TOMIC Challenge 15 - Chocolate & Cream

It's time for another challenge on over at TOMIC

(The Official Magnolia Inspiration Challenge Blog)

Welcome to TOMIC Challenge # 15

Chocolate (brown & cream)

Now who doesn't like chocolate, I just wish I didn't like it sooooooooooo much. I hope you will join us this week, you could be the winner of the surprise package of Magnolia goodies

Magnolia Stamps

Tilda with Cowberry Muffin - So Heavenly Travel & School Collection 2008

Chocolate Box - Tin Boxes - A little Yummy for your Tummy Collection 2009

Magnolia Doo Hickey Dies - Rose Leaf

I used my Cricut Die Cutting Machine and the new Sweet Tooth Boxes cartridge. You can fill it with cakes or leave it out insert and fill it with chocolates or some other delicious goodies.

The double choc chip muffins tasted better than they look.

I added the recipe inside the lid.

I have coloured it with Copics, airbrushed the background, hoping to give it an aged/much loved look about it. I added some lace, beautiful flowers & bows, added the adorable Tilda panel, making a wonderful gift box to fill with delish goodies for someone special. I have not been a big lover of brown before, I don't know why because now I love it and you should be seeing a lot more of it in the future.

I hope you will stop by to visit the other Magnolia Design Team, they have made some amazing creations with lots of inspiration and it gives you a chance to play with your adorable Maggies.

Happy Spring - Beautiful Tilda

Hello Everyone,

I hope you have all had a wonderful week. The beginning of September started off beautifully here in Australia with some magical spring weather and it just happens to be my favourite time of the year.  In honour of spring I've used some pretty spring coloured papers and this fabulously magical Magnolia image - Beautiful Tilda, from the Butterfly Dreams Collection. She has been sitting patiently waiting to be inked.

I haven't made an Easel Card for a while, so I thought it was time and I found some gorgeos new papers from Kaisercraft from their Miss Nelly Collection and just adore them. I don't always remember to write down my Copic Colours or include a list of all my crafting goodies, but if you want any info, please don't hesitate to email me.

Have a great weekend, I will be back on Monday with my TOMIC Challenge Creation, I hope you will join me.

Thank you for being my Rainbow

Hello Everyone,

Hope you've all had a wonderful weekend. I've made a quick project this weekend, a tag from the Tim Holtz Alterations collection using some of the my Magnolia stamps from the Sweet Rainbow Collection. You could use this for a bookmark without the bulky flowers but I made it for a friend to send to brighten their day. I love love love the The Rainbow with Clouds stamp and text they always make me smile everytime I use them. The text reads

"Thank you for being my Rainbow on a Cloudy Day".

I have tucked the Magnolia Scallop tag in behind the sentiment & written a little note to my friend.

I've used Copics and lots of sparkly stickles

(The photos came out a little brighter than they are IRL, the winter days are not my favourite for photographing my projects. )

TOMIC Challenge 12 - Magnolia Ink Birthday

Hello Magnolia Lovers,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAGNOLIA INK MAGAZINE

Hope you have had a wonderful weekend. Today is the start of a new challenge over at TOMIC. This week we have a very special celebration, we are celebrating the birthday of Magnolia Ink Magazine. The theme of Challenge 12 - Recycling as Magnolia use recycled paper for the magazine.

There will be a very special prize from Magnolia to celebrate. Hope you will join us & don't forget to stop by the other Design Team members to see all their amazing creations.

I used a breakfast cereal box, the cardboard weight is perfect for my tissue box. I love the finished result and I will definately recyle more often.

Meet Nurse Tilda Magnolia's newest collection - Winner Takes it All

I have also used Magnolia Paper from their Sweet Rainbow Collection

Magnolia Doohickey Cutting Dies, Rose Leaf, Vintage Flowers & Leaves & Heart Swirl

The flowers are from both Magnolia & Wild Orchid Crafts.

For my tissue box I used a tutorial from Splitcoast Stampers here.

My Cricut came in very handy to cut out my tissue box. I find working with imperial fractions a bit tricky, so I converted the fractions to decimal and loaded the dimensions, cutting them with a program called SCAL, making it so much easier.

Thanks for stopping by, have a wonderful week and I look forward to seeing all your fabulous creations this week.
