Tis Planting Time at Just Magnolia and hÄnglar & stÄnglar Challenge

Happy Friday, everyone!!! I hope you have had a most enjoyable week and are ready for a magnificent weekend!!!! It looks as though the rains are over here and it's outside and play, play, play and plant, plant, plant for me!!!! Gosh, that's what I have been awaiting for months!!! But I can tell you that the roses are starting to peek some color out so it won't be long until they are blooming...which will make Jacque a happy girl!!!!

This week at the Just Magnolia and hÄnglar & stÄnglar Challenge we are being hosted by Deb who has given us the theme of Pastel/Spring Colors...and that was so much fun and right up my alley!!!! Those are my very favorite colors for sure....There is also a very nice prize to be given to some lucky participant so come on over and join in with us to see if this is your lucky week!!!

I made a Criss-cross card using Bazzill for the base and matting and the DP is from the Pink Paislee London Market Paper Stack...and I think these papers are so lovely!!! I used a sweet little hÄnglar & stÄnglar image which was stamped on X-Press It and colored with Copics and Flexmarkers and cut out with Petite Oval and Petite Scalloped Oval Nesties. The image was stamped 3 times and you can probably tell that the head and flower tray were cut out separately and propped up for added dimension. I edged each side of the criss-cross with white flat lace. I used some Recollection Pearl Trim for each side and the bows are made from WOC Satin Ribbon with a 5/8" Open Rose, and 1/4" Closed Rosebuds.



This pic gives you an idea of the little pullout for writing a sweet message!!

I hope you like my little creation and will decide to jump on over and join in with us at the Just Magnolia and hÄnglar & stÄnglar Challenge this week. We would love to see your wonderful creations using Pastel/Springtime Colors!!!

SWEET STUFF for my FOLLOWERS!!!!




I have an extra Flower Soft Floral Bouquet Color Selection Box which has 7 different colors of Flower Soft and I would love to share it with one of my FOLLOWERS. All you have to do is leave a comment before Sunday, April 22, at midnight EST in order to be in for the draw! Good Luck!!!

Thank you so much for dropping by and I hope you will want to come by often! Have a lovely weekend and enjoy each moment!!! Until we meet again, I send big hugs!!!

Diamonds and Pearls at Lili's Little Fairies Challenge

Happy day to each of you!! I hope that you are having a marvelous week! We have had rain, rain, rain...and I am ready for sunshine and outside. There is not much fun in getting ready for a painter to come in and make havoc of the entire house!! EEEeeek!! But some things just have to be done...whether I like it or not!!!!

Today is the new challenge over at Lili's Little Fairies Challenge where our theme is DIAMONDS and PEARLS! Doesn't that sound like fun, fun, fun!!! You can bet that there will be a wonderful prize to be won, so I hope you will come on over and join in with us this week!

For my card, I used Bazzill for the base and all double matting and the DP is from the Inkido Forever Collection No.3. I also used the cutest little dancing couple, Shall We Dance, from the latest LOTV release. The image was colored with Copics and Flexmarkers, using Prisma Glitter on her dress and hairbow and tiny pearls for his cufflinks. After cutting the image out with Petite Scalloped Nesties I encircled it with clear gems by Heidi Swapp. The left side gems and the corner gems are by Recollection. I finished the card with a larger pink silk double flat bow.

I didn't finish the inside but I am adding a little computer generated sentiment..."Dance Like Nobody Is Watching!"....smiles

I hope you like my little creation and will decide to join in with us all this week!! Thank you so much for dropping by and I hope that you will want to come by often! Have a delightful rest of the week...and until the next time I send BIG HUGS!!!!

MINI BEAR at Lili's Little Fairies Challenge!!

A very happy day to everyone! I hope that everything is wonderful in your world because it certainly is in mine! I have until the 27th to await my next oncologist appointment so I am thinking ALL is wonderful!!! There is always a little bit of trepidation BUT what could be wrong is beyond me!!! I am doing GREAT!!!!!

