Polkadoodles Boneshakin Shaker Card

Hi there!  Today I'm going to share a shaker card featuring some new Boneshakin goodies!!  I started by using the Grungey Slime halloween stencil but didn't actually make it that grungy.  😂 Next time I'll try green or gross red.  LOL!  I first did the stencil in black distress oxide and then covered it with Rangers Stickles Asteroid glitter gel.  Looks super sparkly in real life.  I used a piece of design paper from the "Boneshakin Halloween 6" x 6" paper pad, which by the way, has a bunch of fun and very traditional Halloween patterns and colours.  Love that!  🎃

I was on a tear colouring up a bunch of these cuties at the same time and used my copics.  I really like how her hair turned out!!  OH and speaking of "her", this is Best Witches Winnie Wednesday clear stamp set.  Isn't she cute with her little kitten?!  🥰

I've stamped a sentiment from the Boneshakin Halloween Winnie Wednesday stamp set, on to some copic paper and then did a graduated colouring to add some colour.  They looked kind of plain when I had them on just white paper so I wanted to pump them up a bit.  😀  I also put some foam dots behind for a bit of dimension.

Here is a little shaker video to see the movement of the shaker guts.  Yes that's a technical term "shaker guts".  😂😂

For those of you who normally have kids that trick or treat I hope something gets sorted out to allow them to collect some goodies.  I know it won't be the same as any other year but what is these days?

Hugs to all and thanks for stopping by!  💕

Happy Halloween Winnie

Hello there and welcome back to my very traditionally coloured Halloween card.  

I used a piece of design paper from the Boneshakin Halloween paper pad and added some black soot distress ink oxide over the Spider Web halloween stencil.  It's a very subtle addition and DANG now as I'm writing this I was just thinking how cool it would have looked in white!  I JUST GOT SOME WHITE INK TOO!!  Apparently not use to having it.  LOL!  You can also get this in a package of 5 Halloween Layering stencils, which would be my personal preference.  😀

I've popped one of the two main images from the Happy Halloween Winnie Wednesday clear stamp set atop of the largest Elegant nest die.  This stamp package comes with 11 stamps including sentiments and accessory stamps.  ADORABLE!!  💕 I've added some spider web (fake since I don't have a spider farm to create it for me) over the die, flowers and tree.  Ya ... a little creepy but isn't that the point?  😂😂  The sentiment came from another set called Boneshakin Halloween Winnie Wednesday.

Here is another pic of the tree with spider web draping over it.  I just had to add the little blingy spider next to the tree cuz that's just plain cute.  😆

I know some countries don't celebrate Halloween but if you live in one do you make them anyway?  I used to dress up in costumes when I was younger but now we live out in the country and we don't even get any little trick or treaters to give out candy to.  I suppose this year is going to be a very strange one and I feel so bad for all the little kids but I'm sure something fun will get figured out for them.  

Hugs to all and thanks for stopping by!

Penguin Pumpkin Patch

I CAN'T HELP MYSELF!  I'm addicted to Pion's "Summer Falls into Autumn" papers!!  I think this is the most amount of fall cards I have ever made.  4!  😀  I wish I could say it was more as I love the fall colors and time of year but it goes by so stinkin' fast!  

On Pion's "tags" sheet there are 4 patterned circles so I used each one for this card.  I also added a butterfly from the borders sheet and some Scrapiniec's "Grapevine - Set of Grapes" between layers.  

I've used some flowers from my stash because some of these colors aren't in the store however, I have used many flowers that are available such as the chrysanthemum, magnolia, carnation and cherry blossom.  I die cut a bunch of leaves from Joy's "Autumn Leaves" die, WHICH IS ON SALE, and put them everywhere!  I even used Fantasy's "Small Branches" die and I can see using that one many more times to come.  It's not very visible but I used some "Lace Henrietta" at the bottom but tea dyed it as I didn't want it to be stark white.  I think I'll do that to a few more pieces of lace.  It works very well!

This stamp from Whimsy called "Penguin Pumpkin Patch" is sooooooo stinkin' cute OH MY! 😮  I colored them using my Copics and listed the combo's below.  I see this specific one is out of stock but there are many others and if you're looking for this one still just ask Tracy as she will try her best to get it in for you.

I made a little chocolate box using my Silhouette and paired it up to Fresh Picked Flowers" from LDRS.  This month the girls are showcasing FLOWERS AND HEARTS so PERFECT! This is right up my ally!  hee hee!

I used papers Echo Park's "Yours Truly" collection including some of the journaling cards and tabs that came with them. I added some Wild Orchid flowers and pressed out a Tim Holtz heart die, distressed the edges and added the "LUV" sentiment.  The "forever" ribbon is just some from my stash that I've had FOREVER and happy to finally be able to use it.  Wait...Oh!  No pun intended.  ha ha ha ha!!

