Bingo or Anything Goes at Magnolia-licious

Hello my friends, I hope your day is happy and relaxing for you.

We have a new challenge BINGO at Magnolia-licious!

When I do Bingo I seem to hit all the squares as I can't just pick 3, there is always something else I find that would be fun on my card. lol

This is Drip Drop Tilda that I won from a Shutter from Magnolia VIA the very talented Camilla, if you have not been to her blog, you just have to see her cards, they are stunning!!!  Here is her link you won't be disappointed.!

I also won the Doohickey tag die cut so I had to use them together on the card.  It is fun to win so I sure hope you enter our challenge and follow the rules so you can win Diana's Magnolia-licious Store certificate, the store is full of goodies!

Here is the Bingo card for you to follow our challenge at Magnolia-licious Challenge, or if you like we also have the option of anything goes. More fun for you to win.

Thank you for hanging out with me a while, have a fabulous day!

Magnolia-licious Love and/or Hearts

Today I am sharing a card with you for the newMagnolia-licious Challenge Love and/or Hearts.  We have a new collection in the store called A Touch of Love, I used Miracle Tilda.  I love this image as I can see her in my Bible journaling spreading love when the text talks about it.

I indulged in the Pion Papers, various flowers and doohickey dies for this card. The banners are cut from the Pion paper strips as well as the butterflies.  That paper has everything you need to make a card elegant and romantic.  I love papers in case you didn't know.

A closer look at the doohickey dies from Volumn 5 and the cut Pion decorative strip I used for banners throughout the card.

A very fluffy card.

Magnolia-licious is offering a $20.00 gift certificate in a random drawing for the challenge so I hope you join us and enter your Magnolia creation.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today and please visit my teammates too. 

Have a great day!

"W"ednesday Mini Magnolia Pendant

Today I'm sharing with you a pendant I made for the "W"ednesday post for Magnolia-licious. This year we will be using Magnolia Mini World and Stamping Bella stamps for the "W"ednesday challenge, both are in the Magnolia-licious Store.

I colored my mini Magnolia in Copics and then put here inside the metal heart pendant with chunky glitter. I used Glossy Accents to cover her and let it dry.  Then I attached a few charms to the chain and it was done, easy and cheap gift to make.  My son's friend loved it (only 7 years old) so I gave it to her. lol  

Please check out my other teammates creations from the Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog and join us by creating a Mini Magnolia or Stamping Bella image to win this gift from Diana.

Have a great day!

Magnolia Licious Theme "WINTER" or "Anything Goes"

Hello my friends,
I am back from Anaheim, CA where I had the most crafting fun. My mind is full of new ideas.  Prima Art Venture had amazing instructors, they are so nice, talented, and I understood everything they said.  We went to CHA and walked around gazing at the newest products and drooled over their very talented designers creations.  I also had the pleasure to meet Karen Bueapre from Southern Ridge Trading Company, Tabitha Dromiak from 7 Kids College Fund as well as Rosemary Bridges.  Meeting them in person and hear their voices really made them real instead of virtual like the internet is.  I wish we had more time to hang out but another day.

We have a new challenge today at the Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog and our first theme of the new year is
WINTER or ANYTHING GOES

I made a shaker card with glitter and sequins in it. I love my image Tilda with Snowy and so does everyone else as it is currently sold out.  Just send Diana a email and she will order it for you. I made 2 circles and the inside ring with Spellbinder dies and then I adorned the card with Doohickey dies.

The very background shape is a Go-Create die and I found this webbing and I liked the dimension on the bottom because the top is quite heavy with embellies.

I am hoping that Winter and Snow will be mild for the rest of this season.  At least we get about 98% sunshine on a daily basis, that makes me happy.

Please join us at Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog for the new Challenge "Anything Goes" or "Winter"

Hope you visit the other design team members as they have made some gorgeous creations to share with you.

Have a Sunny Wintery Day.

Fall Colors at Magnolia licious

Halloween is over and now the fall will fly by as we await the next two upcoming holidays.  Who is hiding their kids candy?  lol  My poor guy is very sensitive to sugar so he can only have a tiny bit so we help him along by eating it too. lol  The privileges of being a parent.

Fall is in the Air
AT MAGNOLIA-LICIOUS CHALLENGE BLOG AND OUR THEME IS
FALL COLOR

I used Bohemian Peony Tilda and the Bohemian doily lace and Bravo sentiment from the BOHO Collection available here at Magnolia-licious.  If you do not see the image at Magnolia-licious then just ask Diana and she will order one for you.

All the florals are a die from a Doohickey club kit. 

The doily image is stamped on the background using the versa mark ink pad and then Frantaged with Shabby Ivory to make the border around Tilda.  I really love the lace and doily stamps from this collection and all the Tilda's too.

By leaving a comment on the Magnolia-licious DT blogs you will have a chance to win a special surprise from Diana!  

I know the holidays are approaching fast but I hope you take time to enter our FALL COLOR Challenge for a chance to win a awesome prize from Magnolia-licious AND don't forget to comment on the DT's blogs because I have a friend that has won twice now, she was very happy with her "Surprise Package".

Have a great day!

