Yo ho ho a pirates life for me

Pirates life

I have to share with you a stepper card that I have made for a special little boy.  I recently read about a little boy who has a brain tumour and a crafter asked if people could make him a card.

I have used the magnolia pirate Edwin and stamps from high hopes to make the card and backing paper. Over on Ribbon girl challenge blog they would like to see buttons.  I have added one to Edwin's sleeve.  I hope that the card makes Dylan smile x

TOMIC Muffin

Today I am sharing a card that I have made using the magnolia muffin.  It makes a great unisex card.  I have joined the guys at TOMIC  they challenge you not to use a character, follow a sketch and emboss.  Pop over and have a look the team have some lovely work to share.  I have embossed the oval and greeting.

The muffin is coloured with Copic pens.  The muffin case is stamped

 with matching paper.  The hearts on the muffin are highlighted with 3d crystal finish.  On the greeting I have added crystals and a black pearl to add some bling.  There are some liquid pearls added to the background of the muffin.

Get Well magnolia

Get Well Magnolia

I am sharing with you today a card and a make.

I have really enjoyed making these.

 Over on Stamp with fun they want to see your

Get well cards or projects. 

 I have made a card and matching tissue hand size box. 

 I thought it would be fun to make a 

dispenser for the handy tissues.

On the Just Magnolia challenge blog they want

 you to use something new.  

The corner dies are new and the magnolia nurse

 stamps are new and I love them.  

Its the first time I have tried to make 

the tissue box and managed to make the 

template quick enough.  I have tried

 to keep the colours neutral.

Simply Magnolia Jacobs Ladder

 Jacobs Ladder

I thought I would share with you a

 Jacobs ladder that I have created.  

The stamp on top of the box is Stampin up.

A Jacobs ladder is a great way of making a mini photo album.

On the inner pages there are accents that are all magnolia stamps.

Over on Simply Magnolia anything goes.  

This Jacobs ladder was made for my 20yr old daughter's birthday. 

She would never forgive me if I ever gave her a bought card, lol. 

 Each page has a different magnolia which I think adds a 

little something to the pages.

 The pics are of special moments and memories, 

that have been her life so far.

 Absolutely love the mini tilda on the last page 

and quess who she is meant to be :) 

I hope that you have enjoyed my post I know its a long one 

but if you have time check out the video below of it working. 

 I have made a few of these and I really think they are lovely.

Thank you for stopping by xxx

Finally!!!

I'm back.

After a short break I forgot my password and couldn't get back into my blog, lol.

Millions of attempts later I finally remembered my password.

Fairy birthday

After being away I have finally found some time to have a quick play before I go away again on Saturday. I am hoping to tap into some WIFI while I am away.

I have made a card and joined the guys over on The-sugar-bowl-challenge, the sketch is a great one to follow from Judy.

I have used one of the new Gorjuss girls for this card. I knew what I wanted to do with stamp as soon as seen it. I have used the magic film to make the dress to add real glitz. The image is coloured with copic pens.

Materials used

Sugar nellie stamp

Papers various of cuts

Stamping fibre.

Hope you like the card and thank you for stopping by.

I love reading your comments and visting your blogs
