Angel Boy

It's been a long time since I've posted a card so forgive me if I ramble a bit.  I'm back in good health though I still am waiting for my hair to grow back fully.  Over the winter while doing the chemo thing I stamped off many images of which this is one, I call him Angel Boy, but he's a Magnolia image.  The sentiment is from Papertrey Ink's designer Dawn McVey (Signature Greetings 11). The DP is from I don't know where, it's a paperpack that I've had for a long time. Thanks for stopping by if you do.

A Tilda Birthday

I had stamped off this Magnolia image quite awhile ago and since I had some time to play she became a birthday card.

I colored her up with Copics and cut her out with Deckled Rectangular Nestabilities. The DP is from two different paper packs, the matting for is from DCWV Green Stack, and the card base is from Basic Grey's Lemonade paper pack.

The sentiment is from a very old Hero Arts set, Wavy Wishes.

This particular Tilda is really a dress up doll. You get the basic Tilda then she has several outfits you can dress her in.

Takes me back to my days playing with my dress up dolls.

I really loved to get the cut outs and play dress up. Unfortunately for me most of the kids in my neighborhood were boys and we all know what boys do with dolls. Target practice!

Oh well I hope you like my Tilda. Thanks for stopping by.

Ride'em Cowboy Birthday

For the last few days I've been working on cards.

It is for a sale we are having at church and I wanted to contribute a few for the fund raiser.

What is funny is that I had been playing over the last week or so stamping and coloring images for later use. Comes in handy when I get on a binge like that.

I had stamped off a bunch of these Magnolia images and had them sitting there. So I colored them and then found some card bases that I had made up and put away months ago and put them together.

I think this one came out pretty well. What do you think? Thanks for stopping by.

Tilda

This Magnolia Stamp is a neat deal. Tilda is the basic stamp then there a two outfits to dress her in. This one is jeans and a top the other is shorts and a top. Really cute set up. I had this DP and thought it would be cute for the background. The sentiment is computer generated and brings back happy memories of the ice cream truck coming down the street on those hot summer days so many years ago. I colored Tilda up with Copics and then cut out the sentiment with Nestabilities. The little party hat is a Stamps by Judith stubbie. Hope you like it.

Waste No Want Not

I was in the groove making cards and made a U turn on a design. I had cut out a plain oval with my Nestabilities and then a scalloped oval also. I then didn't like the look so I set them aside. This was the paper I had left over and didn't want to waste it. So it became a frame for Pink Tilda(Magnolia). The sentiment (Birthday Basics from Paper Trey) is stamped on the reverse side of the base DP. A couple of rhinestones and I'm done. Always good to hang on to scraps. Speaking of scraps Amy Westerman of Heartfelt Greetings (see Favorites) does a neat thing on her blog by just pulling out a handful of scraps and making a card with them. Simply amazing and terrific are her designs.

Pink Tilda

Magnolia Stamps are so cute! I just love this one for a little girl. I've done this one as a birthday card but wouldn't it be cute for a little girl to give her Mom for Mother's Day ? The sentiment is from Papertrey Ink's Birthday Basics ( A great Set). I colored her with Copivs and layered her over several shades of pink. The bottom layer was punched with a Martha Stewart Punch. Hope you like it.
