Get Well Soon

I just got a few days ago my order of some Yummy-for-Your-Tummy stamps that were missing in my collection and i could not resist to add some of the new Magnolia papers as well. Saw too many nice cards made with it so i had to give it a try too

Since the card has not many layers i have just stamped the tea cup once onto Neenah White paper with Memento Ink, cut out with circle Nestabilities. Than stamped the cup again, colored with some grey makers, cut out and added Paper Glaze to it. Than once all dried adhered it with pop up dots over the cup stamped onto the circle. I first wanted to add to the handle of the cup the “get well” sentiment but loved the heart charm better.

Other: Nestabilities:Label , pin, Magnolia flower, lace, Pearl stickers, Fiskars Border punch

I Cased Pauline

Hello and a happy Sunday. Today i can show my last DT card that i have made with supplies sent by Magnolia. As you can see, my Inspiration came 1:1 by the sample card i have seen on the Magnolia Inspiration blog. This card is made within like 15-20 minutes. Which shows you, that if you love Magnolia’s that you do not need always spent a lot of time to come up with lots of layers and coloring. They just simply make nice and sweet cards!
To “pep” Edwin’s white clothes up i have first colored with Copic sketch C1 the shadows and than went over with my Copic Glitter pen to add sparkle.

Yummy Yummy

Today i would like to show you something that was put together really fast, and a first at Pretty Pressings :-) a recipe! Tilda was already colored ( you can see the green colors in the coloring were supposed to match the DP i had planned to use her for) and cut out. A friend did a favor for me – she took my boys since i had trouble with the car. So, to give her a little something when she brought the kids back i have made those muffins.
To decorate one of the little bags, I stamped the Magnolia “loveletter” (Valentines or Love Collection) with brown Memento onto a cut out Oval shape from Neenah White paper (left the Nestabilitie on) added Tilda with pop up dots to the oval and decorated the tag with some Prima roses around the top. Well.. maybe a bit of a waste with the pearl stickers but i just loved the look of it.

So are you ready for my first posted recipe???Adults did like this muffin - for my 3 and 6 year olds they were not sweet enough - they like lots and lots of icing :-) The muffins are made in about 20 –25 minutes

Make It Campbells Instead

In my recent Magnolia kit i have received most of the goodies you can see on the card. I have stamped cute little 60's Tilda onto my favorite Neenah Classic Ultra white paper with Memento ink. The coloring was done very fast, that’s why i have added some extra interest with Shimmerz paints in Gold glimmer and Pixie Dust. I 'cleaned" my brush off around the Kraft CS so it just randomly glimmers too.

Stamps: Magnolia "Yummy For Your Tummy" Tilda and "Made with Love", Stampin up Yummy (retired)

Stationary

Thank you for swinging by today. The little gift set i show today, was actually made for Magnolia Ink magazine. Make sure to secure your issue :-) i know the DT went over the top with their creations for the launch of the Magnolia magazine. Since i have used on my project the beautiful new Shimmerz Fall paints and Spritz, i have decided to hold this project back and show it today. Make sure to check out Shimmerz blog because you can win the entire set of the new colors!
I have purchased the little wood container at Michaels and painted it with Distress Crackle Paint. Once the paint was completely dried (speeded process up with heat gun) i have added Prima Marketing Felt border and sprayed over the entire project Shimmerz Treasured hymn.

The shimmer sits nicely in the cracks and gives the felt a wonderful look. while the spray is drying i have painted all my flowers with several paints.. mixed Antique Lace with Red Wagon to create interest in the center of flowers. Leaves were punched out with Martha Stewart (Twig punch) and just quickly dipped into Mossy Stone paint. Set aside and let dry. Than i started to color my images with Copic Sketch markers and cut the cute little girls out

After everything was completely dried i have assembled my flowers and added them to the card and the wooden purse. The purse can be filled with little gifts like some markers for a crafting friend or even just some yummy candies. I have made a little matching card, sized just right to fit nicely into the purse.

Home Sweet Home

Not sure if i went a little overboard with all my flowers :-) i simply loved the romantic look of the papers and Tilda sitting on that lace board. My first plan was to add Tilda with Lolli on to the shelf and stamp "Home Sweet Home" in it, but sadly she was facing towards the frame and it just did not look "right". However iam happy how "Jam Tilda" looks with the shelf too

Stamps can be found at Magnolia, Sweden

Stamps: "Jam Tilda" from the Yummy for your Tummy Collection shelf and cross stitch "Sweet Home" can be found in the Kitchen 2008 Collection the sentiment comes also with a tiny heart that can be stamped inside the frame

Papers: Basic Grey Porcelain, Stampin up

Embellishments: Prima Marketing roses, Robins Nest, Stampin up Ribbons and Lace was a gift
