Ballerina Dance Squad

Hi there happy Sunday to all of you.

I would like to share with you today the card I made for my mothers 70 birthday. It’s the first time I made a pop up card. wow! all those years of crafting and never came around it. I picked for the card 3 coordinating Tildas. The girls came out in different collections. You can see some slight changes in how Pauline drew the shape of the faces. I really enjoy seeing how the images evolve and change. Lately the eyes became much bigger, so we can add those tiny white dots. cute! However I really do like her VERY old images a lot too.

Dies: Doo Hickey Castle, Spellbinder oval, Doo Hickey leaf, Doo Hickey Tag, Doo Hickey heart swirl, Go Kreate for shape
Embellishments: flowers, tiny pocket, Stickles, heart doily, gauze, lace
Coloring: Copic Markers

Birthday Baggie

Hi there…

thank you for your visit. Sorry for my spare postings on my blogs.
If you are a subscriber of Sir Stampalot’s newsletters, which I highly recommend, you might know already that Magnolia ceases  Magnolia Ink as we know it. There will be issues published for special occasions like for Christmas, but for now the we highly anticipate some new adventures Magnolia is working on behind the regular stamp and die releases. I don’t want to spell the beans just yet, but the Design Team is working hard to make this something very worth for you to consider to purchase and be inspired by it.
I am TRYING to work on my given assignments which will be considered around Christmas, but the work as the be finished in just 3 weeks! OMG!!! I do have like 9 water colored images sitting on my craft desk but I am so blocked, I can’t even think of anything to do with them, the deadline isn't helping me either. I am sure some of you know the feeling.

Anyhow…
