Just MagnoliaChallenge #48


Well we made it to the middle of the week again. I'm lucky this week I've managed to get an extra long weekend so my week is over and my weekend starts yeh! It took me a while to get this card together using the sketch for this weeks Just Magnolia Challenge and I'm really not sure that it stayed completely true to the sketch. I really like the cheeriness the yellow gives it. I don't usually work with yellows but I might have to have another go cause I think its growing on me.

I'll wish everyone a Happy Easter now in case I don't get on here again over the weekend-Hugs Tania

Just MagnoliaChallenge #47


This week over on Just Magnolia the challenge was to make an easel card. I've never made one before so I thought that I would give it a try.The 3D Flowers I make with the small EK Success flowerpower punch. I tinted the edges with Copic Marker and then shaped them with a stylus before layering them together and sewing a pearl bead in the center. Very fun to try but kind of finicky and time consuming. The image is coloured with copics and then I added Chrystal Effects to her umbrella, boots and raincoat.Thanks for stopping by. We're half way through the week, hang in there-Hugs Tania

DD Birthday Magnolia


Hi, happy Monday everyone. Just had to show you another Magnolia card I made last week. I'm starting to feel a little more comfortable with my copics and blond hair.For an added touch on this one I put crystal effects on the hair bow and rose, and stickles on her wings.I also added Vanilla Smooch spray to her dress after masking her face, arms, and stockings. You can't really tell in the picture but it makes her dress look like Satin.


Ingredients:

Main Stamp-Magnolia
Sentiment-Penny Black
Nestibilities
Punches-Martha Stewart & EK Success
PP-Close to my Heart

Thanks for stopping by for a visit, hope you have a great week-Hugs Tania

Springy Magnolia B-day card



This is a Magnolia image I colored last week and wasn't going to use as it ended up having a tiny little smudge on its mouth. It was lying there on my desk this weekend and I was working with something else and found paper that went perfectly with it and just couldn't resist using it anyway. I like how it turned out and you can't really see the smudge so I turned it into a b-day card-Thanks for stopping by-Hugs Tania

A Little Sarah Kay


Okay, So its been a while since I've posted anything and I'am so far behind on blog visits its unbelievable, but I just can't believe how fast time is flying by. How did it get to be almost the middle of March already!

Well I finally got to have a really good play session with my Copics at a Crazy Cropper retreat in Lake Country this last weekend. I have to say I'm really loving them. Here is my first try at a Sarah Kay image. I'm quite happy with it and can't believe its so easy to use them.

I also want to thank Leanne for organizing such a Fab weekend I had a blast!
I Don't have a colour list of Copics that I used for this, sorry, it will be something I have to get used to writing down I quess. Thanks for stopping by, Hugs Tania
