New Magnolia stamp

Today I'm sharing a new Tilda stamp that I have.  I have to tell you, I'm so happy with how she turned out, I colored 4 of them all at once!  It's such a cute stamp and so easy to color (for some reason this one was easier and quicker for me to color than others).

I used my metallic gold thread again and just love the extra bit of sparkle that it adds to my cards.  I also broke out the "jingle bells" for the first time this year.  You'll probably be seeing more of them as the weeks go by.

Challenges:
Christmas Stampin' All Year Long - Jingle All the Way
Just Magnolia - Merry Christmas!
Paper Playtime - Anything Goes

Bear-ing Gifts

Happy Sunday everyone!  I hope you all had a wonderful weekend.  I've got another Christmas card with James Bear from Lili of the Valley.  Did I mention that I just love this stamp? 

I used some darker browns on him, but didn't write down the Copics that I used.  Hopefully I'll be able to figure it out for the next time I color him as I really like the darker colors.

Another Tilda Calendar Page

Well, I have another calendar page to share with you.  I did something different with this one.  I decided that I spend too much time fussing over what to add to my cards, etc., so this time I kept moving.  I didn't take the time to nitpick over what I put on the card.  I just kept adding stuff and overall I'm pretty happy with it.

I came across some Magnolia flowers and glass garlands that I won from some blog candy last year, so I decided to use them on this project...finally.  That's another problem I have; I want to save my "good stuff" for a better project.  Well, no more!  It's time to clear out some of this stuff I've had for a while and make room for more new stuff.   

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Just Magnolia - Anything Goes
Sketch Saturday - Sketch
By the Cute and Girly  - Anything Goes
ABC Christmas Challenge - U is for Unused Stash (flower, glass garland)

Also, just a reminder that Suzanne Dean will be in San Jose, CA next weekend (Oct. 22nd & 23rd) to teach her CMC on the Road Class and there is still time to get registered.  I attended her class in SC a few months ago and just loved it!  I would highly recommend going if you get the chance.  You can find all of the details here.

Supplies:
Stamps: Magnolia Tilda
Papers:  Cryogen White Cardstock, K & Co.
Ink:  Copics
Misc:  Wild Orchid Crafts flowers, Magnolia flower & glass garland, ribbon, brad, Making Memories flower, pearls, Stickles
