Hi everyone! I hope your weekend was a good one :) I got a lot of crafting done, which I'm very happy about because it's been a while since I've been able to just create for no reason than just pure fun.
I used one of my newest Magnolia Stamps today called Tilda with Lace Flag. She just looks so sweet marching around with her flag! All the papers used on this card came from the BasicGrey Pyrus 6x6 Paper Pad, which is one of the newest releases from BasicGrey.
I've really been into creating panels lately and layering different-shaped Nestabilities. This time, for the two panels in the back, I've layered the Nestabilities Labels 1 on top of the Large Classic Scalloped Squares. I blinged out with flowers with some Stickles to give them a little pizazz and added some texture to the circle using the Bloom Dots A2 Embossing Folder.
As you can see, a lot of the supplies I used are available at the 7 Kids Store so make sure to hop on over to the store to pick up a few goodies!
Remember, we still have a challenge going on at the 7 Kids College Fund Challenge Blog! The current challenge ends on Tuesday night, so make sure to get your entries in.
Stamp: Magnolia Stamps Tilda with Lace Flag
Coloring Medium: Distress Reinkers with Small Koi Water Brush
Paper: BasicGrey Indian Summer
Accessories: Prima flowers, Stickles
Tools: Cuttlebug, Nestabilities Labels 1, Nestabilities Large Classic Scalloped Squares, Bloom Dots A2 Embossing Folder, Making Memories Paper Trimmer, ATG adhesive gun
Hi all! Thanks for stopping by. I used Gavin the Givin’ Dragon for my manly card today. All patterned paper is from Basic Grey’s Olive 6X6 paper pad including the paper pieced gifts. I love what a little paper piecing can do for your image. I thread some ribbon to add some texture and used Fiskars Apron and Lace border punch behind my image which I colored with Copics.
This week High Hopes is celebrating it’s challenge blog’s birthday. To celebrate there will be three winners this week. The first wins ten stamps of their choice and the second and third winners, five of their choice. How could I resist taking a shot at winning my favorite stamps?!? The challenge is the sketch above. Hope you like it and wish me luck!
My family has been sick but is finally coming around. I’ll be back tomorrow with a Halloween Cricut card. I hate being away so long. I’ve missed you!
BTW, I change up my format from time to time when my card is going to be featured on 7 Kids Blog. I always wonder if it throws you off when I do so. Hope it makes more sense now. I added the supplies list on the bottom (even though it is stated above) which is the regular format.
Supplies
Stamps: High Hopes- Gavin the Givin’ Dragon
Paper: Basic Grey 6X6 Paper Pad- Oliver, Bazzill
Accessories: ribbon, thread, Fiskars Apron Lace Border Punch, Pebbles Candy Dots
Color Medium: Copics- W2, W4, W6, 0, Y0000, R32, YG91, YG93, YG95
I have pined over this Penny Black “Your the Bestest” stamp for months and months. I finally ordered it and inked it up as soon as it arrived. I must say I was right, it is fabulous! I colored the image with my beloved Copics and paired it with papers from Basic Grey Max & Whiskers mini deck and Cosmo Cricket Wanted mini deck. Although I colored the flowers with different markers they sort of blended together with the color of the cat. To rectify the situation I drew on a bit of faint glitter with a Sakura Gelly Roll pen. I then inked the background around the image with antique linen distressed ink. A few embellishments, some sewing, and voila!
Copics Used- YR12, E37, E39, E97, E99, 0, Y21, Y23, Y26, Y28, Y35, YR15, YR18, YG91, YG93, YG95, Y38, W2, R32

JAM TILDA
I used Jam Tilda and the Tin Boxes stamps from Magnolia to create this card. The panel behind Tilda was cut using a Label Nestability andairbrushed with some YG93 Copic marker. The paper is some Basic Grey Infuse I had lying around. I used my sewing machine to create a whimsical border.
Here is a close-up of Tilda. Everything was colored with Copics and cut out. I added some glossy accents to the window of the heart cookie tin. Inkssentials Gel Pen was added to Tilda's cheeks.

BEACH TILDA
I have not made a ton of summery card this summer, so I thought I would get crackin' before summer is over!
For this card, I used Beach Tilda, Beach Fence, and Bridge Deck stamps from Magnolia Stamps. The base paper is from Bazzill and the DP is some new Basic Grey Olivia available over here. I used some flowers from Wild Orchid. I used white flowers and airbrushed them with myCopic Air Brush System with some R21 Copic marker. The leaf punch is my new Nellie Snellen Floral Branch punch. I am in love with this new punch!! The sentiment comes from a PTI Limited Edition set. I used Nestabilities to cut out the sentiment and the stamped image. I used the Lattice Border punch from Martha Stewart.
For the stamped image, I did lots of masking. I stamped the Bridge Deck and masked it off to airbrush the sand and water, again with my Copic ABS. Then, with it still masked off, I stamped the Beach Fence and masked it off to airbrush the sky. Tilda was colored with Copics, cut out and layered using dimensional adhesive. Below are the Copics I used.

TILDA WITH FLOWING HAIR
This little Maggy of mine had not seen any ink in a while, so I decided to give her some love! Gosh, I have so many that have not seen any ink! I need to get busy inkin' them up!
This is Tilda with Flowing Hair. I used a distressing tool and distressed all of the edges of the cardstock and DP. I layered 2 Primas for the floral embellishment. For the hydrangea, I airbrushed it with my Copic ABS and some YG93 Copic Marker. I added some pearlsaround the rectangle as another accent. I also used a floral branch punch, an EK Success Swirl punch and some white fabric covered floral wire for the swirly-things (availale at craft stores in floral section) to complete the embellishment.
I colored Tilda with my Copics and cut her out. It is hard to tell in this picture, but I added some clear Stickles to her basket of flowers and to the purple Prima.
Here are the colors I used to color Tilda:
Skin: E000, E00, E11, R20
Clothes & Flowers: RV0000, RV91, RV93, RV95
Hair: E50, E53, E55, E59
Basket & Shoes: E31, E33, E35, E37, YG91, YG93, YG95,