Little Darlings - Hearts & Flowers

Today I'm showing you a card using an image from Little Darlings Rubber Stamps.  Why?  BECAUSE THEY ASKED ME TO BE A GUEST FOR JAN and FEB!!!  Doing the happy dance....da da daaa, da da!  

  Did you know LD now carries Saturated Canary rubber stamps?  There's quite a collection in stock including this cutie called "Valentine Petals" which comes with 3 super cute sentiments.

So this month Little Darlings Design Team Inspirations, are featuring hearts and flowers.  Right up my alley!

 I cut all 3 hearts using a few different Tim Holtz movers and shapers dies,  covered them with patterned paper and then distressed them.  The red hearts with a white bow were wood buttons from Prima that had a different pattern on them but didn't match so I colored them up using Color box chalk.  The black and white string is also from Tim Holtz.

Oh and of course I colored using Copics and then covered the rest with Wild Orchid Crafts flowers.

Enjoy your weekend!!

Paper:  Glitz "Cashmere Dame"

Merry SC Christmas Simone!

(If you are looking for the Magnolia-licious Highlites blog hop and scavenger hunt click here)

I made this pretty in purple card for my sister and she just loved it!!  Funny thing is we both used the same Saturated Canary image called "Candy Canes".  Check out the one she made for me.  GORGEOUS!  I used some Magnolia papers and the Magnolia "Slender Firs" that I got for my bday this year.  I even added some Martha Stewart Texture to the tips and covered with glitter.

I used this amazing sleigh cut by a new small business called Southern Ridge Trading Company.  I painted it white and then added the glitter and it just sparkles!  The flowers are cut from my Silhouette and the wooden snowflakes are from Studio Calico.  Yup they've been on my last few cards and I'm addicted.  LOL!  Love my good old standby snowflake border die from Tim Holtz. 

I'd like to share my card into the following challenges:

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR VISITING ME!! 

Magnolia Tag Blog Hop and Scavanger Hunt

WELCOME WELCOME!!

Are you enjoying the hop/hunt so far?  It's been awhile since I've been in one and I forgot how much fun they are!!  You were probably brought here from Sharon's blog (didn't she have the sweetest card?) but if you want to start from the beginning and join in you'll have to go back to the Magnolia-licious High-lites blog 

We have 2 challenges going on within this hop.  One is a scavenger hunt and the second is a challenge and there will be $50 prizes to Magnolia-licious store for both!  Worth playing for?  I think so!  We would love to see you play either one, or even better, both of them!   

So we are working with INTERACTIVE TAGS.  I've snuck a tag into the top left corner of my card using a Magnolia Doohickey, as well as the tag I cut from my Silhouette on the bottle of Bailey's. 

My image is Tilda with Ribbon Heart Scarf and I used the new Snowy Forest Doohickey dies and covered them with Twinklets.  I also covered the wooden snowflakes from Studio Calico and covered them with Crackle Accents.  If you click on the picture for a close up I think you can see it better.

Again I used the Snowy Forest die with a sentiment from LOTV for my Bailey's tag.

So your next hop is over to Norma Lee, who's work I am a personal huge fan of!  I'm sure she'll have something incredible just waiting for you.  

THANK YOU FOR VISITING!! 

Stamps: Magnolia "Tilda w/Ribbon Heart Scarf and LOTV sentiment stamp.
Paper: Magnolia "A Christmas Story 2012"
Embellishments: Studio Calico wooden snowflakes, misc lace and ribbon, wooden reindeer from Wild Orchid Crafts, bag for tag, Crackle Accents and Twinklets.

Magnolia-licious Pink Christmas Challenge

I LOVED THIS CHALLENGE!  

Or should I say I loved how my card turned out?  LOL!  It took me about 4 hours to color this thing.  I KNOW!!  I'm soooo slow!  Sometimes I think the most time consuming part is actually picking your colors out but it was fun!! I thought these 2 images were so cute together.  Looks like the reindeer was a little escapee and Tilda went to grab him to take him back in.   Very much like my indoor cat.  LOL!   

I used "Tilda w/Little Rudolf" from the Christmas Story 2012 collection and paired it up with "Welcome to a Sweet Christmas" from the Sweet Christmas 2011 collection.  I was happy to color it up as I got it last year and never had a chance to until now.  I also used the new "Slender Firs" doohickey dies from Magnolia-licious.  I am just in love with these things!  They go well with the "Snowy Forest", which you'll see in my next project soon.  hee hee

Again I got to provide the inspiration picture for this challenge.  Funny thing about that!  I picked it in September thinking that some of the new Christmas papers coming out would have pink in them.  NOTHING!!  I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT!  But I finally found some digi papers from Bearly Mine Designs and used "Christmas Delight".  Very pretty!!

You should see all the PINK at the Magnolia-licious challenge blog.  EYE CANDY FOR SURE!!  Pop on over and take a peek and give the girls a little luv if you have time.  Again Diana will be giving away:

Also, you should see all the colored images at Magnolia-licious store.  Makes a big difference on seeing how an image might look after it's colored or maybe help in giving you and idea on how to color something if you're stuck.  

