Open the Window !

Hello everyone,

A very simple card today, just to highlight these two very pretty Magnolia stamps coordinated with the green papers of the equally attractive "Miles Apart" collection by Maja Design.
(links at the end of the article)


For more realism and transparency, I cut each tile with a cutter and placed a piece of rhodoïd behind my first paper.


I also glued 3 very small roses on the roses of the stamp;) and used this "scalloped rectangle" die from My Favorite Things that I love !!




Have a beautiful end of day !
with love
Lilly

Hello everyone,

Today I am offering you a very girly birthday card, made once again with the wonderful collection of "Miles Apart" papers from Maja Design that I love !! (link at the end of the article)

I'll tell you a secret: the blues are as beautiful as the roses, can't wait to scrap them too !!


Stamp "Hippity Hoppity 2019: Flower Bunny Tilda", Magnolia
Dies "Fence" and "Chicken Wire", Magnolia


All thicknesses of papers are mounted on 3D foam to provide depth.


To dress my barrier, I mixed some pretty ready-made roses with two "house" flowers in white Foamiran. The leaves are made of paper.


Frankly, have you ever seen something so cute ??
Another doll that fits in the Top 10 of my favorite stamps ever ... well, the problem is that there are indeed about fifty stamps in my Top 10 ...

See you soon
Lilly

Castle Pop Up Box Card


Good morning!  I have a castle pop up card to show you today using Maja Design papers and the wonderful Magnolia Castle Doohickey die.  The papers are from Maja's Vintage Summer Basics, Denim & Friends and Traditional Christmas collections.


To make a symetrical front to the card I used castle die cut from the reverse side on the right of the card.  I have also used the reverse sides of the paper for the little brick sections for added interest.  The castle gates are made from the Window Doohickey.


I have used the castle again on the top of the card along with two towers cut from a Magnolia die from Volume 5.  The battlements are the top of the Lovely Fence Doohickey die.


On each side I have also added some little bricks from the castle Doohickey die.  The clouds were cut with the Doohickey from Volume 25, Bella Notte.


Once you open the gates the drawbridge drops down to reveal the birthday message.  


The 'portcullis' is the fence Doohickey from Volume 25 turned upside down.  I love it when you can use dies to make other items.


The whole card still folds down flat to be placed into an envelope.  I hope you like it and thanks for looking!

40 years !!

Hello everybody,

No card today but an explosion box that I had the pleasure of making for a very special birthday: the 40 years of my best friend.
(Must say that she is soooooo more awake than me! uh no, in real life, she is younger)


My box measures 9.5 cm squared and the lid 10 cm.
It is covered with beautiful papers from the "Miles Apart" collection by Maja Design, some paper foliage and flowers in white Foamiran (+2/3 mini roses from Craft Heaven Shop).
All sprinkled with a few drops of Glossy accent for a "Rain" effect.


 

And inside:


Stamp Magnolia "My Own Key Tilda"

I had fun cutting out the location of the window with a cutter and placing the same die on each side (removing the shutters on the outside) to have a real effect of transparency.



 Zoom in on details:





That's all for me !
See you soon

Bread, wine and ... macaroons !

Good morning all,

I took out my big favorite Créalies die to scrape this brand new Magnolia stamp from the "Lovely Collection 2021": "Paris Macaroon Tilda"


I matched it with the awesome "Little Street Café" pad papers by Maja Design and added some roses to it to finish off because, Craft Heaven Shop, it's not just pretty papers and pretty stamps, it's is also a multitude of pretty flowers to slip everywhere on your compositions!



See you soon

My Laundry Room

Hello everybody,

Today I am offering you a card with two pretty stamps from the new Magnolia collection : "My Laundry Room 2021". 


I made my embossed card using different thicknesses of 3D foam.
 I mixed two stamps from this year with an old one that fit perfectly with the new collection and, for more realism, I cut out a small window in my scene.


I used a nice Maja Design paper to make the wallpaper for my laundry room.



See you soon

Good Luck Card


Good afternoon!  Today's card is a good luck card I made for my son for his first ever day at work.  I have used Maja Design papers from the Shades of Denim and the Vintage Romance Collections.  I have used the Magnolia Recipe Card Doohickey to cut the background paper.  The four-leafed clover was created using the heart from Magnolia's Woodland Tags Doohickey set.  The button is from my stash.


The bottom edge of the card was cut with Magnolia's Swedish Lace Doohickey die.


The lettering was created with Thinlits Elle dies and black cardstock.



I hope you like it and thanks for looking!