Spooktacular Fun at Magnolia Licious

We have a Spooktacular Challenge today at Magnolia-licious

"SPOOKTACULAR FUN"

My son loves Halloween and I have a couple of friends that love it too, they make gorgeous creations for a spooky Halloween feel.  My son helped me along with this one, make it scary mom! Well I have such a hard time with scary, I love cute so here is what I came up with. 

A tea light house transformed into a scary Halloween night.  I have two friends that wanted to see me get going on mixed media so they sent me boxes of goodies and this tea light house is one of them. Thank you Cathylynn and Christina for your generosity, you are both in my heart!

I painted the house black and used G45 paper to adorn the house. The roof line is glitter I glued on and I picked up some stickers from Micheals.  On the roof I glued cheesecloth so I have to use a battery operated light for it. 

I used @ Tilda from the World Wide Web Collection and colored her in Copic markers, I just cut off the @ from the bottom, looks like she is running for sure.

My fence is a Doohickey Die and the sweet cute Magnolia Dog is having a howling good time.

I hope you are brave enough to join the MAGNOLIA-LICIOUS CHALLENGE

SPOOKTACULAR FUN

We would love to hear from you so leave a comment

on the challenge blog or the DT blogs this

week for a chance to win a

surprise from Magnolia-licious.

My friend just won this a few weeks ago!  Good luck to you!

See you at the challenge and good luck to you all!

Boho in Kraft

I adore the new collection from Magnolia Boho Collection as they are so carefree and dressed perfectly for the boho look.  I love to dress that way too but at my age I look a bit silly. lol  This set is very fun as they are unlimited in ideas.

Our new challenge at Magnolia-licious is "USE KRAFT PAPER"  on your creation. I love Kraft paper for its neutral and goes great with Boho!

This photo I took from my phone, sometimes I think it doesn't distort the colors like the camera and it is a richer picture.  Just had to throw it on for a contrast.

Hippe Tilda is so darling with her macrame bag, remember those! Remember the macrame hanging plant holders we all made, haha

I also bordered her with the Bohemian Lace and Love stamp and then embossed it with Frontage, Marine and distressed the outside also.

I purchased a few crocheted flowers from Etsy and this one worked perfectly with the theme.  I also stamped and embossed the envelopes with the Lace stamp

Boho embellishing above and below is the card using my camera.  Sometimes I think the little details disappear when I use the camera?

I sure hope you join us at Magnolia-licious challenge Use Kraft so you can get a chance to win the prize from Diana.

Don't for get to check out the other designers, they have gorgeous creations to show you and leave a comment for another chance to win!

Have a great day!

Magnolia-licious Add Roses

Hello and welcome!

Magnolia licious Challenge is ADD Roses which is always a beautiful accessory to any card.  My card has minimal roses but they are also in the paper and embellishment too so you can add them in different ways.  

I am using Stop In The name of Love from the Lovely Duo Collection, you get a Tilda image and a sentiment together. 

Here are my lovely roses and a close up of Tilda colored in Distressed Inks.

I hope you create something for our challenge using roses and you could be the lucky winner of a special prize from Diana.

 Here is a peak at 1 room in my home that is finished and it used to be my craft room.  We tore open a bedroom for a formal dining area and now we get a huge amount of light from the big window as well as a open concept main floor. 

I love the simplicity of this room and the peaceful colors. 

My wall art is from a local store called Weathered Vane, love this store too much$$

The table is Amish and the lighting is from Pottery Barn.

I opted for a bit formal drape because I could not have the barn doors I wanted here, not enough room.  The are faux silk and keep the morning heat out.

This was closed off and a bedroom before where I had just finished my craft room and now it is a gathering place for our family to have memorable conversations.

Here is the room before the fire and above is the room after the fire.

Thank you for stopping by today and Please join us at Magnolia vicious Challenge  ADD ROSES.

Blessings to you

Magnolia-licious Challenge Anchors Aweigh

Hello everyone and I am so happy you came to my blog today.

I will not be posting for a while as the final stages of our home require me to be equally responsible for the work.  Exciting but exhausting.  I am so slow and with a blank canvas sometimes my paint choices have been wrong so I painted a few rooms twice because I didn't like the paint colors. lol  The flooring is going down and most of it is tile. Then the doors and trim need to be painted and the electrician needs to finish his job, final plumbing and who knows what we will come across yet.  We figured the house would be done late August.

I will show you photographs of it before we move in.  Then the decorating begins, of course I have purchased some of that already, just can't wait! 

My card is for the Magnolia-licious Challenge Anchors Aweigh, team A already has awesome inspiration for you.  Remember if you comment on everyones blog you are eligible for a special prize from Diana. 

Yes the photos are not great but when we move I will be able to have what I need to make them crisp again.  I miss my photo booth and Nikon camera.

Tilda is colored in Distressed Inks and then I Frantaged all around the background. Made a sandy beach. lol

The flowers are WOC and Kort and Godt. The pin I purchased from Etsy and fellow crafter Mandy Stacey.  I love decorative pins but I cannot make them so I am happy to purchase these from Mandy.

Please join us for the current challenge Anchors Aweigh, see you there!

One day I found this beautiful moth behind our TV, it did not make it but will be part of my craft room.
