Thank you

Hi and a wonderful Monday. Thank you so much for all your lovely comments on my card this past Friday! I think iam going to have a tough week ahead of me with some family coming to visit us later this week from Toronto and getting my family prepared for the vacation (we drive with by car down to Miami). I have decided that i am going to have this month here and there some random blog candies to give away. I would love to avoid the blog candy blogs.. I want the prizes going to some of you who come and visit me regularly and to be honest.. i will not have the time to just check if you have advertised my candy on your blog. So iam not going to ask much..the candies i will have up are always for one day only. :-) Some gift sets are bigger, some are smaller.. but i hope it is going to be much fun for everyone. Please know that i appreciate each and everyone of you. Thank you for coming to see my cards and if you have time to leave me a message.lots of love Claudia

Hello, since iam going to be this month for 3 weeks on vacation i wanted to make something cute and fast. That was the plan, but after i started this tiny card it turned out that i really had to put a lot of playtime into it, just like for a regular 6x6 card. I have made it for Cute Cards Challenge for this week Faux stitching or sewing.. since i sew pretty much on EVERY card, i did want to take on the faux stiching challenge. Every label layer is pierced and i used a black and white pen for the stitching. The images used, are all the very cute Magnolia Mini stamps. Unfortunately those are at this point not available online but the new Fall Kit can now be pre-ordered :-)

Stamps: Magnolia Mini Collection stamps

Papers: craps from Basic Grey Bittersweet

Simple Apple Cake Recipe

Gosh i had a crazy day yesterday. I want to tell you all about it after the details to the card. Cause that's why you are coming to visit right?The card was made for 2 challenge sites one the "old Magnolia Challenge" where my friend Carole picked "Tilda with apple cake" for this week and also for the Copic Challenge blog where we colored "brunette" hair in. Thought of ideas who to use this cute Tilda a little different. iam not a very big "pastry" maker - rather love to eat them.. so instead of a cake i made a recipe card for the person who can bake for me the cake hahaha

Above is the close up shot to see the hair colors. I love recently all the colors from E15 all the way to E19 mixed with E50! The other 2 shots show that the inside, with the recipe can also be used as a cookbook bookmark

Stamps: Tilda with Apple pie
Papers: K&Company "Wild Raspberry" Stampin up (pretty in pink, Baja Breeze)
