Scarecrow Tilda at Just Magnolia and hÄnglar & stÄnglar Challenge

Happy Friday everyone!! I hope you have all had a wonderful week and are as ready for a wonderful weekend as I am!! For those of you who have suffered through any part of Irene, I hope that things are getting back to normal for you! My thoughts have been with you!

Today starts a new week at Just Magnolia and hÄnglar & stÄnglar Challenge where we are being hosted by the exceptionally talented Jacqui who has given us the theme of CIRCLES!! So come on over and play along with us--we would love to see your wonderful creations!! This is our Simon Says Stamp Monthly Challenge.

For my DT Sample card, I used Bazzill for the base, the DP is from the Hello Fall Glitter Paper Pad by Best Creation Inc., and all background panels are machine stitched. The cute little image I used is Scarecrow Tilda from Magnolia-licious which, along with the MINI, is available. They are too cute for words!! Tilda was stamped on Cryogen White and colored with Copics and Promarkers, adding Prisma Glitter to the bees and gold glitter to the lace. For the bottom horizontal I used WOC RAFFIA RIBBON as a base for the glittery K&Co pumpkins which were a sweet gift from Suzan...thanks, Sweetie!!! To finish the front I used a round sentiment from Catslife Press, a raffia bow, and a double fall leaf dangle charm.



The inside is very simple because I wanted the paper to show with all of the autumn words...so I merely added a bow with scarecrow button on the first panel and a bow and pumpkin button to the jotting panel.

The SNEAKY PEEKS for the next launch of the darling Christmas stamps from LOTV are still going on and I know you don't want to miss any of them!! Since there is only 5 more days till you can get your hands on the new Christmas release from Lili of the Valley, there will be a stamp giveaway for the next 5 days to two lucky winners each day so pop across to the Ideas to Inspire blog to enter and be in with a chance of winning one of the two cuties up for grabs today!

Thank you so much for dropping by today and I hope you will want to come by for a visit often!! It is always such a joy to know that you were here! Have a great weekend and I will be back real soon!! And Sunday there is another wonderful surprise at SUNDAY SENSATIONS!!! Until the next time, I send big hugs for YOU!!!

LOTV SNEAKY PEEKY - Little Bears-Snowman

A very Happy Thursday to everyone!! I hope your week is going very well and that by now anyone who was affected by Irene is in much better stead. My thoughts have been with all of you who suffered during the past weekend!

Today at CLP - Crafting Life's Pieces, a monthly sketch challenge blog, the sponsor for the month is LOTV. I am taking the opportunity to show you yet another of the darling images from the Second Christmas Launch which will take place on September 6. There are 22 new and cute stamps for you to see and NEED with this launch...smiles!!

For my card I used the sweet LITTLE BEARS - SNOWMAN and don't they look like they are having so much fun!!! The image was stamped on Cryogen White and colored with Copics and Promarkers, adding a bit of Stickles, Prisma Glitter, and Lily White Flock. The base is Bazzill, the DP is from the new BG Nordic Holiday Paper Pad, and all panels are machine stitched. I used a green MFT diecut for the round element and you can see that I have turned the sketch to meet the size requirements of my image. For the vertical I used some sparkly ricrac with the green organza ribbon, adding a double bow at the top. The little sign is made using an older stamp from Cornish Heritage Farms, coloring it with Promarkers and adding Liquid Applique for the snow. I thought those cute little bears NEEDED some mittens!!! lol To finish the front I used a couple of glittery snowflake ornaments and added some WOC Rhinestones to the centers.



The supplies on the inside are the same as the front with the addition of a pair of MS mittens on the jotting spot.

Thank you so much for dropping by and I hope you like my little card! Remember, we are counting the days off until September 6 when all of these new images will be available to you!!! I hope you will come by often to see me!! Have a wonderful rest-of-the-week! Sending a big hug to each of you!!!
