TOMIC Challenge 22 - Create a Basket

Happy Friday Friends,

Just in case you haven't been by TOMIC's latest challenge this week, it is to create a basket. I hope you will stop by and have a look at the Design Teams inspirational baskets, so many different styles to choose from and Kianel has made a tutorial. It's not my turn this week, but I love the idea and decided to join in at the last minute. This time of year they come in very handy for those extra little gifts full of little Christmas goodies, and what better selection of adorable images to use then Magnolia's newest collection - Sweet Christmas Dreams 2011. On my Blog rounds I fell in love with this basket from the wonderfully talented Heidy's Blog.

Happy Halloween Friends,

Not many Aussie's celebrate Halloween, but I admit I do have a little bit of a devil in me and love to colour these adorable images.

Even though this adorable Magnolia image, Brother & Sister is not a Halloween stamp, I thought they were the perfect choice, Tilda looks a little afraid of the big scary haunted house and brother Edwin is giving her a supporting little hug, so sweet.

(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. So dig out your cooking related Magnolia's and join us, 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. (Oops forgot to take a photo).

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.
