Winter Lala

Today is the first time I got to ink my Winter Lala stamp from La-La Land Crafts. She is so ADORABLE!!! This stamp is not necessarily a Christmas stamp, it can be used for any winter occasion - Birthday, Thank You, Thinking of You or Just Because cards.

This card measures 6" x 6".




BoBunny Designer paper, LOVE it!!! Fiskars Border punch. Ribbon and button are from my stash. EK Success leaf punch.

Winter Lala was colored with Copic Markers. You can buy this and other La-La Land Crafts stamps in our online store, here is the link.

There is still time to participate in this week's challenge on La-La Land Crafts Blog. The challenge is PINK & GREEN, how fun is that??!! Click here for details and to see the samples made by LLLC Design Team and the Guest Designers.

Hugs!!

Happy New Year, Tilda!!

I used "party Tilda" stamp for this card. First I wanted to create a black and white card, but Tilda just wanted to have more fun and asked to be more colorful :-) . I've used shiny metallic cardstock and paper from Bazzill and The Paper Company. Tilda was stamped in Memento Black Tuxedo ink on the Nestabilites oval and colored with Copic Markers. I put Gold Stickles on the stars and Icicle Stickles on Tilda's shoes, hair ties, wings and added just a touch of Stickles to her dress and her hair. The greeting was stamped on the tag that was cut out with Nestabilites. I love the ribbon behind the ovals!! It might be hard to see on the photos, it has a lot of sparkle to it, and because it is net-like it does not overpower the card. The greeting on the front of the card and the "ticket" inside of the card are from Hero Arts.

Oh, how I was straggling with this card... Two days ago I stayed up until 2:30 in the morning trying to make it work.. and still didn't like what I made. I was ready to give up on making a card with this Tilda on skis when my friend Deirdre told me that I just "had to" make a card with her because she is so CUTE ("to me"). So today, after teaching a class I decided to give it another try. I changed the layout and the colors, and it worked!! I tried to achieve the feel of the crisp winter morning.. what do you think?

This card started as a very simple one, but it wouldn't let me go until I added all the details it was asking for..

The card measures 6" x 6".

Winter Night Tilda

If you haven't entered into my Blog Candy yet, you have until Monday, December 15th. For details and to enter please click here.

I had so much fun making this card. This Tilda is one of my favorite ones from the Winter and Christmas Collection, and I finally got chance to play with her!! I wanted to create a look of a winter night.

This card measures 6" x 6".



I used Basic Grey paper on this card and used both sides of the paper. The Winter Night background stamp was stamped on the back side of the printed paper and then colored with Copic Markers. I then sponged blue ink around the edges. I also sponged blue ink on all of the other layers of the card. Tilda was stamped, colored with Copic Markers and then cut out. The greeting is from the set by Hero Arts.

If you can believe that, this card looks even better in real life ;-) .

All the supplies used on this card including both of Magnolia stamps (Tilda and Winter Night background) are available at Cranberry Hill Mercantile. You can even make a purchase over the phone if you do not live in the area, just call 408-736-9151.

This will be one of the cards for my upcoming "Winter Tilda" card class. This class is scheduled for:
