A Little Yummy for your Tummy

Hello Lovelies, a happy Sunday to you all,

Magnolia Down Under Challenge #31 

Sketch Challange with a twist - A girly card with something orange.

We have a new Sponsor this week - "The Cutting Cafe"
They offer a huge range of affordable printable stamps and cutting templates - stop by & check them out.

As you can see I probably broke the rules a few times. I mirror reversed the sketch and my card could have been a lot more girly, but I have spent the last few days in bed suffering from bad headaches, something I don't normally suffer from, I crawled out of bed to make this card, totally not happy with it, I should not have left my DT card so late, but sometimes the mojo just isn't flowing when it should. I will probably re-do this card when I am feeling better. Anyways enough about me.

I used another of my favourite stamps, "Peachy Tilda", sentiment stamp and this gorgeous paper all from Magnolia's Yummy for your Tummy Collection (Peachy Tilda is in stock now at Kellie's Magnolia Down Under Store) Coloured with Copics, my favourite MS border punch and silk ribbon, flowers & half pearls.

By now I am sure you would have read our exciting news, Magnolia Down Under Challenges are changing to WEEKLY CHALLENGES, woo hoo, starting next week. You now get to play more often and win more often. I hope you will join us.

Pretty in Pink - Oops I forgot

Happy Thursday Everyone,

Magnolia-licious Pretty in Pink Blog Hop

Magnolia-licious Highlites Design Team have inspired me once again. They have put on a wonderful Pretty in Pink display of amazing creations. Thanks Ladies, you are all so talented and it was so wonderful to see Lady Diana join in and see her amazing creation. I had so much fun and thanks for the inspiration.

I decided to join in and this is my entry Magnolia-licious Highlites Pretty in Pink Blog hop challenge.

I've also joined

Simon Says Stamp Challenge this week is PUNCH IT - the Design Team have some wonderful creations so full of inspiration. I love my border punches, I have used an EK Success border punch, this is a favourite of mine.

Papertake Weekly Challenge - Pretty Pink Papertake

You can use other colours but need to be mostly pink - I think this should qualify.

A Spoon Full of Sugar Challenge 87 - lots of layers

I hope this qualifies with all the layers added.

Creative Card Crew - Challenge 43 - Punch It

I have used EK Success border punch for the scallop border.

Another Easel card you say, I know you are probably sick of seeing them, I started to think maybe I should stop making so many, but than I thought it is no different to making regualar square cards, I always decorate the inside of my card, but not always straight away and when I need to send it, I can't find the same dp I used, with Easel cards they are finished at the same time as the front and with only one surface to cover.

I made this card for someone special, hope she likes it. I have used one of my very favourite Tilda's, Oops from Magnolia's Yummy for your Tummy Collection and the bow with hearts from the new Winter Stamp kit, I know I will use this one a lot. I've used copics, cut the word Oops using my Cricut, smothered  in glittery goodness. Sentiment is from Inkadinkadoo. EK success punch for the border (one of my faves),  ribbon & flowers from stash. DP Anna Griffin. Spellbinders Tag. I made the matching gift bag with my much loved & used Spellbinders label and again EK punch, filled it was some gorgeous flowers.
