Distressing Magnolia

I've been working on a project this week for the Anya Blog Hop, so I've not had time to stamp outside of what I was working on. I can't wait to show that off tomorrow, cuz I threw a party when I finished it up today!

Since I was all done, it meant I got to play the Just Magnolia challenge. And what a challenge it was for me! It was distressing. I struggle with that style. I love seeing cards made all nice and shabby, but it's so hard for me! I completed my card though! I also did another challenge with this card. It was get fruity off Cute Card Thursday. My papers have fruits on them. Shockingly, I had no layout challenge on my card! I do love those lately.

Supplies: Magnolia stamp, copics, primas, MS punch, dew drops, DCWV Summer Stack, glimmer mist, nesties, scrappers floss, SU So Saffron and Cool Carr. cardstock, close to cocoa ink pad, stickles.

A call for help-Thanks!

ETA: Thanks for the tips, ladies! I got the link now! Thanks a ton! Gotta love bloggers!

Okay, I need some help. I did that Stamp out Alzheimer's thing not to long ago, and was given a free down load of a 3D cupcake. I can't find the sucker on my computer at all. I see the zip file, but I can't locate it or get my computer too. I was wondering if any of you know what I'm talking about and where I can purchase it at. I can't recall the name of the girl who made it, I think it said Kelleigh, but not positive, to look her up and find it. Can anyone help me? Please! I'm dying to have it for a project.

Happy Mojo

Here's my take on the Mojo Monday sketch. I combined with a few other challenges today.

Pile It On, water coloring. I water colored my grass and sky.

CCEE Stampers challenge, which was flowered paper, and one brad. I just gasped, thinking I forgot the brad! It's in the flowers!

I did the Cupcake Craft Challenge, which was pink, green, brown, animals and flowers. I went with an image that was an animal with a flower! This was given to me by Tammi. Isn't it a cute cat?

It's also Bee Crafty for summer fun. The kittie is dressed for summer in her bright pink shirt, and gardening with her little flower pot!

Supplies: nesties, copics, primas, gems, basic buttons, Basic Grey paper, SU rose red, choco chip cardstock, rose red ribbon, SU sentiment, SU word punch windows, scrappers floss, stickles.

Bright Christmas Bear

I had to giggle to myself when I saw the Cupcake Inspiration Challenge today. What fun colors! And I just knew I had the perfect Christmas paper for those colors in her cupcakes. I love bright colors, and I've been playing Sparkle's Christmas Challenge for a few months now, so my brain goes to Christmas Cards on Sunday. And those cupcakes were perfect with my holiday papers!

Today's card also covers a few other challenges. It's the Pink Elephant Challenge, which was animals. I got this darling image from my friend, Tammi! Thanks so much Tammi, I loved them all! It's also the sketch for Our Creative Corner. 2RedBananas had a challenge to spell it out. I did two in one with the stickers, I spelt it out, and used a sticker as part of Sparkle's challenge today. We have High Hopes, which is bling! I'm covered on this one with glitter galore! Finally, Secret Crafter was to use three buttons, one ribbon and two designer papers.

Other supplies: Copics, fun flock, SU glitter, Martha glitter, SU sentiment, Word punch window, Ballet blue, green, but can't remember which one, DCWV papers, nesties.

Thanks for stopping by!

Sunny Magnolia

I think I might have beaten Debbie! Woo hoo for me! (Nope, I just copied her blog to link it, and saw she put up a card already! Good for her!) LOL! I had to get up early with the puppy, he woke up at 7:00, and all I could think about was to go check out the Just Magnolia challenge to try to get it done before her. But I was too tired to get up stairs! Once I started this card the glass man came to fix a broken bay window. 500 bucks later, I can see clearly now! Hubby will be happy when he sees it when he gets home tonight.

Anyhow, this is my take on the Magnolia Sketch Challenge this week. I used Basic Grey Lemonade, SU Rose Red, and So Saffron cardstocks. I grabbed this Magnolia because it reminded me of my friend, Kim. The sentiment is from Pink Cat Studios Summer Lily set.

Other supplies: SU word punch, stickles, copics, prima flowers.
