Bildmalarna stamp :: My orange therapy!

Hello Everybody! We are starting a new challenge at SSCC! Challenge #2 the is water! Come and join us! The prizes are always super good!

Holly molly it has been hot around here. But I am loving it! Summer is a super nice season…but I have to say I can never pick a favorite ! I am enjoying having a party in the backyard…not a real party, but I have guests coming over regularly everyday. Bunnies, dears, raccoons, cardinals, finches, wood peckers, blue jays…these are just a few. Even a cute opossum drops by! I know they are so darn ugly, but so fluffy cute!!! I just love animals! I hope when fall comes they will continue to come by…
I think one of the colors that speaks summer is orange.Remember a while ago I said I need to conquer some of my fear of certain colors? Yeah! I did it again! Orange is one of my fear factor colors! HAHAH. Seriously I love oranges, clementines, etc. I admire touches or oranges in summer like patterns, but again I was always keeping my orange markers in the back of my pile….No more! Here is my bildie to prove it! Isn’t she lovely!? Hurray! So,  how about you…have you been conquering and experimenting?
My card features  bildmalarna stamp from spring bildmalarna stamp club! Have you order the Fall club yet? There is still time! Copics, ribbon, cardstock, cuttlebug embossing folder and glue dots were used to make this card.
I will add the copic list later today! See you all then!

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

Okay! The sun is shinning and suddenly everyone gets out of the house...the thing is that...somehow they show  up at yours! HAHAH. 

I don't know about you, but after a hard winter where procrastination reigned, I got piles of things to put away! My Kitchen! OH dear! HAHAH. I need  a spring cleaning S.O.S. Thanks to my copics and a little dreammy brain. I made my wish come true. An emergency spring cleaning button. How about you? How badly you wish one of this?!

Super huge flowery hug

Ps:  By the way I entered this card at Cinema Saturday Creative, the inspiration movie is Julie and Julia. I have not seen this movie, but I know one thing about chefs and food tv shows..WHO CLEAN THE KITCHEN AFTERWARDS heheheh! My smart button sure came to mind as soon as I saw that theme!

The flowers around the switch is in honor of Nana's kitchen and that "lovely" springy wall paper (a great theme - flowers -  from Copic Creations challenge)! I used the great color choices by the guidelines at copic color challenge for my doodle flowers! Love it!

Magnolia Stamp :: Candy Happy!

Hello Everybody! I am so glad you are joining the fun at my Candy! Don't forget to put your name in the linkz! If you need help, check the helpline at the end of the post!

Well I am having a wonderful time reading all your comments. You have no idea how your words make me happy! It is so cool to visit you guys too! Now look who is also happy! My maggie! This is my latest idea. I used copics to color the magnolia stamp and also to create a little background for my little gal! I used what they call the blob method, heheh (have you read ilikemarkers blog?) to create most of the leaves and flowers. This was the first opportunity that I had to use my airbrush sys. Actually the copic airbrush feature actually was one of the first things that called my attention to these markers.
I got a little copic happy and I forgot to list my colors! So forgive me! If you have any questions about colors let me know (just use the shout out box on the side or leave me a comment). I will be more than happy to share!
I will add a a little This & That latter, okay? Thanks for dropping me a note!
XO

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.