I'd like to enter my card into the following challenges:

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Welcome to another challenge at Magnolia-licious and this week we'd like to see your Happy Halloween cards!!  I chose to get Tilda dressed up as an orange ladybug.  I even looked up pics on the internet to make sure some ladybugs were orange and YAY I found lots.  LOL!!  Ok so maybe she was already "Ladybug Tilda" but it still makes a good costume.  She's available in Diana's shop but only as a mini right now.

A friend of  mine gave me those ghosts - aren't they CUTE?!  Thanks friend!! 

Here is this week's photo inspiration.  I love this picture!!  If you get a chance, you'll have to check out the other Halloween inspiration that my teamies have come up with at the Magnolia-licious challenge blog.

And Diana will randomly draw a winner for a special sur-prize!!

I think this week I'm going to enter my card into the following challenges:

Thanks for stopping by this week and hope to see your card in the next few weeks!!  Hugs!

MDUC #130

Use Your National Flag

This week at MDUC we're using our national flag!  At first I thought this was gonna be boring because of course, I only have 2 colors to play with.  WRONG!  Also, not to mention it's right before Valentine's so guess what?!!  A 2-fer-1!!  hee hee! :)

So instead of a card I thought I'd play with a Valentine's project.  I'm thinking there may be more of these coming but when I do that I end up eating the leftover chocolates.  That's baaaad!!  But yummy.  LOL!!

Aren't the ribbons cute?  I used the tutorial from Really Reasonable Ribbon's Ramblings but the only thing I did different was I added a little bit of hairspray to them.  hee hee  

I'm so excited about my coloring on this image.  I watched Make It Crafty's tutorial on folds and also took tips from the Magnolia Ink "Sweet Christmas Dreams|" magazine.  I did make a few mistakes but being that it was my first time I was pretty happy with the fact that I colored a useable image.  LOL!!

 You should see some of the other cards the ladies at MDUC made.  I am sooo glad my colors weren't what some of theirs were.  Talk about challenging but they did really well!

I'm going to enter into the Magnolia-licious Highlites valentine inspired contest for a chance to win 2 images from the new Sweet Crazy Love collection.  You still have 10 days to enter this one if you'd like a chance too. 

ENJOY YOUR WEEKEND!

TPS Lil Haunts Review

This image is Lil Haunts Witch Lylah and she's even on sale right now!!  Be sure to grab up your favorites as these are available for a limited time only. 

I got this idea from Splitcoast Stampers but didn't actually use the tutorial because I was at a crop and went by memory so you should be able to find the tutorial there.

Halloween!!! Whipper Snapper

I made this card this weekend and didn't get time to post. I don't normally post during the week and hubby is waiting to watch tv so this will be quick! The stamp is from Whipper Snapper fall line (if you really want to know what it's called email me later). The pics below show how the Spica Glitter pens worked. I did a lot of glitter on the card. It's a fun one!!!

Booooooooooootiful!!! hee hee

Be Mine

I'm not sure what stamp this is but my friend Sheri sent it to me so I thought I'd make a man Valentine's for my hubby. It's a cute stamp. Oh and in the meatime I thought I'd use Mojo Monday's sketch.
I added this close up pic so you can see the embossed swirls on the red paper behind the heart and the 3d'ed beaver image that doesn't show very well on the above pic. Darn. And I even have hearts embossed on the white paper behind the beaver but hard to see. Tricky one!

Halloween Pail

Simone and I spent Sat. night making these. (View hers) At one point we were laughing so hard about overdoing it but decided since we were past that, we would add more bling! LOL! They were fun.

Witchybella

Annnnnd another witchybella card! This one took me f-o-r-e-v-a-h!! I used silver embroidery thread to make the web that she and her pets are hanging in. It was fun but phew!! - Lots of work! I cut the front card with my nestabilities straight through and put bg paper on the inside to show through. I'm going to try and get it on Bellaholics homepage site for the month of October. If I have to be home this week I will make myself productive! Wish me luck!! Or vote for me!! :)

Witchybella

It's been tooooooo long since I made a bella card. I forgot how much fun they are! Coloring is with Copics, I used my scallop nestabilities (but no nesting this time), my Inkssentials pen and my Glaze pen.

Hey Ghoulfriend - SU Stamps

My first halloween card of the year! I used this sketch but it's too small to read and now I can't give credit to the sketch maker. Sorry!! I go around to all the blogs I visit and download the sketch for later. Only problem is you can't take notes on where you got it from. Hopefully some of you will recognize it. I used my new square scallop nestabilities and cut felt for the black square. It's so cool. Once again IRL it looks way better. Hmmf. I put Stickles in the center of the flower and orange dot Stickles all the way around each white frame. I also used Stickles on the bottom of the witch's dress. Remember The Wizard of Oz? Ya, green witch. Still creeps me out. Too funny!
