Dreaming of a white Christmas...

Happy Friday, friends! I hope you all had a great week. Mine was a regular 'ole week.

I'm getting excited about my trip to Puerto Rico with Angie. Her and I have so much fun together, I cannot wait!!!!!!!!!

Time for another challenge over at Just Magnolia and hAngler. I made this card a few months ago. I showed it to Angie and she really wanted it so I sent her an early Christmas card. :) I used my DI's and really added a lot of layers. It's probably one of the darkest cards I've ever made and the first time I tried, too. Any who... I hope you will join us at Just Magnolia and hAngler's Christmas Challenge this week!

Have a great weekend!

Hello everyone! Happy Friday.

I have an altered notebook to share with you. This week over at Fussy and Fancy our challenge is to use a black border and bling! It's not my week over at Just Magnolia but I had already planned out my project for this week, our theme is Pink for Breast Cancer Awarness. I found this notepad in the dollar section at Target. It was too cute to resist. It's a smaller notebook, the stamp I used is Mini #341 Tilda blowing hearts from Diana Crick's amazing store, Magnolia-licious!

I also have some wonderful news to share, if you haven't already heard. On November 10th I'll be heading out to Puerto Rico, with my good, sweet, dearest oober talented friend, Angie Hunt! I will be assisting her while she teaches! I'm so super excited!! I've already gotten a few emails about it, from some of my blog readers! You can find out more information HERE! 

Have a wonderful weekend!

I decided to decorate this tin I've had for quite sometime now. I thought it would be perfect for this hop! Since it's all about Dr. Edwin I decided to put some necessities for when you're  sick. I put a mini pack of tissues, some Day and Night Quil, a Vicks nose inhaler and some throat drops. The question is.. Can I give this up when someone's sick!?!?!? LOL!!!

If you didn't come from Sharon's Blog you need to start at the beginning at the

Hello my lovely crafty friends! I have a new card to share today, which is for Just Magnolia and hAngler.

I used my Dr. Edwin Stamp, sold exclusivly at the one and only, fabulous, Magnolia-licious! I just love him! I love the Tim Holtz clock face and I printed out that sentiment. Doesn't it go perfectly!!!

Today I'm finally getting my Magnolia Coloring Class 2 up and going over at Color me Creative! YAY! It's focused on using light sources and showing where to put those shadows. I hope you enjoy it, if you're interested in taking it. I also have a super cute blinking I made for it, too.

Happy Friday!! Today I have a Spooky Bookmark to show you. I just love making these corner bookmarks. The Scor-Buddy makes it so easy to make too! Today at Fussy and Fancy we have a Halloween theme. I just love this little Edwin. He's so cute! I'm a big goof ball, I'll admit it... I didn't realize this was a moon with bats background. I thought it was just a scene.. Otherwise I would have added shine to it. Oh well!

Normally I would have added Just Magnolia and hAngler to my post but we have all agreed to have teams letting all the members be on a bi-weekly schedule. So I'll be back with a challenge for next week.

Fall Piece of Cake!

Hello my friends! I hope you all are having a great week. Today I have a project that is seriously so much fun and easy to make! The first time I made it was for the Magnolia Ink Chocolate edition Magazine, which was the most recent Magnolia Ink released. I don't have step by step photos but I am sharing a written step by step with you today!

• I use the printable cake piece template I found online, you can find it on Splitcoast and I fold it.
• Add Brown Flowersoft to the areas shown.
• Then take my liquid pearls an add it to the top and in the center for frosting. I use my finger to smooth it out and then drizzle the liquid pearls on the top and I make drips onto the FlowerSoft.
• Find an image, if you like I used Little Darlings Autumn Friends and attach it along with your favorite Wild Ochid Crafts Flowers ribbons and goodies.

Today, there's a new theme at Cute Card Thursday and it's 'A Piece of Cake' :) I hope you join us!
