Sitting Pretty at Just Magnolia and hÄnglar & stÄnglar Challenge and SWEET STUFF!!!!
Happy Friday everyone!! I hope you have had a marvelous week and are all prepared for a great weekend! It has been so beautiful in these mountains and fall is just right around the corner for sure!!
Today is our new challenge at the Just Magnolia and hÄnglar & stÄnglar Challenge and I would love for you to join in with us this week. We are honored with a magnificent sketch from the lovely Jane who is hosting this week. We can't wait to see you there with your lovely creations!! There are two fabulous prizes this week: one from The Ribbon Girl and one from 7 Kids College Fund for two lucky participants!! We would love for you to have a peek at all of the magnificent DT Sample cards/projects over at the Just Magnolia and hÄnglar & stÄnglar Challenge...so come on over!!!
For my card I used Bazzill for the base and for all double matting, the DP is from the Life in the Country Paper Pad by Maja Design, and all background panels have been machine stitched. The image I used is Tilda With Daffodil from Magnolia-licious and although she is not available at the moment, her MINI counterpart is available. She was stamped on Cryogen White and colored with Copics and Promarkers and is resting on double die cuts from MFT dies. You can also see that instead of the daffodil, I added an aster daisy to match the floral treatment...smiles!!!! For the horizontal I used a 1" organza ribbon with double flat bow. The floral treatment is all by Wild Orchid Crafts: 1 3/8" Trellis Rose, White Lilies, and Aster Daisies resting on MS punched branches. The front was finished with WOC Self Adhesive Pearls. Hey, have you noticed that WOC has a new face!!!! Now US customers will see the information in US dollars and measurements are in the American system. Yippppeeeee!!!
For the inside of my card I used the same papers and basic design as the front. That gorgeous heart of hearts charm is from the WOC Mixed Heart Charms collection.
SWEET STUFF!!!! Just a little thank you to all of my FOLLOWERS, I have found a couple of things that you might like!! Please leave a comment before Sunday, October 2 at midnight EST and we will let Mr Random.org decide who the winner is! Those who have received my SWEET STUFFS know that I always throw some more sweeties in so....GOOD LUCK, one and all!!!!
1 - Paris Night Doohickey Die Set

Time for School, Miss Tilda!!!!
A very happy Friday to everyone and best wishes for a marvelous weekend!! Tis autumn in these mountains so I am going to have some outside time methinks--just enjoying the delicious fall weather!!
Today is our new challenge at the Just Magnolia and hÄnglar & stÄnglar Challenge and I would love for you to join in with us this week. Michelle O is hosting this week and has given us the theme of FALL/BACK TO SCHOOL to play with this time. We can't wait to see you there with your lovely creations!! There is a fabulous prize this week from Quixotic Paperie for some lucky participant!! We would love for you to have a peek at all of the magnificent DT Sample cards/projects over at the Just Magnolia and hÄnglar & stÄnglar Challenge so come on over!!!
For my DT Sample card this week I used Bazzill for the base and all double matting, the DP is from the BG Oxford pad, the grade card is from Crate Paper School Spirit Collection, and all background panels are machine stitched. The little cutie I used is from the 2008 So Heavenly/Travel/School Collection and is Tilda With Pencils. She is available at Magnolia-licious. I personally think it is time to see some more school cuties from Magnolia, don't you? I colored her with Copics and Promarkers, adding a touch of Star Dust Stickles to the lace on her dress. The autumn sentiment circle is from Catslife Press. For the horizontal I used two different widths of grosgrain ribbon and tied the smaller one into a double flat bow. All of the sweet school embellies are from a local miniature shop...I just love those pencils!!! Of course an old school teacher loves pencils and papers anyway!! hahahah But please don't ask me about papers...that's a topic for another day...smiles!!
The inside is very simple--I just used more grosgrain ribbon with twine tied red buttons and another of those cute pencils on the jotting spot!
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!!

