Magnolia, Tilda’s Town Challenge…

o

Let’s Celebrate!  This week’s challenge @ Tilda’s Town.

I colored Birthday Tilda with Distress ink pad reinkers on Canson Montval cold press watercolor paper.  The pattern paper is from the Basic Grey Blush 6×6 paper pad.  I used two DooHickeys dies,  Twisted Swirl and Heart Flower Lace Border.

I edged the papers with Walnut Stain Distress ink and the ink blending tool.  Stickles on the candles!

Tilda is such a cutie with her yummy chocolate cake!  A Viva Decor pearl pen for the dots in the background and the pearl is from Magnolia too.

I used the Perfect Layer Tools 1/16th inch ruler for matting… link and discount code in my sidebar…

Perfect Paper Crafting and Lawn Fawn Blog Hop…

I’m so excited to welcome you to another blog hop!  The ladies have wonderful posts to share and I’m so happy to be part of the line up!  I LOVE Perfect Layer Tools and pairing them up with Lawn Fawn…well… you’ll see below,  I had fun cuz I LOVE Lawn Fawn too! I made so many cards, I don’t know which one to start with!

_MG_7499-001

ok – I’ll start with the ‘faux’ polaroid shot! For this card I used the Home Sweet Home stamp set, Home Sweet Home die set, Say Cheese stamp set, Say Cheese die set and the Pink Lemondade 6×6 paper pad.  I used the 1/16th inch Perfect Layers Ruler to mat the floral piece.  Then to mat the floral matted piece to the shell piece,  I used the 1/4th inch and 3/4 inch Perfect Layers Ruler.  I used the 1/8 inch Perfect Layers Ruler to mat behind the shell pattern, which is the card base.  I measure the top with a clear ruler and then cut the three sides with the Perfect Layers Ruler.

_MG_7496

A friend of mine has been making all kinds of postcard cards lately… this card was inspired by Jan!  Thank you Jan!  I started with the You’ve Got Mail stamp set, the jar is cut out of a sheet of the Pink Lemonade 6×6 paper pad, the greenery is from the Blissful Botanicals stamp set  and Blissful Botanicals die set.  I used the 1/16th inch Perfect Layers Ruler to mat behind the pink and orange piece.  Copic Sketch markers to add some shading here and there.  I have to say the Lawn Fawn dies cut the stamped images so easily!  I didn’t use tape at all!

_MG_7483

I just had to color a few images!  Love this cute little pooch and tree! So fun to color!  I used Critters in the Burbs stamp set and the Pink Lemonade 6×6 paper pad.   The black layer is from the 1/16th inch Perfect Layers Ruler,  the next green layer is with the 3/8th inch Perfect Layers Ruler,  the yellow is 1/16th,  the plaid is 1/2 and the base is 1/4th inch.  I used the Lawn Fawn Trimmings cord on the fold.

_MG_7463

This card makes me smile! I’ve always enjoyed riding my bike.  I used the Cruising Through Life stamp set, Sunny Skies stamp set and the Pink Lemonade 6×6 paper pad.   For the layers I started with the Perfect Layers Ruler  1/8th inch, 1/16th inch, 3/16th inch and last for the card base is 1/8th inch.  I stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Copic Sketch Markers.  The circle on the sun is paper pieces with the yellow dot from the paper pad.

_MG_7485-001

This is kind of a silly card but I had fun with it! Hope it brings a smile!   The Dad’s Day stamp set,  the Bannerific stamp set, the Bannerific die set, the Pink Lemonade 6×6 paper pad and Riley’s ABC’s for the words, I, You and to.  The arm chair is a solid stamp, inked with Walnut Stain Distress ink and stamped on the plaid from the paper pad.  I made the little doily on the back of the arm chair with the stitched heart stamp from the Home Sweet Home stamp set.  I stamped it three times and then cut it to fit.  I used two Stampin Up oval punches for the rug under the arm chair. For the layers I started with the Perfect Layers Ruler 5/16th for the top and two sides and 1 inch at the bottom. Then the black layer is the 1/16th inch and the card base is 1/8th inch.

Below is the list for the HOP… visit the blogs and comment for a chance to WIN!
