Cupid Tilda Sculpture Valentine’s Card

Hello everyone! To share with you today is the card I created for Magnolia Forever challenge. The theme for February challenge is

Love/ Valentine        

I wanted to create a Valentine’s card in a different style. This card was inspired by fine arts cupids and angels sculptures I had seen in the museum. So I created this card in vintage monochrome look except the red heart to make red color pop out. I used die from Magnolia Vintage box 4 and Magnolia paper to cut the card base. The heart tags die cuts are from Doohickey box 5. I decorated the card with ivory ribbon, rhinestone button and antique gold charm to match with the vintage style.

This cute cupid is Magnolia “You Are My Valentine Tilda” stamp from Lovely Duo 2015 collection. I colored the image with distress ink as usual but it was quite challenging for this one as I wanted this Tilda to look like cupid sculpture. And I was satisfied with the result. I used only 4 colors for this image.

Cupid Tilda – Pumice Stone, Black Soot

Heart – Barn Door, Black Soot

Background – Gathered Twigs

The sentiment is also the stamp provided in this Tilda stamp kit. The frame die cuts for both image and sentiment are from Spellbinder Majestic Label Eight dies. The cupid charm is from Magnolia webshop.

I decorated the card with white and gray paper flowers to match with monochrome card. I also added red Gypsophila heart to match with red heart in the image.

I would like to enter this card to these challenges.

Pastel Warm Winter Wishes

Hello crafty friends!

First of all, I would like to introduce my Etsy shop selling my handmade cards that I just opened early this month. You can find my shop by clicking the top badge on the right hand side of blog page or following the link here.

Today I have a card I made for The Paper Nest Dolls to share with you. I used the new image called “Avery with Hot Chocolate” which was just released in Dec last year.

I wanted to create a different winter card with some pastel colors. So I used pink and mint green color combo. The image was colored with distress ink in the same color combo.

To keep this card (quite) clean and simple, I decorated the card with ribbon, die cuts, and enamel dots. The poinsettia was made from die cuts from Magnolia Vintage box 4 and fern die cuts were from Doohickey volume 7. The sentiment is the stamp from LDRS.

I would like to enter this card to these challenges.

Snowflake Pop Up Card

Hello! Today I have a card I created for reminder post at two Magnolia challenges. The first one is Magnolia Forever with the theme

Christmas/ Winter

And Marvelous Magnolia challenge with the theme

Anything Goes

For this card, I only used die cuts on the front cover. The poinsettia was made from die cuts from Magnolia Vintage box 4. The snowflake background and sentiment die cuts are from Poppy Stamps. I used some glitters on die cuts to add sparkling touch to the card.

When opening the card, Tilda and snowflakes will pop up. Both Tilda and snowflakes were attached to the pop up part. I made the spiral pop up by following the tutorial here. I stamped the background paper with snowflake stamps from Magnolia Vintage Box 4 and “X-Mas Snowflakes” stamp from A Lovely Christmas 2015 collection.

This cute Tilda is from “Tilda with Sock Puffs” stamp from Aspen Holidays 2016 collection. I used masking stamp technique to make her sitting on “the Christmas Lace Bench” stamp from the same collection. The stamped image was colored with distress ink. I also attached tiny snowflake over her palm using acetate stripe.

The sentiment is from LOTV stamp which I heat embossed with white embossing powder.

Fall Heart Shaped Easel Card

Hello crafty friends! Today I would like to share a card I made for Magnolia Forever November challenge. The theme is

Girly

I wanted to create something sweet for this challenge. I had ordered a few Magnolia boxes sometimes ago but didn’t have a chance to use them. So I combined them together to make this card. The heart shaped card base is from Magnolia Vintage box 5. I decorated this card with many die cuts. The big tree and apples die cuts are from the latest Doohickey volume 16. The bushes with hearts die cuts are from last year Doohickey volume 9. The fence die cut is from Pop Up box 2.

This Tilda is Magnolia “Market Tilda with Fruits” stamp from From Farm to Market 2017 collection. There are also some fruit stamps in this kit. I mask-stamped some apples in the box that Tilda is carrying to match with the die cuts. The stamped image was colored with distress ink.

I also decorated the card with paper flowers, some berries, ribbon, and charm.