Penguins Aplenty!!!!
A very happy late Sunday evening and a wonderful start for your new week! I hope that your weekend was spectacular and that your week will be delightful also!! I know mine will be!!
Just for fun I decided to make a little 6"X6" holiday gift box featuring the cutest penguins ever!! I used the sweet little LOTV Fishing Buddies from the latest release and colored it with Copics and Promarkers, cutting it out with Nesties. To finish the image I used Gold Spica for the stars, Glossy Accents for the water, Star Dust Stickles for the ice, and Prisma Glitter for the snowflakes. The paper is from Recollections and I just love those dots with the penguins!! I first put a WOC Miniature Silver Ringing Bell on each corner with some tiny red satin ribbon. I then placed the panel on top and edged the entire box with red ball fringe. I crisscrossed white satin ribbon and red polka dot ribbon, adding a double bow. To finish the front I used a couple of snowflake ornaments, topping them with BG holly leaves and some little 15mm Open Roses.
This side view will give you and even better view of the penguin theme from the LOTV image! The Penguin on top decided to fish instead of skate around...smiles!!
Thank you so very much for dropping by and I hope to see you again real soon! I would love to hear what you think about my little gift box! Have a wonderful week and until the next time I send great big hugs your way!!!

Tis Autumn in the Pumpkin Patch and Maggie Baggie SWEET STUFF!!!
Happy Friday to each of you!! I hope you are having a marvelous week and have accomplished all that you wished! I also hope you all have a fantastic weekend!! Gosh it is beginning to feel like autumn here in these mountains--I love the warm days and chilly evenings!!! And sooner than later, all of the leaf-lookers will be invading to see the beauty of the Blue Ridge for sure!!
Today is our new challenge at the Just Magnolia and hÄnglar & stÄnglar Challenge and I would love for you to join in with us this week because I am hosting and have a sketch with a FALL IS IN THE AIR theme!!! Gosh I can't wait to see you there with your lovely creations!! There are TWO wonderful prizes this week, so this may just be your lucky week!!!! We have a £ 10 Voucher at Dies To Die For AND a wonderful set of Promarkers Brights from Letraset. Nobody could resist those fabulous prizes so come on over!!!
For my DT card I used Bazzill for the base and all double matting, the DP is from Hello Fall by Best Creations, and all background panels are machine stitched. Those papers are soooo glittery--just love them!! The darling little hÄnglar Pumpkin Girl was stamped twice on XPress-It Blending Card and the little girl was cut out so that she could be propped up for more dimension. The image was colored with a combo of Copics and Promarkers and cut out with triple Oval Nesties. The bow is made of Wild Orchid Crafts Raffia Ribbon adding some WOC Sunflower/Daisy Flowers and a silver rake and leaves charm. To finish the front I used several buttons...Indian Corn, pumpkins, and a gourd.
The inside is very simple so that the glittery paper would show. On the first panel I used a Catslife Press Autumn stamp along with some more raffia bows, sunflowers, and button.
I hope you like my little card and will go have a peek at the absolutely wonderful cards made by the Just Magnolia and hÄnglar & stÄnglar Challenge Design Team using my simple sketch!!! They are stunningly gorgeous!!
And now, because I am hosting this week, I wanted to have a little surprise for my FOLLOWERS!!!! So.....

Tilda Is Baking at Just Magnolia and hÄnglar & stÄnglar Challenge AND SWEET STUFF!!
Happy Friday again to all of you!!! Well, we are closer to a weekend!! And that's always a good thing!!! Have a wonderful one!!!!
I am late with my Just Magnolia and hÄnglar & stÄnglar Challenge because I was inundated with appointments this week and last evening I couldn't see worth a flip because of dilated eyes, so please forgive me!!! This week we are being hosted by the magnificent Bev Rochester who has given us a fun and exciting sketch to use. You may rotate and/or flip the sketch, add any embellies you like and a sentiment too, just as long as we can still see the basic structure. There are two wonderful prizes this week--one from Stamping Scrapping and one from Crafty Sentiments Designs. So come on over and join in with us so we can see your lovely creations using Bev's sketch!!
For my card I used Bazzill for the base and all matting, the DP is from BG Nordic Holiday, and all background panels are machine stitched. I used the darling little Tilda Is Baking from Magnolia-licious and although she is not in the shop at the moment, she is on order!! She is really baking those gingerbread boys, isn't she? She was colored with Copics and cut out with triple Nesties. For the horizontal I used some double sided satin ribbon tied into a bow to dangle a gingerbread boy charm. To finish the front I added the red Happy Holidays which are buttons as well as a rolling pin and two gingerbread boy buttons!
The inside is very simple because I just love that DP--so many cute holiday things on it!! I just added a simple ribbon and dotted bows and gingerbread children.
And now for a little bit of SWEET STUFF for my wonderful FOLLOWERS!!!! Since I am going to be on a short R&R this weekend, I will have a touch of SWEET STUFFS as well as SUNDAY SENSATIONS this weekend to keep you busy while I am away...smiles!!!

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!!!

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!!!
