Magnolia Vs. Stampavie Challenge 8

I want to thank everyone who sent me congratulations and best wishes for my "Chick Status" (if you haven't seen....my exciting news post is below)! It means a lot to me to know everyone cares! I am very excited to create for Courtney! Thanks again Courtney for asking me to join the peeps!

This card goes along perfect with today's post! Over at the Magnolia Vs. Stampavie Challenge blog this week's challenge was a sketch challenge....but there is a small twist! You need to make your card a Thank You card....so this is for each and everyone of you out there who support me, inspire me, and challenge me! You are all treasured friends!

Here is this week's sketch: I decided to use my Tilda with rose that I got from my Secret Angel in the Magnolialicious Yahoo Group! Thanks again Lisa! I absolutely LOVE her! I colored Tilda with my Copics, added stickles to her wings and lace on her dress. Then I used some pink perfect pearls and painted on top of the rose for some extra shimmer! It gave the flower a beautiful irridescent effect! Papers used were Dovecraft from the Hint of Pink pack, DCWV, SU cardstock, and some clearance papers that I got from Michaels.

Flowers are primas. Lace, beads, and charms are from my stash. Punches used were the negative from my Heart Corner Punch (from Wish On A Scrap), and my Martha floral boarder punch which I made into cute corners. I got this idea from one of my idols, Suzanne! You can see her awesome idea here!She is so creative, and her work is absolutely amazing! If you haven't gone over to her blog, click on over there and take a look. You won't be disappointed!

And if you take a close look at my charm, you will see it says Thanks! I thought that was a perfect touch!

Then of course we have the finished inside! I think this is my favorites inside done so far!

Hope everyone is having a good week! Tomorrow I am off to go and craft with my Grandma! We are going to take a card class together! I am very excited, and it's so special to be spending time with my Gram doing what we both love to do! (She's a very talented card maker!!!) I can't wait to come back and show you what we make! It's going to be a real treat, I promise!!!! I saw a product of the class and it's amazing!!!!

Magnolialicious January Sketch

This month over at Magnolialicious the Miss. Suzy Haglighi made a very fun sketch to play a long with! I loved all of the circles on it! That way I could incorporate lots of different patterned papers into my card! My papers are DCWV, Creative Memories, and SU cardstock.

I decided to use Standing Fall Tilda that I purchase from Loreen at Wish On A Scrap. I also created this card for the Wish Challenge that is going on RIGHT NOW, you can find the details HERE! The Challenge is running until January 11th, so go and check it out!

Tilda was colored using my Copic markers, and I used stickles on her wings! Ribbons were in my stash along with the charm, spacer, and heart brad. Flowers are Petaloo which I also got from Wish On A Scrap's November kit....yes, I am still using elements from the November kit! That is seriously how much stuff you get in the kits! It's amazing the stuff you get for your $25!
And of course we have the inside of the card! I used my martha floral lace punch, and my Fiskars treading water punch!

I really like this card....must be because I used mainly pink and brown....of course we all know that is my favorite color combo!

Hope everyone has a WONDERFUL week!
