Tilda under Mistletoe

Good Morning and welcome to the final round of the Magnolia-licious Christmas All Year Long Blog Hop.


I finally have my computer up and running and have added a few new Magnolia stamps to my collection so I was thrilled to be able to participate this month!

If you've arrived here from Jessica Hammond's Blog, you're in the right spot and from here you will head right over to see a wonderful creation by Kathy Curry.

My entry for today uses Tilda under the Mistletoe - one of my very favorite Christmas images.


I found some beautiful new Christmas papers from Echo Park and paired it with some Crimson and Cream Bazzill card stock. I haven't made an easel card in a very long time so this was the perfect chance to go and pull out the directions for this style of card.


And here's a little side view:


Here is a list of the Copic colors used on my card:
E00, E0000, E25, E31, E33, E35, C1, R20, R35, YG93, YG95, B0000.

Thanks so very much for hopping by and I hope you have a wonderful Turkey Day!

Magnolia-licious March Christmas Blog Hop


Good Morning and Welcome to my stop on the Magnolia-licious Christmas All Year Long Blog Hop! I'm so excited to be participating this month! This hop will happen the 25th of every month and I'm sure you'll find lots of gorgeous samples as you make your way from blog to blog!

If you've arrived here from Jessica's Blog you're in the right place. If you would like to start at the beginning of our hop, please begin with Julie Glasgow.

For my card today I'm using Tilda with the Violin. This was a wonderful surprise gift from Diana at the Magnolia-licious store when I placed my last order. I taught vocal music for 14 years with the Millard Public Schools in Omaha Nebraska, and so this little musician was a special treat!

I've chosen some Basic Grey paper from the "Wassail" collection for my card this month. (I had just enough scraps left from previous projects!) The card stock is Stampin' Up Always Artichoke and it was a perfect match to the Basic Grey patterned paper.

I've added a little Doodlebug Sugar coated glitter to her wings for a little Christmas sparkle!


The sentiment is from the SU set named "Scenic Season". All the paper is sponged with a little SU Creamy Caramel ink.


Tilda is colored with Copic markers.

You're next stop on the February Christmas hop is Kathy!
Enjoy your visits and thanks so much for hopping by,
Julie

Magnolia-licious February Christmas Blog Hop


Good Morning and Welcome to the Magnolia-licious Yahoo Group Christmas All Year Long Blog Hop! I'm so excited to be participating this month! This hop will happen the 25th of every month.
If you've arrived here from Jenn's blog, you're in the right place. If you would like to start at the beginning of our hop, please begin with Julie Glasgow.
For my card today I'm using Santa's Helper and the Old Bench. I purchased these beautiful stamps from the Magnolia-licious store where you'll find great service and great prices.

The card stock, patterned paper and ribbon are from my Stampin' Up stash. I had saved a package of my favorite retired Parisian Breeze designer paper and used it for my Christmas card this month. I found some Dew Drops and added those to the center of the flowers and around my little Edwin. I've distressed the edges of the dark blue card stock and then went to my sewing machine and stitched around the chocolate paper. The images are colored with Copic markers.

You're next stop on the February Christmas hop is Kathy!
Enjoy your visits and thanks so much for hopping by,