As this is an easel card, the front cover can stand.

Inside the card, there are small heart die cuts and a sentiment stamped from Lawn Fawn clear stamp set.

I would like to enter this card to these challenges.

Autumn Bird

Hello everyone! Today I have a card created for Addicted to Stamps challenge to share with you. The theme is

Anything Goes with Flowers

I decided to make an autumn themed card with flowers decoration. I used red and brown as the main colors since they represented fall season. The patterned paper is from Magnolia. I added brick pattern with embossing paste to match with the image.

I used the new Magnolia stamp which I still don’t know the name yet. I masked this Tilda and little bird with the old Magnolia “Romantic Window” stamp from You Are So Special 2011 collection. The coloring medium is distress ink.

I decorated the card with some feathers, and red & brown paper flowers. The birdhouse die cut is from Spellbinders.

I added the fence die cut with trellis and red paper roses to match with the image. These die cuts are from Doohickey.

This bird die cut is from Doohickey volume 7. I cut this cute bird on blue patterned paper to match with the image. The feather die cuts are from Magnolia Vintage Box 5.

Aladdin Tilda & Magic Carpet

Hello everyone! I’m back again with my latest card I made for Marvelous Magnolia reminder post. The theme for this month is very easy which is

Anything Goes

I really love Magnolia Aladdin themed stamps from “I Believe in Unicorns” collection. They are my inspirations to create this card. The card base is from Magnolia Vintage Box 2 using purple patterned paper. Then I added mini gold tassels to each corner to make it look like the magic carpet.

The Aladdin themed images are from Magnolia “Aladdin Tilda with Lamp” and “Arabic Night” stamps  from I Believe in Unicorns 2017 collection. I colored the image with distress ink. I cut the frame in the middle of the card base with Spellbinders Labels Twenty-Four die so the Arabic castle can be seen as Tilda is riding on the magic carpet.

I also added the lamp image that came with Tilda stamp set. I attached a die cut from Doohickey volume 13 to the tip of the lamp to make it look like smoke that comes out of the lamp. The gold glitter  ornament is the die cut from Doohickey volume 12.

I decorated the card with banner and stars die cuts from Doohickey volume 9, and Marianne Designs Stars Semi Circle. The sentiment is the stamp from Whiff of Joy 1001 Night clear stamp set.

I also added movement mechanism on Tilda. I made a diy action wobble as I had seen from the tutorial here and attached to the back of Tilda to make her shake as she was riding on the carpet. You can see Tilda move in the video below.

Tilda in the Flower Garden

Hello everyone! To share with you today is the card I made for Addicted to Stamps challenge. The theme is

Flowers and Butterflies

To match the challenge theme, I have created a sweet and colorful flower garden scene card. I used simple layout with few die cuts and embellishments because I wanted the flower garden to be the first thing people would notice from this card.

 I used Magnolia “Tilda with Hawaii Flower” stamp from Butterfly Dreams 2011 collection and “Spring Daisy” stamp from Chasing Butterflies 2009 collection. I stamped the flower scene several times behind Tilda using stamp masking technique. The stamped image was colored with distress ink.

To create flower garden scene, I decorated the card with flower die cut from Doohickey volume 4 and small butterfly die cuts from Magnolia Vintage box 1.

Happy Springtime

Hello everyone! Today is the first day of the month again so it’s time for the new challenge at Magnolia Forever. The theme for this month is

Ribbon & Lace

The weather is getting hot here in Thailand so I guess springtime has come. I have created a spring-themed card inspired by a new kitten that I recently adopted. I always take her to the field outside my house and she really loves playing there. The card base is a die cut from Magnolia Vintage Box 1 and patterned paper is from Pion Design.

The image is from “Tilda with Spring Flowers” and “Kitty Kit” stamps from Magnolia Spring Fever 2016 collection. I used mirror stamping technique to make the kitten facing Tilda. I colored the image with distress ink as usual.

The sentiment “Happy Day” is Magnolia shadow stamp which I embossed with pastel orange embossing powder.

I also decorated the card with Doohickey Lovely Fence die cut. Adding tiny paper flowers makes this die cut even more cute.

This is my inspiration. I call her “Little Monkey” because she is very naughty.
