Magnolia Christmas Calendar Day 18

Hello Magnolia Fans!

I am your host today for the Magnolia  Christmas Calendar Day 18.

It's Divine Tilda for my card today. I kept it simple to  make Tilda the focal point of the card.

She is colored with Distress Ink Reinkers on watercolor paper.

For the accent stamp, I used the Holly Swirl from the Christmas Story Collection and the Snowflake border die is from the the DooHickey Club # 3.

Magnolia Sweden is giving away a special prize each Magnolia Christmas Calendar Day.  And for a chance to win, just leave a comment below and I will choose a winner and announce it on

Tilda in Cozy Coat

Happy Friday everyone!

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Yes it is! For my card today,  I used Tilda in Cozy Coat from the Waiting for Christmas Collection. As I was about to color the image, I looked at my Copic color chart to see which colors I have not used a lot. And I noticed that I have not really used the

 BG 32, 18, 15, 13, 11, 10. So I decided to use those colors for Tilda's coat.  Luckily, I found a piece of card stock and patterned paper that would go perfectly with the colored image.

Here is Tilda up close.

Copics used:

Skin: E 13, 11, 00, 000, 0000

Hair: E 47, 37, 35, 33, 51

Coat: BG 32, 18, 15, 13, 11, 10, C 6, 4, 2, 1, 0

Gloves/Leggings: E 44, 43, 42, 41

Boots: BG 18, 13,  C, 6, 4, 2, 1, 0

Background: BG 10, 000, 0000

I kept the card CAS and I used some Mama Elephant Dies for this card. The sentiment is from 

CC Designs. 

Thank you for stopping by today and I hope you have a wonderful weekend!

Christmas Eve Tilda

If you are looking for the Magnolia Dt Christmas Blog Hop, CLICK on the image below!

Hello Magnolia Fans!

I have a simple card to show you today.

As I was going thru my "colored-images-but-didn't-make-it-into-a card-yet" box, I found this 

Christmas Eve Tilda from the Winter Wonderland Collection from last year.

She is colored using Distress Ink Reinkers.  I also found a whole sheet of patterned paper that matched the colors I used on the image.

I finally made it into a card! Yay me!  Sometimes, I just love to color and my colored images tend to pile up so quickly.  Coloring Magnolia images is my way of relaxing. But making them into cards makes everything more fun! So keep creating with Magnolia images.  

Thanks for stopping by! I'll see you again soon!

My card for today features Tilda with Apple Wreath from the Waiting from Christmas Collection. I have colored her with Distress Ink Reinkers on watercolor paper. The sentiment Merry Christmas Text is from the Winter Wonderland Collection. The Magnolia DooHickey's used are the

 Wooden Sign and some from the DooHickey Club #2.

Here's a close up of Tilda holding the apple wreathe. I added some Glossy Accents to give the apples some dimension and shine.

Christmas Ornament Cards

Hello my lovelies!
Are you caught up with your Christmas card making like I am? Well,  I have 2 easy-to-make, simple and quick cards for the holidays. And I will probably be making more of these cards.

For the first card, I used  Christmas Bauble, Leaf & Swirl,  Cozy Fern & Snowflake,  Sparkle Snowflakes,  A Merry Christmas text.

And for the second one, I used  Ornament Pointy Kit,  Cozy Fern & Snowflake

Sparkle Snowflakes, Afternoon Tea Bench, (scroll design on the right ornament)
 A Merry Christmas text.

I used Ranger Embossing Powder in Platinum to emboss the snowflakes and the scroll. I also embossed a piece of paper before die cutting them for the top part of the ornament. It was so much fun making these cards and it took me just a few minutes to make them.

AND

 Watch out for the Magnolia Design Team Christmas Blog Hop!
Coming really soon!

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your weekend!

Ribbon Tilda

Hello Magnolia fans.

Today, I have a card using an older Magnolia stamp.This is Ribbon Tilda from the Sweet Christmas Dreams Collection of 2011. This collection was released just a month or two after I started card making.  Tilda is colored with Copics and the flowers, leaves and twigs were cut using Magnolia DooHickey Dies.

I love the versatility of this stamp. I know that this is from a Christmas collection but you can surely use this image for Valentines or other occasion.
 

I will see you again soon.  Thanks for stopping by!

Have a wonderful weekend everyone!

Ski Star Tilda

Happy Monday everyone!

Christmas is just around the corner and latest Magnolia Collection Waiting For Christmas has the perfect images for you Christmas cards this year. 

This is Ski Star Tilda.  And I colored her using Copic Sketch Markers. For the falling snow and the snow on the ground, I used embossing paste.

Here's Tilda up close

If you're on Facebook and you are a member of the Magnolia group, you probably saw a card similar to this. Yulis, my Magnolia Design Teammate  posted  her card last week. And as soon as I saw it, I messaged her and told her that I had almost the exact same card.  I finished my card early last week, the exact same time she finished hers. So she told me to post it together with her card. Unfortunately,  I scheduled to post this card today and I didn't have an extra card or time to make another one.

 Yulis and I chat online very so often but we never thought of making the same card. We have the same interests...not only in crafting but also in other things not related to cardmaking.

 I also want to be neighbors with her because she has all my favorite tropical fruits in her backyard! And even though she is thousands of miles away, I'm so glad I can call Yulis as my dear friend and as the saying goes "great minds think alike...", well, for Yulis and I, "crafty minds think alike...sometimes at the same time!" :)

Anywhooo...that's the story behind my card.  

Thank you for stopping by and I hope to see you again soon!
