Lili of the Valley Wedding Couple

                      I love this paper from Little Yellow Bicycle TWIG as it is so romantic.
                      at the bottom of the card I used Papertrey Inks new die for lace edges.
                          My flowers are from Magnolia and Prima, the lace is from Joann's


                           I used the stickles are a xmas present from my sister-in-law and I
                            outlined the Wedding Couple with silver and green.

                        Relax and Enjoy the evening.

Spring Challenge




I am in love with the new My Minds Eye Papers that our craft store just got in. I even had the matching crystals and papertrey ribbon that matched it.  I used the Stampin up embosslits Beautiful Wings for the butterflies, as in spring you can never have too many.

I had a hard time coloring Tilda for some reason but finally after hours of practice I did OK. I also masked the images together for the first time.

Copic BG10, 15 and Promarker pastel green for the  dress and the shoes are Copic W1, 3.  The butterflies and flowers are Y11, 21, G82 and YR07, 65, R08.

I am entering the card into the SPRING Challenge over at www.magnolia-licioushighlites.blogspot.com

Thank you for looking today.

Tilda Holding a Rabbit




I am using this card for the www.magnolia-liciouschallengeblog.blogspot.com Challenge Pink, Brown or Baby card.  I thought Tilda with this sweet stuffed bunny was close to "baby" as I have for magnolia.

I used Distressed Inks spun sugar, walnut and vintage photo and Pebbles DP with the coordinating felt flower.I punched out some hearts and used ribbons I already had for embellishments.  Things are stacked here to give more of a texture on the card, like the nesties with Tilda.

Thank you for stopping bye and A BIG THANK YOU to all of you who helped me with my 'blog candy' dellema.  I am very impressed at how well you girls explain things, I will work on my blog later. Thanks.

First Twisted Easel Card


 Pearls line the outer edge of a butterfly on the bottom of the card, I used my cricut to make all the images on the easel card. My flowers are from Magnolia and Prima.  I put flowers in Tilda's egg basket in order to use it for a birthday instead of a Easter Card.

                             This is my first copic image that is quite nice and blended correctly
                                                     Practice makes perfect


                     I have a butterfly inside the fold too from my cricut. The flowers hold the card in place.

  I have been pining over this image of Tilda and finally purchased her. I love how sweet she is with this lamb. I know I am using alot of pink lately, just love the color but I will be trying some new ones out soon.

Wonderful Blustery Day to you all.

Mini Cupcake for Grandmothers



I was soooo excited when I found the above sentiment at our local craft store. It is from Verses Rubber Stamps FM0280-D. Then I remembered the Love Muffin from Magnolia oh what a great combination.

I ordered my mini Love Muffin from Magnolia-icious and when I recieved it I made 2 pages of muffins to cut out as I need them. Only problem is to match the paper to the images I colored.I looked all over my room and no cupcakes on my papers!  Oh well, off to the store again to buy more paper, hehe.
                My paper is from Doodlebug Designs and I used Copics B02, B05, RV02, RV04, E31, E33, and E37. Unfortuately I couldn't figure out which green and orange I used on the others. Sorry.

Thanks for stopping by I know it has been a while. Enjoy your day.

Sympathy Card for a Man


    My husband requested I make a sympathy card for him to give to someone he knows, that man just lost his father.  My husband thought it would take me 5 minutes to make a card!! Right!  He kept bugging me and asking me "are you done yet?" just like a little kid. It took me almost an hour because of his distractions, sitting by my side and whining. I just laugh at him as he is not interested in my cards, but encourages me to make them.
   This is the first time my husband watched over me and kept me company while I made a card. Funny.
