Magnolia-licious

Yeah, Spring has finally arrived, we have had consecutive days of sunshine, the washing machine has been maxed out and the grass has had it's first cut of the year.  I love Spring!

So, it's Wednesday again and back to team B at Diva's for the latest challenge, which is...

Magnolia-licious

So that's basically any stamp by the Magnolia company as your main image, including, Tilda, Edwin, or any of the animal characters they have. Simply to use a Magnolia die or design paper is not enough!

Now it's positively ages since I've done a Tilda card and all my Magnolia stamps are years old, but thanks to Mrs Laurie Magnolia, I now have more recent Tilda's - thanks Mrs M!

Sorry for the shadows - it's the sun!

So, my card, it uses a gorgeous Spring Tilda image, I've then used Tim Coffey, K&Co papers and Andrea Jayne, Hot Diggity Dog papers, Kraft, WOC flowers and some die cut foiliage (thanks Debs).  Colouring is by Promarker and the card completed with a PB sentiment and lagre pearls.

Challenges:
Sketch n Stash - 134 - A new image and old (very) papers!
The Kraft Journal - Green - Thanks also for my super prize from last months challenge - it arrived yesterday and I love my new krafty goodies
Glitter n Sparkle - Anything goes
Great Impressions - Spring
Digi Choosday Challenge - All about Girls
Magnolia Down under - Birthday
Make My Monday - Spring

Sponsoring us this time are the fabulous Magnolia-licious this is a new site to me, but they have some fab offers on, great tutorials and obviously everything Tilda - well worth a visit.

Tilda Anniversary

Gosh, it's ages since I've done a Tilda card, but a friend asked me for an anniversary card in blues with a little boy and girl on it and this was the result of my production!

The papers are all Craft Companion, accompanied by kraft and the colouring done by Promarkers.

Challenges;
Sketch n Stash - A lovely one to work with this time.
My Mum's Craft Shop - Weddings or Anniversaries
Di's Digi's - Weddings, Anniversaries or Engagements

Bride & Groom

Using my Magnolia Tilda & Edwin stamp & Wild Rose Studio papers I made this anniversary card.

I'm entering it into the Craft's & Me challenge of Add A Heart. Jx

Wedded Bliss

Tonight's card is made for a friend, who's niece is getting married in November.

The card had to include snowflakes & a black & white tartan ribbon to meet my friends spec! So it meets that one, and it also meets the Papertake Challenge spec of Dies to Die For. I had to enter this challenge using my snowflake dies, cause a few months ago, I was lucky enough to win the Papertake challenge when Dies to Die For sponsored it, and these were the dies I picked as my prize. Thanks Tracy. As well as snowflakes, the hearts & flowers are also die cuts & I used my nesties for the circles.

Later I made a box for the card too - here it is; Jx

Tilda Time

It's a while since this Tilda has had an outing so I thought I'd use her for this weeks Oldie but Goodie Challenge which is Pink & Blue & Brown. Jx

The Return of Snoowie

...but hopefully not the return of snow!

Made this one with an image I'd already coloured from last year. Ideal for this weeks ABC Christmas challenge which was to use their sketch for C - Clean & Simple. Jx

Happy Anniversary

This Tilda Anniversary card was made using the Papertake Challenge layout and includes homemade flowers so I'm also entering it into the Top Tip Tuesday Challenge which was flowers this week. Thanks Leanne for posting that great tutorial - I'll give it a go, but I didn't have time this week - I was still working on the Wordart Book from the last tutorial!

Finally, I'll also enter this card into the Crafty Catz Challenge which is also flowers this week. Jx

Spring Wedding

I never find easel cards that easy to photograph, but hopefully you get the general idea. I've made this card to order & for a challenge set by Teresa on Do Crafts, however I'm also entering it into the following challenges;

Gem Of A Challenge - Their lovely layout.
My Partner In Crafting Crime - Something New - My stamp!
Allsorts Challenge - Fancy Folds - Easel Card
