Bildmalarna Stamp :: My yellow dress

 
Hello boys and girls! I love spring the colors! Let me tell you I have such an explosion of colors just outside of the door. The neighbors must think I am a nut, because I can stay stare at a tree for the longest time. The lilac bush has a tint of w1 and B000 : ). The cardinals are so magnificent! How about the combo colors of the woodpeckers? Fantastic!
So what else says it is spring time? A nice yellow dress! That is how I see my little Bildmalarna..nice yellow dress and a cool matching sneakers. Of course a whimsical butterfly came for the party too! I am just wondering to whom little bildmalarna will give that basket of flowers…YOU! Now come over Bildmalarna blog and join us for this challenge. You can win a great prize!

Bildmalarna :: A very happy friend

Hello all stamp lovers! Let's make this official. I am sure some of you notice my little banner on the side. Yeap, I am so happy to say that I will be having fun with sweet friends as a Bildmalarna Design team member! I am already having a good time with my dear senior dt's, they are so amazing and you bet they are preparing fantastic things for you to join the fun! You already can join us at the current Bilmalarna Challenge blog, the theme is make an easel card. Easy and FUN!

My easel card has what is becoming one of my favorites stamps from "mimosa' (a nick for bildmalarna), happy friends. I was  trying to keep it simple, and very generic. A card for all occasions. One of the reasons I like this image is the endless possibilities of how to paint. This time I tried my best to pull a nice horse feel...flickering and feathering, blending. I will say..I spent a long time on this image until I got more or less where I wanted to be! I am quite happy. I learned a lot...and the biggest lesson. Practice! : )
See you all . Don't forget to come by Bildmalarna challenge blog. Dont miss out on the exclusive images for the Club member!
Much luv

Magnolia Stamps :: Tilda in Purple

Candy candy candy? Who wants candy. Click here to try your to win so goooooods!
 Hello Tilda lovers!  Are you enjoying the lovely spring weather? Well, people down south of the Equator are enjoying a little cooling. My parents were roasting this past season. Now I am sure they are happy!
Anyway! Today I am sharing with you my lovely Petticoat Tilda and she comes dressed for the season. Sometimes I get bothered with plain color on my stamps and designs, so every now and then I try to create a little pattern. I am not sure how successful I was creating this plaid like top…I kind like the results. I think I will practice a little more : ). 

I opted to keep my embelishments simple because of the plaid in the background. Sometimes I feel that the card is naked without a little bling. HAHA. So, thanks to my trustworthy die cutter I was able to make my crazy idea come to life. I am not sure if I have a favorite part of this card, but if I had to choose I would pick the butterfly!  How about you? Drop a note! I am so glad I have made so many new friends and learned so much this way!
See ya’ll soon. Much luv

Magnolia stamp :: Spring ahead!

Howdy Everyone!
Phew after a long weekend..I am pooped, but happy. That is what matters. The best part? The sun is shinning and the flowers are popping everywhere. Oh...how much I love to see the yellow from the daffodils, the new leaf green (Did I just mention a copic color?) and the purples of crocuses and pansies! Can you tell I love spring and the colors that come with it? : ).
In anticipation on what to come and to celebrate mother nature I created this Magnolia card with huge flowers. I love to add a little texture to my cards, so once more I reached for my adored micro beads. I created the center of my flowers with i-toppers, copic markers and yes you got it! Micro brads! The picture does not make justice to the yumminess on how this came out. If you have not seen i-top tool, go check it out. You can make your own brads...it is sooooo cool to use!

To add a little extra touch of spring, I used mini jewels to mimic dew drops on the corner of my card. I will tell you, it took me quite a while to color the flower heads in that embossed background! Yes I am a nut, but I had so much fun! I really hope you liked this card, and I dream of more lovely inspirations coming from the season that just started! Happy spring and if you feel happy drop me a note here...I would love it!
Now hurry to Magnolia Stamp Lovers and participate on our latest challenge! Vivi is hosting a die cut challenge! Come over and link your Magnolia card! You could win one of the newest stamps from Magnolia. The bride and groom! Thank you Cindy for sponsoring the goods!
I entered this card also on Cinema Saturday Challenge. This is a great challenge blog! The gals choose 13 going into 30 as movie of the week...and I think my springy youthful gal would fit the bill!! Doesnt she look like naughty little girl?

Magnolia Stamp :: Play time

Hello! Isn't funny when you get out of your comfort zone all of sudden you become more efficient? Well this is my story with my new Magnolia card! People I had a blast making my Tilda in the swing! 

This baby came to my mind as soon as I saw the first tent card, including the swing (I saw so many beautifully done cards on the net as I looked for tuts). I had just the right image to use for this occasion Sixties Tilda. I also choose to go with a sort of monochromatic coloring vibe. Do you know something? I like it. It is amazing when you use tones on tones, you can still make things come to life! I am a sucker for p&b or sepia tones...actually this probably will be one of my next personal challenges. So much to learn, so little time. How about you? Do you get out of your comfort zone by challenging yourself? While you think..I will play...with my markers! Of course. : )
*** Shhh..I will have a Candy happening soon...so subscribe! I would love you to be here to have a chance to win something gooood!

Happy New Year :: Year of the Tiger

Let's celebrate! It is Chinese New Year~ Since I started making cards I am following all the holidays :) . This is the year of the Tiger! Let me say Chinese New year celebrations are so pretty. So many bright and beautiful colors! It is hard to resist this beautiful celebration without a card. In this card I colored one of my designs...some of the detail are all done by hand.

I hope the colorful creation will bring a little cheer to your day...Boy do we need a cheer! We officially had the snowiest season ever! It is simply spectacular outside..beautiful. It is amazing how nature can give a show every season! I just wished that would not stop me to get some General Tsao dish ; )....because I am just as hungry as a tiger! Grrrr. What is your favorite chinese dish...drop a note and tell me!
