Magnolia – Edwin Hiking…

Pam Sparks49 Comments

Hi everyone!  The new challenge for this week at Tilda’s Town, HERE, is to ‘create an Autumn scene’.   Well,  I have lots of new stuff that needs used!  So I had to get out this new Tall Tree die I’ve had since the end of May and use it!  I used watercolor paper for all of this card.

This photos shows the side step folding and layering.  I couldn’t find a Magnolia grass die to link to,  so I linked up to a couple other grass dies that will work well for scenes too!

I have to tell you about a new store I’ll be linking to a lot!  I’m so excited about the extensive lines they carry and I think you’ll like it too!  All the stuff I use and love!

Over 90,000 products in stock, ready to ship!  When you shop through my links,  I’ll receive credit to keep buying new stamps and supplies to share here on my blog!   I really appreciate it because I love to stamp and share!

The Scrapping Center has tons of stamps!  Inky Impressions,  Stampendous, Hero Arts, Stampavie, Art Impressions, Magnolia, Stamping Bella and I could go on and on!  Dies too!  Pull down under papercrafting to die-cutting…. I could shop all day!!!

Back to Hiking Edwin… what a handsome guy!  I watercolored all of the images and the die cuts with Distress inks.  I linked to the colors I used below.   Don’t you love Walter the moose?  Cuter than cute.  Although I’m sure he’s yukky IRL! lol   You’ll find these new Magnolia stamps from the Turning Leaves collection at TildasTown.com HERE!  Awesome service… free shipping no matter how big your order… discounts the more you buy!  I love it when an order comes fast!

I cut the watercolor paper 8.5 x 5.5 in.,  then made the side steps.  The first step is 3/4 in, the second is 1 in. and the back one is  2  1/2 in.

I couldn’t find the birds on the sign stamp to link to… I don’t know the name either.  If you want to know holler and I can research some more later.  I used my stamp a ma jig to stamp the words on the sign… it’s an old Hero Arts stamp… lots of stamps would work on a sign!

Friday is always a new challenge @ Tilda’s Town Challenges blog, HERE!  This week it’s Anything Goes… a fun and popular theme!   We’re enjoying a new baby boy in the family!  Next month we’ll be enjoying another newborn!  So when I opened my drawer and pulled out a Stufftainer and saw these stamps that I hadn’t used yet… bingo!

I used Magnolia Tilda’s Family and Welcome to a Lovely Home stamps.  You’ll find them @ Tilda’s Town.com, HERE and HERE.   I colored them with Distress Ink Reinkers on Canson Manga Pad (last in the list in the link below).

It was fun trying Distress Ink Reinker coloring again…
I used Tattered Rose and vintage Photo for skin…
her hair is Rusty Hinge, Vintage Photo and Walnut Stain…
his hair is Vintage Photo and Walnut Stain…

The pattern papers are from Graphic 45’s Little Darling 8×8 paper pad. I edged all the papers with Antique Linen Distress ink and the ink blending tool.  I used Spellbinders Labels One sets… the largest is from the Grand set.  Seam binding ribbon is from Hug Snug and the button is from SEI.

On the Lake…

Pam Sparks31 Comments

❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤

I told you I had more boats coming!  hehe   I’ve had this stamp for awhile, love the simplicity of it but then I wasn’t so sure about how to color it!  The water isn’t really this green IRL… figures… ugh! Here’s the stamp info… Memory Box F1770 On the Lake.

❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤

❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤

As soon as I saw this last Memory Box die release I jumped right over to order!  I had to have this Honeyblossom Sprig!  I glued three cuts of green together then cut one in white and cut out the flowers and one in yellow and just used the centers.  I did shape the back side of the white flowers a little with my McGill Stylus set on a mouse pad.

The woodgrain background is an older stamp from Hero Arts (SS1000), stamped and edged with Walnut Stain Distress ink… it’s not big enough to cover the whole card so I stamp it four times… I’ve done this several times with cards that I’ve posted.  Love the random look of it.

The postal frame is a Spellbinders Nestabilities die.  The mat for the focal image is cut with the Perfect Layers 1/16th in. layer tool… the best investment I ever made for card making!

The postal cancellation and sentiment are from CC Designs and stamped with Versafine Onyx Black ink. It stamps the sharpest and cleanest image for sentiments of any ink out there… so worth the money!   Bummer I forgot to take a picture of the inside.  I layered white on green to the kraft card with the Perfect Layers tools.  Then stamped two more sentiments from the same CC Designs All About Dad sentiment set.  Yes,  I used my other tool I can’t stamp with out!  My Stamp a ma jig!

❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤

❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤

I stamped “On the Lake” with Clearsnap Archival Wicked Black ink and  watercolored it with Ranger Distress markers… I really do love them!  They color and blend so nicely on the Canson Manga paper I’ve linked to below.    I appreciate it so much when you make your purchases through my links!!!  I’m encouraged to keep working and sharing for sure!  Thank YOU!
