Merry Christmas!!..and just a little Buddy Fun!

Twas the night before Christmas and Buddy had heard that a big jolly fellow...would be invading his turf! He'd be listening and waitin'..crouched low in his bed And if this fella was comin'..He'd wake up the dead!! Christmas eve finally came...Buddy lifted his head.. He heard bumps and grunts..and leaped out of bed. That big Guy was here.. of that was a fact! He looked jolly and friendly and carried a sack! Buddy was speechless!....he did not attack!!.. With his tail a wagglin'..he rolled on his back!! "I'm not much of a watch dog"... Little Buddy admits... but .."Woof!!".. "Santa sure gives good belly rubs..and bully bone sticks!!"

DT Magnolia - Spooky Happy Halloween!! - Monthly DT Challenge

This DT card is also created for the DT Magnolia Challenge the very talented Camilla has set for this month. Camilla challenges the Magnolia DT members to use at least 3 stamps on a card or creation. Thanks for the fun challenge Camilla!!

I used 6 "Magnolia" stamps on this card!! This card was a challenge for me as well because of the size it is. Included in my Magnolia Dt kit was a black card base 8.5" wide x 5.5"height... (21.5 cm wide x 14 cm height). A size a bit out of my comfort zone...so it took a little longer than usual..lol.

The images are colored with copics under the prismacolor pencils and a touch h20's to deepen the shade and add a little sparkle. *(Please remember.....do not use copics over prismacolor pencils or the wax from the pencils will ruin your copic tips!)*

The colors in the background were just brushed across with a soft brush. Tilda witch, Hellbroth and the bat on the moon are all attached with foam pop ups. The moon, sentiment and pumpkin are glued to the image panel and attached to the back panel with foam popups. The netting is just a tape used for dry walling. The orange fabric on top is cut from a Dollarama fabric Halloween bag. The spider and webs are from dollarama as well. I've added glitter, stickles and shimmerz here and there. The patterned papers are all from Magnolia's So Spooky Collection and can be found at retailers like "the Little Stamp Shoppe"

Ink - memento black, SU - marigold morning, bordering blue, perfect plum, close to cocoa. Papers - GP white, Magnolia, SU old olive. Accessories - raffia, dry wall netting tape, rick rack (magnolia), spider, fabric Halloween bag, glitter, stickles, shimmerz, stitching, MS border punch, acrylic white paint.

"You're So Sweet" - Lazy Summer Days Collection 2009

I am actually in time for a couple of challenges with this card....The Fabulous "sketch" at Friday Sketchers and the fun theme being "at the sea" at Stamp with Fun.

The stamps I have used for this card are "LZ09 Bathing Ring" - "LZ09 Beach Tilda" - "LZ09 Post Strawberry" all from Magnolia's Lazy Summers Day Collection 2009

Again I've I colored the image with copics for base, prismacolor pencils and h20's to deepen the shade and add a little sparkle. *(Please remember.....do not use copics over prismacolor pencils or the wax from the pencils will ruin your copic tips!)*

Tilda has been masked off so she could sit on the bathing ring. To create the sentiment...I also masked off the adjoining works on the You're So Sweet stamp so I could stamp them out separately...then just tore around them and inked the edges with SU Creamy Caramel ink. I used nesties for the circle and scalloped layer and attached the image circle with foam pop ups onto the scalloped layer. There is shimmerz (Angel wings) brushed on the flowers along the bottom of the image.

Ink - memento black, bashful blue, creamy caramel. Paper - GP white, basic grey "Euphoria", Michael's, bazill cs. Accessories - flowers, lace, glitter brads, shimmerz, ribbon, nesties, stitching, acrylic paint for detail dots.

Welcome to Sweet Magnolia's!!

Here ....... I will be displaying cards and projects made from the New Beautiful Magnolia stamps...and some of the Fabulous Past Collections. Some of the cards will be a flash from the past...but I believe...these lovely favorite stamps are definitely worth a 2nd look!! I first became introduced to Magnolia stamps by the very Talented and Lovely DT Inge. Click on her name to see her Gorgeous Creations.....(they still always blow me away!!). Then along came Fabulous DT Claudia ...well needless to say I was then hooked on these Cute and Fun little figures. Click on Claudia's name to see her Beautiful Creations!! The following is some of the new and older Creations I have made......Enjoy!!..... The pretty Magnolia on this card is "Tilda picking Lilacs". She is part of the Magnolia "Chasing Butterflies Collection 2009". Tilda as a Butterfly....isn't she Sweet?!!...You can find her in the Magnolia "Chasing Butterflies Collection 2009". The Fabulous sentiment "CC09 You Make Me Smile" is from the same collection.

I've used one of the new Magnolia Love Collection stamps on this card......."LC09 Be Mine" ...

As soon as I saw this stamp I thought of this little Tilda from the Magnolia New Year 2008 Collection ..."NY08 Dreamy Tilda". She almost seems to fit perfectly on top...lol. I've also used Jacquelines sketch here from a past Friday Sketchers. Thanks for the great sketch Jacqueline!!

I love tent cards....I think they are just the Cutest little cards and so quick to make. This card has Magnolia's cute little snowman called "CH07 Edwin's Snowman" from {Magnolia} WINTER & CHRISTMAS SUPPLEMENT 2007. The sentiment is from Hotp

A very quick Christmas card.... I used Magnolia's "HV08 Christmas Fir" from Christmas Collection 2008 and High Hopes "Meowy Christmas". The sentiment is a SU stamp.

I've used four stamps from Magnolia on this card......Sweet Tilda is "HV08 Tilda with Candy Cane" from the Christmas Collection - the tag is "NY08 Tag" from the New Years Collection - the snowflake is "HV08 Gigant Snowflake" and the holly is "DEC07 Järnek / Holly" from the Winter & Christmas Supplement 2007. The joy and cheer sentiment is from HOTP Christmas Art

On this card I have used 2 Magnolia stamps...."HV08 Tilda decorate christmas Tree" and "HV08 Christmas Tree". Both of these stamps are from the "Holiday Collection 2oo8" I think this little Tilda is so cute with her little basket of ornaments...and the tree is so easy and fast to color.

The Tilda I've used on this heart card is "HV08 Tilda with Heart Ornament" and "HV08 Fir Branch" both from the recent "Holiday Collection 2oo8".

Here is a cute little round box Magnolia sent me to decorate. I have never taken photos of something like this so I took a few extra ....the top one being the top of the box.

In this photo I am trying to give you the over all look of the box.....not quite sure I've achieved that here....

This photo is of the sides. The stamp Cute Tilda I used is here is called, "HV08 Tilda with Heart Ornament" and she is from the recent "Holiday Collection 2oo8" The bench is SEA08 Old Bench and is from the "2008 Summer and Sea Collection"

Thank you so much for looking Everyone!!
