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)

Witchy Greetings

Add Image The papers are the new Magnolia papers and have been sent to all the DT’s – there should be plenty of inspiration for those cute stamps and papers be on the blogs. I have created those big scallops with my Stampin up 1 3/8 circle punch but before i have punched it out i ran the black paper once though the Swiss dot embossing folder. I have gotten many wonderful flowers in my DTkit but as usually :-) i kind of like it simple so i just spritzed the entire card with Shimmerz “Babies Breath” and the black flower got a separate treatment on a piece of scrap paper and i tucked it under the big bow.
