Easter's On it's Way


Easter is less than two weeks away, and this year I have a few different cards designed to celebrate the season, so here's the first - an adorable rocker card featuring a Magnolia image. 


The other bunny and eggs are from Darcie's, and all of the images have been colored with Copics, then fussy cut and mounted on the rocker card.  The sentiment is from Eat Cake Graphics, the stems of buds are from the local big box store, and the layered flower is cut with a Le Crea Multidie from Leane Creatief.

They call it Puppy Love

Did anyone else get the Christmas issue of Magnolia Ink?   If you were one of the lucky people to purchase this fabulous magazine, you were also lucky enough to receive this adorable Magnolia image free with the magazine.  Now I know that it is suppose to be a Christmas image, but nothing on it yells Christmas, so I have colored her up, and transformed her into a Valentine image.  A girl and her new puppy - its definetly puppy love!!!
 

 
The image is colored with Copics and mounted on dp from Bo Bunny's Love Letters collection.  The heart border is a Memory Box die, the sentiment is from My Favorite Things Die-namics First Class Friend set, and the resin heart is from Webster's Pages.

Snow Update and a Card


So in my last post I was complaining commenting on the accuracy of the weather man and his definition of flurries, as compared to mine.  Just an update - those Flurries dumped a record amount of snow on Calgary - just a measly 21 centimeters is the official report.  I took my yardstick outside to my deck yesterday and stuck it in the snow, and lucky, lucky me - we actually received 32 cm here in my neighborhood.  ( The on going joke in my family, and now even the ladies that attend classes here in my home, is that my subdivision of Citadel has it's own weather pattern.  Many a times I've had people comment on how as soon as they drive into Citadel, the weather changes dramatically - I still say it's because my community is at a higher elevation, but who really knows - LOL!!!!!).
 
So, since there is so much of the white stuff around now, I'm sticking to the winter theme with my card today.  This is Tilda in the Mountains, a delightful Magnolia image that I have colored with Copics.
 
 

After fussy cutting the image, and popping it up on dp from the Winterings collection by Little Yellow Bicycle, I have added swirls from a Memory Box die, a large snowflake doily from Marianna's Designs, and punched and glittered snowflakes.  The sentiment is from Flourishes Snow Days set, and is perfect for someone's age related birthday.

Skating into Your Heart

It's challenge time at One Crazy Stamper, and the theme for this month is RED/WHITE + ONE OTHER COLOR OF YOUR CHOICE.  I choose the gorgeous Magnolia Ice Tilda to color for this card, and made it into a slider card so that she could glide across the pink ice!

The image was stamped on Copic Xpress It paper with Memento Tuxedo Black ink, colored with Copic Sketch Markers and then fussy cut.  The pink glittered background papers edge was punched with a Martha Stewart Around the Page punch, snowflakes are dies from Cheery Lynn, sentiment is a LOTV, and the ribbon and snowflake button are from my stash.  The pearls that highlight the sentiment and the border of the card were made with the Ice White Viva Decor pearl pen

Is this the Last?

I only have two more Christmas cards to show you, so here's my second to last with the very last card posted tomorrow.  Once again I found this image already colored, flocked and glittered, so all I had to do was make it into a card.  The image is Snowy Hug Tilda with snowman from Magnolia and was colored with Copics, then cut out with a Spellbinders die.  Dp is from my stash, the star punch is a All Over the page from Martha Stewart, and the sentiment was stamped and embossed with gold.


I am entering this card into the following:

Celebrate Autumn!


Autumn has arrived, the trees are all turning beautiful colors and the days are cooler here in Alberta.  In honor of this colorful season, I pulled out an older Magnolia stamp and colored it with Copics.  After fussy cutting the image I mounted her onto the card front dp which is from Bo Bunny's Forever Fall collection.  The sunflower die is a Spellbinder and the sentiment is from My Pink Stamper Friend-tastic set.  The center of the die flower, dp's flower and three dots were all made with brown micro beads.
