Happy Easter ~ Magnolia-licious Mini Monday!

March 4, 2013 13 Comments

Happy MINI MONDAY!

It’s time for another Mini Monday at the Magnolia-licious and Wee Stamps Challenge Blog

Each Monday several DT Members will be showcasing projects using

Magnolia MINI stamps from the Magnolia-licious Store.

This cutie is called

Running Tilda

from the Butterfly Dreams Collection.

She’s available in MINI or Regular.

I also used the

MAGNOLIA MINI SPRING TREE

in the background.

The Spring Tree and Running Tilda were heat embossed

using white ink and clear embossing powder, colored with Copics and then I added some Diamond Stickles to the flowers.

Thought they would show up well on this fun Craft and White Mat Stack paper by DCWV.

The sheets are 4.5 x 6.5 and are pre-cut in the shape of this card!

I also stamped Tilda with black ink on white cardstock, colored her with Copics,

cut her out and added her to the circle using pop dots ~ so she would really “pop”! 🙂

I hope you can stop over at the Magnolia-licious and Wee Stamps Challenge Blog

to see the other DT projects using the adorable

MAGNOLIA MINIS

Thanks for stopping by today ~ hope you have a great week!

Happy Wednesday … WEE WEDNESDAY that is!

I’m super excited because it’s our very first Wee Wednesday

at the Magnolia-licious and Wee Stamps Challenge Blog,

and I have to say ~ I LOVE, love, love coloring Sylvia Zet’s adorable Wee images.

NOW available at the Magnolia-licious Store!!

Each one is cuter than the last!

And, there is certainly one to be found for ANY occasion you may have a need for.

As I mentioned, this is the first of weekly projects we will be featuring EVERY Wednesday.

Each week three designers will be showcasing some awesome inspiration using Wee Stamps for you.

For my first Wee Stamp project, I’ve used this adorable

Birthday Baby Girl image.

I thought it would be fun to make some matching round gift boxes …

The paper is from Dooblebug Designs – I do love the red and pink color combo!

I hope you can stop over at the Magnolia-licious and Wee Stamps Challenge Blog

you won’t be disappointed, I promise. 🙂
