Hey Cupcake For Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog Inspiration Challenge

Hello Everyone!! It's that time again for another Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog Inspiration Challenge. The challenge is being hosted by the talented Tracy who has chosen this wonderful photo to inspire us all.

I hope it inspires you to play along with us! All you need to do is to use a Magnolia image on your card or project. Your entry will give you the opportunity to be the lucky winner of a Gift Certificate to Magnolia-licious, the best place to shop for Maggies. . . Regular Size and Minis too!!

For my card, I used Ellen Krans Mambi Sheets Design Papers from Me & My Big Ideas. Tilda with Wrapped Heart, from Magnolia-licious, was colored with Alcohol Markers, Prismacolor Pencils and Gamsol. I cut the wrapped heart off and added a cupcake that I cut from the Design Paper.  The frame that she is mounted on was cut using Martha Stewart Eyelet Lace Corner/Border Set. The scallop borders were cut using EK Success Dotted Scallop Slim Edger Punch. The butterflies were cut using Martha Stewart 3 in 1 Classic Butterfly Punch. The plaid ribbon is from Michaels. The iridescent lace is from JoAnns. The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts. The large pearls, which were a gift from my sweet friend Cami, are from Queen & Co. The small pearls on the butterflies are from a kit that I found to decorate a cell phone that I bought at a local dollar store.

Thank you for stopping by my blog and I hope you take a minute to visit the Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog and see all the gorgeous cards and projects that the other Design Team Member have created!! I hope they will inspire you to join in on the fun!!

Hello Little Butterfly For Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog Color Inspiration Challenge

Hello Everyone!! It's that time again for another Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog Color Inspiration Challenge. The color challenge is being hosted by the talented Tracy who has chosen this wonderful photo to inspire us all.

I hope it inspires you to play along with us! All you need to do is to use the colors from the inspiration photo along with a Magnolia image on your card or project. Your entry will give you the opportunity to be the lucky winner of a Gift Certificate to Magnolia-licious, the best place to shop for Maggies. . . Regular Size and Minis too!!

For my card, I used Echo Park Summer Days Digi Design Papers. Hello Little Butterfly Tilda, from Magnolia-licious, was stamped on Cryogen White Card Stock and colored with Alcohol Markers, Prismacolor Pencils and Gamsol. The scalloped border was cut using Tilda's Lace Doohickey. I decided to use it, because it matched the lace on Tilda's dress. The magenta and purple flowers were white flowers from my stash that I colored using water based markers and Glimmer Mist. The other flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts. The little butterflies were made using a Martha Stewart 3 in 1 Classic Butterfly Punch. The pearls on the butterflies are from Recollections. The Thinking Of You is from Hero Arts. The ribbon is from my stash.
