New Love

Hello my friends! Thank you vor visiting me today. Yes, I remembered to take a picture of the Copics i used. Sorry, I have to point it out hahaha. I recieved yesterday an email from my friend Sonja reminding me not to forget. :-) There are going to be some cards soon that i have made in September and December and i forgot numbers for those cards/projects.


Hoooray... just a few more days to wait until the new Whiff Of Joy's are online ready to be ordered. Those cute images are just perfect for Teenage cards. I thought this image fits nicely to the Challenge over on Cute Card Thursday where we show you our ideas to the theme "New Beginnings"- well.. Charlotte is writing a love letter to her new one and only flame :-). On my card i played a little bit with 3 different colors and textures of ribbons. First i was not sure if it "works" but now i kind of like it.

Stamps: Charlotte can be ordered over on Whiff of Joy January 9!

Papers: My Mind Eye Penny Lane
Ribbons: mix of Michaels and others i got from friends
Punch: Martha Stewart can be found at Cute Cards and Stamps as well as the embellishments and Copic Markers

Fairy Tales

Hi all! I've finished my first card for the Magnolia-licious monthly challenge ! The challenge for you is hosted by the wonderful Sharon Claudle, who was kind enough to find a tutorial that i made about 1 1/2 years back for my blog. Thanks, Sharon, that was so kind of you!

When you visit Magnolia-licious, be sure and join the Magnolia-licious Yahoo group to get special discounts and goodies. Diana is offering a whopping 10% off the Magnolia stamps for the month of January with a special code you get by joining the Yahoo group!! How cool is that??!!

Since i had made in the past a "Frame Card" where the scene is in the back panel stamped and Tilda/Edwin is adhered to the frame in the front i wanted to make it a bit different this time. I have stamped all my images onto one paper (the trees are masked) and just added the picture in my frame. It does look nice and it gives you more options with adding several more elements.

Check out my first card sample. I used a High Hopes flower wheel barrow and have added Tilda carrying a flower basket to the lower right corner. I don't know if i was able to show on the picture the depth of the card. Oh and since this card can not be mailed in a regular paper envelope i did not care that my heart embellishment went way out side the usual 6x6 size, the outline part of the plastic heart is cute, it decorates my project and still allows to see a lot of colored image. Unfortunately those Heidi Swapp ghost shapes are getting pretty rare.

Stamps: "Cupid Tilda" with arrow and the trees can be found in the Valentines Section over on Magnolia-lious
Sentiment: Amuse Artstamps
Papers: Bo Bunny, Stampin up (textured Pretty in Pink)
Embellishments: Offray pink Satin ribbon, MS pearl stickers, Nestabilites, Kaiser Craft pearls,

Good morning everyone or good afternoon. Thank you for all your kind comments on yesterdays posting about my blog candy. Today i would love to show you the card that i have made with the cute Motivet stamp "Be My Prince". If you like the image, please leave me a message on yesterdays posting, i will draw next week Sunday a winner for the card AND the brand sparkling new stamp.

If you want to maximize your chances of winning even more Motivet stamps.. simply leave a message this week over at the Motivet blog and you could win at the end of the week 5 brand new stamps of your own choice.

I think the stamp is quite adorable it reminds me a bit of a cartoon but not that it is too much. I can see the image on vintage papers or even with big Alphabet letters. My card uses last years My Minds Eye papers - i picked those because they had some soft pinks (for the girl) and of curse the green circles for the boy.

Thank you all for looking. Take care. Love and hugs
Ps: Sorry, no Copic marker numbers i have made this card mid December, i just wanted to show first my Christmas cards before i post this one.
