Ribbon Girls Magnolia Challenge

Hiya again!

Im so late again...

I should of posted this this morning...

There's a new challenge over at The Ribbon Girls Magnolia Challenge and this week anything goes.

I was asked to do a baby boy card for a lovely lady and as I dont have many baby stamps I thought Baby Edwin was perfect.

Also from the Ribbon Girls shop I used Blue Rolled Roses, Tulle,Cheesecloth, Blue Velvet Lace and Jacqueline Ivory Vintage Lace.

Dies used are Heart Banner from La La Land, Magnolia Star Tagand Go Kreate.

Thanks for looking

Pink and Lime at MDUC

Hiya

OMG! I nearly forgot about my post tonight for MDUC.

This week we want to see Pink and Lime on your cards:D

Talking about this week ....Where has it gone???? I cant believe I havent blogged all week. But I think you know by now what I'm doing when Im MIA!!! :D

As some of the group weren't too keen on this colour combo , I was really pleased how mine turned out. I used one of the Mini world Magnolia Beautiful Tilda and painted with DI's.I bought quite a few mini's when I visited Sweden last October.

She fit perfectly into one of my Air Dry clay frames I made earlier.

Apart from the Lime flower the others I made into rolled roses.

Papers are a mixture of Prima and Magnolia.

Magnolia Doo Bee Pops

Hiya

Im just popping in quickly to tell you about Doo Bee Pops!

Last week the Magnolia DT were sent a few of the sheets each below called Doo Bee Pops. I think we were all curious into what they were, I think we were all googling them to find out more!!!hee hee

Anyway this is what arrived below and they are like a honeycomb paper.

Ive just had a play with mine and made a few things butterflies etc and this is what i came up with along with a bit of Frantage too.

As I have to use a heatgun for Frantage I thought the paper may burn, but no it worked perfectly, so I edged the heart with aged white EP

I'll be back soon with the card.(Its an ongoing process)

See ya

Love

Ribbon Girls Challenge and a little bit of Frantage

Hiya

Hope your comfy!.... Ive got a little carried away with my pics today.

Its also a new challenge at The Ribbon Girls which is

Love You or Valentineand there's a £10 voucher up for grabs and a LOTV stamp.

Ive finally succumbed to 'Frantage'

When I first started with card making one of the first tools I bought was a heat gun and well I just embossed everything gold insight. Hubby said I had the 'Midas Touch!' ha ha.... back then, as I always had to emboss the edges of ALL my cards

Frantage is by Stampendous whom Im sure you've heard of already and Ive been lucky to do a few workshops with 'Fran' when she has visited the UK.

At Christmas I received a couple of the Frantage products and its only now Ive dug out my heat gun again to play, although I did use the Mica flakes in shaker cards at Christmas too.

If you want to more what Im talking about then HERES a few of her videos on Youtube.

Once I had watched them I couldnt wait to have a play.

This is what I made using Bonny Tilda. I wanted to create an aged Shabby chic look with lots of texture.

As always I painted with Distress Re-Inkers and then coated with Distress Rock Candy

I then edged with a mix of Frantage products plus some of my EB from my stash and I mixed in alot of white.

Jill at TheStampman offers the full range of colours and if you are stuck which to choose the kits are great and if you are like me the pink and the blue are great for the Vintage Shabby look. Ive listed below in Inklinkz so it should take you there direct.

I also Frantaged all my die cut pieces to add that extra Vintage Texture.

Jill also told me there's new colours due out soon.
