I would like to give you some infos what i used on my card. The pictures does not really show how pretty this vine paper from K&Company sparkles. There are also tiny corner embellishments made with crystal stickers on the paper with the font. On the envelope is the vine (both are vines are embellished with green Stickles) and i airbrushed the edges with E31 so it would not be so super white and have more an aged look. The sentiment can still be picked - I think this card works for many occasions. The back of the card is also decorated with some of the Designer Paper.

Stamps: Magnolia new "Jingle Jangle" Collection and to decorate the inside and envelope i used the vine stamp which you can find in the Shabby Chic Collection on the vine is green Stickles
DP/CS: K&Company, Stampin up
Embellishments: Stampin up, Martha Stewart (fond punch), Laces, Making Memories

Thank you Bea, Carole, Jaquelin and Kristine for helping me to make sample cards using this sketch so short notice!! You guys rock!!! xxx

Today's card shows one of the super adorable Tilda images you can purchase in the new Valentines Collection. Oh she cute and Tilda "works" all year round. :-)
This week i wanted to show you several different styles of cards/projects. Monday was the 6x6 style you see often on my blog, than the pillow box with tag yesterday today a long card and tomooooorowww... well come and see.. it is a style card that kind of has been forgotten.

Be Mine

Hello and happy start into the new week! The card for today uses the very new Magnolia stamps :-) iam sure you know those already, cause you also read the Magnolia Inspiration site or visit the other DTM blogs. I was so fast coloring cute Tilda in and the newspaper stamp that i totally forgot to stamp first the hearts with the stamp that goes with the newspaper. I was kind of scared to ruin the colored and airbrushed image so i was happy that Carole let me use the "Confetti Hearts" punch from Martha Stewart. (Thank you for helping me out) You know how this ... mistakes ALWAYS happen at the very end :-) and you have to start over again.I did get some paper and embellishments from Magnolia to work with, but my kids grabbed the paper off the table and they are now kind of crumbely :-) i was able to save the plain Bazzill CS and use it for the mats on this card. The DP used is from BoBunny and Stampin up. The pompon ribbon is sewed directly to the card. Stamps can be purchased in Sweden . Sentiment is from Stampin up's "Fancy Flexible Phrases" and iam so excited.. as far as i can tell all of the sentiments fit in the sign Tilda is holding. I stamped "Be Mine" with Going Grey - i think i should have used black, to make it stand out more.

Lil' Elfs

Hi and happy Friday :-) I told you :-) looove the Elfs :-) Heidi came up with this great sketch for the Friday Sketcher blog and i was like whoohoo THAT works with my new stamps. Iam sure you recognize not only the Elf from the new Magnolia line but also take a look at that fabulous bold tree with the swirls!!! I checked the Magnolia Inspiration site to see how Pauline imagined her design and from there my card developed. The stamping explanes itself, to the Elf and on the chocolate chip, distressed mats i added some sparkle with one of my fabulous glitter pens. I liked that look better than the more visible Stickles. Most of the papers and other things on this card are from my stash.. but the flowers and the elegant brads are by Magnolia sent.

Stamps: Elf and tree from Magnolia's new Valentines/Jingle Jangle collection

other: Stampin up "French Script" Background stamp and Amuse sentiment

DP: DCWV Farytale DP and chocolate chip CS
