Midweek Magnolias - Anything Goes with an option of Easter


Happy Hump Day, Friends!

The Midweek Magnolias are back with a new challenge. This fortnight our theme is…

“Anything Goes with the option of Easter”

Join us for the challenge and follow the theme and our roolz and you may have a chance to win a surprise from Magnolia Sweden.


My card features “Little Miss Tilda.” She is adorable in her little bunny suit.  I colored Tilda with Distress Inks’, cut her out and attached her with fun foam.

My designer papers are from Maja Design of the New Haven collection paired with Bazzill cardstock.


The card shape is a Go Kreate XXL frame. My bunny was created with white fun foam and a bit of Pink Stickles for his nose and ears. 


Here is a close up of Tilda.

I hope I’ve inspired you to join us for the challenge. Have a great week.

Magnolia-licious Easter Blog Hop


Hello Magnolia, Fans!

Today we are hosting an Easter Blog Hop with 2 chances to win a $20 gift certificate from Magnolia-licious.

I am kicking off this Easter Hop, so whether you came here from the Challenge Blog or not you are in the right place for us to share our Easter crafts inspiration with you.


For my project I created a cute little Easter basket box using my Silhouette Cameo and I added some adorable die cuts with inspiration I found on Pinterest and Magnolia’s most recent DooHickey die club kit. My daffodils were a last minute addition so I included some of the darling DooHickey grass die cut along with my Lawn Fawn grass.


My basket motif features “Tilda picking Carrot” from the Sakura collection. I created an Easter banner with the DooHickey dies hanging among the basket on craft straws that I made with cardstock and pink polka-dot ribbon to match my pastel color theme.


I put some pretty glittered eggs in the basket and created a “digging bunny” die cut from circle, scallop and oval dies. Sister bunny is digging for goodies in the basket and has become a bad influence on her little brother that is sitting watching her search for carrots. LOL…so comical and adorable. My grandkids are sure to love this one.


I had such fun making this project. I get a ton of inspiration from Pinterest and this one came from a Stampin’ Up creation by Amy Koenders. I just had to add this cutie to my basket.


Here is a close up of Tilda colored with Copics and some pretty pearl pollen around her frame.

Midweek Magnolias - #133 Mother's Day or Special Lady


Happy Hump Day, Friends!

The Midweek Magnolias are back with a new challenge. This fortnight our theme is…

“Mother’s Day or Special Lady”

Join us for the challenge and follow the theme and our roolz and you may have a chance to win a surprise from Magnolia Sweden.


My card features “Volang Dress Tilda” from the “Boho Collection” along with a PTI sentiment for a “Special Lady” to follow our challenge theme.

My designer papers are from Pion Design Studio of Memories collection paired with Bazzill smooth cardstock. I colored Tilda with the no-line stamp technique which gives my image a soft appearance.


Tilda’s frame was created with a Joy Crafts die as is the Butterfly border matched set and corner dies. I distressed the papers, dies and vintage seam binding with Seedless Preserves Distress Ink. My flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and Prima. Zva Creative provided all the rhinestone bling to my butterflies and the wire heart charm is from my stash.


Here is a close up of Tilda.

I hope I’ve inspired you to join us for the challenge. Have a great week.

Hugz,
