to add to your cards too!  Those are HERE!  Can't wait to get them and try them out!  Stay tuned!!!

Over at the Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog see the Design Team inspiration and find out details how you can join us for a chance at generous prizes and awards too!

Enjoy every day!

Spring Heart Tilda

Another Monday and Dr. Monday MD!  We are sure looking for spring around here, but it sure seems to be escaping us.  The robins look quite confused....along with us!!!!

Cuties from Diana's fantastic  Magnolia-licious online store:
MINI LF 06 TILDA WITH SPRING HEART
DH 49 SO WRAPPED TILDA LACE FOLDED TAG DIE
DH 76 CLOVER WITH FLOWER DIES

I've used the double tag so really a person could just use a card front and stamp the sentiment inside the folded tag!  Used the clover flowers again to show how different they look when more layers are used and I also tipped the white flower edges with a Promarker for some color.  Easy to do and really changes the look.  I used Summer Garden papers from DCWV.  Nice the scallop edge was already there! 

 Check out the new Animals of the Year Collection coming soon.  You can pre-order to reserve yours!  Click HERE to see both regular and mini stamps in this collection.

There are also some great new dies coming!  Click HERE to check them out and pre-order!

Be sure to take a peek at sweet Barb Hardeman's blog Stampelicious!  She has been making some fantastic 3D projects with the minis and shares some tutorials too!  So many inspiring ideas and who doesn't love boxes for little presents and CANDY!!!!

Don't forget the challenges at the Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog!  Click HERE!  The details are there for you to share your creations and a chance to win generous prizes from Diana!!!  There is also great inspiration from the DT members and links to their blogs.

In the Pink Clover

Here is my project for Dr. Monday MD (Minis and Dies).  These clover dies make the cutest little flowers that fit nicely with the mini Magnolia images.

The lovely items I used from Diana's Magnolia-licious:
MINI 25 SITTING TILDA WITH BUTTERFLY
DH 76 CLOVER WITH FLOWER DIES
DH 71 SPRAWLING FERN DIES
MB 165 CHERISE LABEL DIE

Oh my, when I put the picture on the blog, it hit me.........reminds me of Pepto-Bismol because of the pink!!!  Oh well, rather appropriate for the Dr. Monday card ain't it!!!!  These clover flowers are just one style that can be made with these dies.  Just love the shape!!!  Looks like little hearts gathered in a circle!  When used with many layers they do make a nice round clover flower too.

 This fancy Memory Box label frame sets off the simple ovals to easily use a mini image.  Click HERE to see the wide variety of images available.  Tilda is colored with Promarkers and the background embossing is a Cuttlebug embossing folder.  I've added some pink rhinestones for a little sparkle.

You'll want to check out the SENSATIONAL Spring/Summer Kit that Diana is offering!  A generous amount of quality and fun items for an especially low price!  Click HERE to go directly to it.  Don't know about you, but I LOVE getting those kinds of packages in the mail!

This is my prescription to start the week with some home remedy card making therapy!  Hope you have a wonderful week!!!

Enjoy every day!!!
