Another Magnolia

This is the Christmas card I made for cardzgal using another Magnolia stamp- skating Tilda. Just thought I would share these with you, I think this is my favourite line of stamps so far...just way too cute!


It's okay to post now, its the day after

Thought I would share the birthday card I made for cardzgal, its the day after so its okay. I used a Magnolia stamp - Tilda with Cowberry Muffin. I coloured her with prisma pencil crayons, used some liquid shimmer and glitter, added some flowers and bling and popped the image after matting. I think she is so cute and could be used for a cute christmas card too...making the muffin into a little plum pudding and using traditional christmas colours. Here is the web site for the Magnolia stamps if you want to take a look at them - www.magnoliastamps.us/ or this site www.dreamcottage.nu/english1/index1.html both sites are great to look at.
Have a great day - stay warm!

I can see clearly now.......

Happy New Year to everyone! Well we had our first for 2009 card exchange on Sunday and the cards were wonderful. We had to use acetate in some way for the cards and everyone did something different. We discussed our techniques, difficulties if any, and something we may have learned from making the cards with the acetate. I have to say there are definite ideas from the cards that I will use in my card-making. On a quick note a big congratulations out to cardzgal for being Mother of the Groom on the 10th of January....the wedding was beautiful, can't wait to see some pictures..........................or do I show one of the groom and his mom here......Hmmmmm.....yep I think so. Here is the picture of this months card exchange and one from the wedding.