Today is the next challenge over at Lili's Little Fairies Challenge and this week our theme is TRANSPORT....which means that you can interpret the word in any way you wish....from public transportation to fairy wings...hahahah The card that I made for the challenge is a request from a grandmother whose grandson is just getting ready to get a driving permit and she wanted to remind him of curfew AND speeding...so I hope I captured both of those ideas!!! I used the cute LOTV Mini Bear who is out and about sporting his little blue convertible!!! He was colored with Copics and Promarkers. The base is Bazzill, the double matting is PTI, and the DP is from the EP A Boy's Life paper pad. I used a Heidi Swapp clock mask to remind him of the curfew and a little MF envie and tag with police car button to remind him about the consequences of speeding...hahahah. The envie is held with a metal clip. For the vertical I used some PTI ribbon with a metal ribbon slide and to finish the front I added some metal brads which reminded me of a steering wheel...chuckle!!


The inside is very simple with just another stretch of ribbon with a round metal ribbon slide on the first panel...and for the jotting panel I used a MF envie/tag with some metal corners and a ribbon pull! The little envie can also hold a gift card behind the tag!

I hope you like my little boy creation....gosh they are difficult for me!!...and will decide to join in with us and show us your interpretation of TRANSPORT. Thank you so much for visiting me and I hope you will come back and see me again real soon!! Have a magnificent day and until the next time, I send big hugs!!!

Lemon Pepper and SWEET STUFF!!

Happy Day, Everyone!!! I hope you are having a delightful week and I can assure you that mine is MUCH better than the last week! Gosh, it is so wonderful to be back in touch with all of you!!!

I was unable to join in on the Whimsy PEEKIES but I wanted to show you a card I made using the absolutely darling little Lemon Pepper from the Little Cottage Cuties Collection illustrated by Elisabeth Bell for Whimsy Stamps. She was colored with Copics and Promarkers, adding Prisma Glitter to the balloon. The base and all double matting is Bazzill and the DP is from the Lily Bee Design Double Dutch Tiny Tablet. For the horizontal I used some red checked ribbon with double flat bows. The floral treatment is all from Wild Orchid Crafts: Cherry Blossoms, Sweetheart Blossoms, and Gypsophilia. Finally I added some red gem swirls.


For the first inside panel I used some red flower trim and added some Liquid Pearls to the centers of the flowers and on the second panel I used a MF kraft envelope with tag for the jotting area, adding some red checked ribbon and red gem swirls.

SWEET STUFF for my FOLLOWERS!!!








I have an extra little Lemon Pepper and would love to give her a good home!!! Isn't she the cutest little thing!!! Just leave a comment before Friday, April 13 at midnight EST and she could be flying on her way to you!!!

Stampavie's BIBI and a bit of SWEET STUFF!!!

Happy Day, Everyone!!! I think I am FINALLY back in the land of the computer living...and gosh it has been so nerve-wracking!!!! They have finally fixed all of the phone lines that were hit with the terrible lightning and I have finally recovered all of my programs---I hope!!! It is amazing how lost I felt with having no contact with you all!!!! I was not a happy camperette but hopefully this is just a practice in patience--making me one of those virtuous people...hahahahha!!!

Today I would love to share with you my very first posting over at the Stampavie Design Team Blog and I would love for you to come on over and leave a message there and even become a FOLLOWER so that you won't miss any of the wonderful inspiration from the Stampavie Design Team.

For my card I used the absolutely darling little Sarah Kay BIBI holding her obvious Best Friend. She was stamped on X-Press It and colored with Promarkers and Flexmarkers before cutting her out with Nesties Petite Ovals. I added a touch of Star Dust Stickles to the ruffles and a dot of Liquid Pearls to the button on her shoe. The Base and all double matting is Bazzill and the DP is from the Vintage Marketplace paper pack from BBP. For the vertical I used some pleated organza trim topped with a pink ruched ribbon to anchor a white openwork heart button. The floral treatment is all by Wild Orchid Crafts: Trellis Roses, Open Roses, Hip Rosebuds, Wild Rosebuds, all resting on MS punched branches. The sweet sentiment is from the Tina Wenke DREAM collection Finally I used Recollections Pearls to soften the corners.


On the first panel I used a Venice Lace Applique Heart topped with a pink glitter heart. And on the jotting panel just another heart button on ruched ribbon.

SWEET STUFF...and now for a little bit of SWEET STUFF for my very favorite people--my FOLLOWERS!!!! I have been going through all of my STUFF during my move and if I have more than one....that stuff will belong to one of my followers!!!


1 Set of Inkadinkadoo Baby Love Stamps (8 stamps)

1 Set of MM Je t'Adore Vintage Frames
