I just received these sweet new Magnolia designs from Magnolia-licious and I couldn’t help but sit right down with them and figure out which one to stamp first, too cute!!   My little Tilda hanging from the tree is called #317 Dangling Tilda and is just in from the Right Through the Heart and Raising the Ceiling Collection.  If you don’t see her in the store, simply leave a message for Diana and she will let you know her next availability.

I have been on quite the blue kick and have used cream with almost everything I’ve done this week.  I picked these papers from my Chloe’s Closet stack and loved they way they looked together. I cut Spellbinders™ Long Classic Scalloped Rectangles SM and topped it with a Spellbinders™ Long Classic Rectangles SM.    I then created the rolled flower from some organdy trim that I have in my craft room.  After adding leaves and a flourish I finished off with lace and ribbon. 

Card Recipe:
Stamps:  Magnolia-licious – #317 Dangling Tilda
Paper:  Making Memories – Chloe’s Closet, The Paper Company, Bazzill
Ink:  Memento Tuxedo Black, Antique Linen Distress Ink
Accessories:  Spellbinders™ Long Classic Scalloped Rectangles SM, Spellbinders™ Long Classic Rectangles SM, Bosskut – Flourish #0364, Ribbon, Leaves, Stamen, Organdy Trim, Lace, Copic Markers

 Thanks for stopping by.  Tomorrow is a Blog Hop with prizes from Our Daily Bread Designs, hope you’ll pop in and see me!!

Hi there friends, I have updates to share with you today about Blog Candy so stick with me and I’ll cover the updates at the end of this post.  In the meantime,  I’m back to share a card with you using two of the newer sets with JustRite Stampers called Romantic Sentiments Centers Rounds and Breath of Spring Borders and Centers.   I cut a frame using Spellbinders Cherry Pickin’ and cut a second oval frame using Spellbinders Classic Ovals LG #3 and #5 and popped it up over the cherry frame.  For the sentiment I cut an oval and  nestled it underneath the two frames.  In addition I used  Spellbinders Easter Borderabilities Petite create the border underneath my ribbon – I simply covered up all of the border except the very edges.

All areas are distressed with Antique Linen Distress Ink.  The final touches are ribbon and pearls.

Card Recipe:
Stamps:  JustRite Romantic Sentiment Rounds and JustRite Breath of Spring Borders and Centers
Paper:  Webster Pages, Bazzill
Ink:  CTMH Ocean
Accessories:  Spellbinders Classic Ovals LG, Spellbinders Cherry Pickin’, Spellbinders Easter Borderabilities Petite, Ribbon, Pearls button. 

Several have emailed me to ask about the lattice basket I created recently.  I am working on the diagram and hope to share it next week.  I have a couple of deadlines and commitment to get through first but it is coming, no worries!.

Now, as for the current blog candy, through Random.org I picked the following number:

802

This corresponds with Darlene J

Darlene, please reach out to me through my contact page to claim your winnings.  I sure hope the second time is the charm.  After 48 hours (Monday morning) I’ll pick a new name if I have not heard from you.

For the rest of you, no worries, I still have some items to be given away so another blog candy is going up as soon as I can get pictures of the goodies.  Please come back and jump in on the fun :-)  By the way, thank you so very much for helping me celebrate my blogaversary month!

I hope you’ve enjoyed all the bird goodness that Our Daily Bread Designs has offered this month.  The birds are gorgeous and the sentiments that accompany them are amazing.  I have two cards to share using this months sets.   This card from the He Watches Me Set has one of my very favorite quotes :-)

I framed the birds using Spellbinders™ Standard Circles SM and Spellbinders™ Standard Circles LG then embellished with cut bits of Martha Stewart  Daisy Fan Border Punch. 

Card Recipe:
Stamps:  Our Daily Bread Designs – He Watches Me
Paper:  Bazzill, K & Co. – TC Blossomwood
Ink:  Memento – Rich Cocoa, Blue dye based ink
Accessories:  Spellbinders™ Standard Circles SM, Spellbinders™ Standard Circles LG, Martha Stewart Daisy Fan Border Punch.  Pearls, Ribbon


The next card is made using Our Daily Bread Designs You Will Find Refuge Set, with this charming little Chickadee.  I colored the Chickadee with Copic Markers and sponged in the background  while still in the Spellbinders™ Classic Ovals SM die.  I slipped in a layer cut in the round using Martha Stewart Iron Gate Corner Punch.  Quite some time ago I created a tutorial that shows you how to create a circle or circular frame using a corner punch – you can find it HERE; it works marvelously with the newer MS corner punches as well.  Underneath that decorative layer I stacked another Spellbinders™ Classic Ovals LG and Spellbinders™ Classic Scalloped Ovals LG.  One of my favorite shapes for sentiments (because it is the perfect size) is like a surprise bonus in the Spellbinders™ Polka Dot Frame.  This shape comes from the inside of the smallest frame.   

Card Recipe:
Stamps:  Our Daily Bread Designs – You Will Find Refuge
Paper:  Bazzill, K &Co. – TC Blossomwood
Ink:  Memento Tuxedo Black, Colorbox Chanti, Brushed Corduroy Distress Ink, CTMH Creme Brulee
Accessories:  Spellbinders™ Classic Ovals LG, Spellbinders™ Class Ovals SM, Spellbinders™ Classic Scalloped Ovals LG, Spellbinders™ Polka Dot Frame, Martha Stewart Iron Gate Corner Punch, Clear Embossing Powder, Ribbon

Thanks for stopping in to see what I was up to.  You’re always welcome, friends!

ETA:  Above I referenced a tutorial I created back in 2008 that teaches you how to create a circular frame using a corner punch.  I received a question that I wanted to address quickly.  The question asked was how to take the wings off of the Martha Stewart Punches and the answer is please don’t remove them.  The Martha Stewart punches can be used just as if they were a regular punch, with the wings in, so there is no need to remove anything.

    I just love your website, so with a little time on my hands (ONE of the perks of being retired!) I decided to revisit your blog from day 1~~You really are an amazing artist! I am so happy I found you, the daily inspiration you give from your amazing talent, and also from the quotes and character profile so appreciated by this reader. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

    Wow! These cards are amazing! I love the tutorial on how to make punched out circles! I can’t believe I missed it really. Your cards are so inspiring and your talent blows me away. I showed your blog to a fellow card maker and she was floored. We both want the spellbinders, but neither has an embossing machine. Need to change that! Lol! Thank so much for the cards you show and sharing your techinques.ReplyCancel
