Well… the new was challenging. I went with stuff I hadn’t used yet… Tilda, the medal stamp and the pattern papers had not been cut into yet! ugh… unfortunately I have a lot of that! lol The desk stamp is old…meaning I’ve used it before!

I stamped the images with Memento Tuxedo Black ink, on Copic X-press it card and colored with Copic Sketch markers.

Magnolia, Tilda’s Town Challenge…

September 28, 2012January 8, 2013 Pam Sparks32 Comments

Click over to Tilda’s Town Challenges and choose your passion this week, CAS (clean and not so simple for me) or Fussy and Fancy. My card is CAS although I think when you color it’s hard to say it’s simple!

I stamped Tilda with Corn on PTI select white card-stock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Copic Sketch markers. Her hair is E50, E31, E55 and E37. Her shirt is YG0’s and her skirt is YR0’s and YR12.

I used some pattern paper from Simple Stories and SU card-stock for the card base. The sentiment is from a company, long out of business… sorry about that.

The greenery on the bottom right is the Memory Box Serafina Heart die that I trimmed to work in the corner. It’s a heart shaped floral die… kinda fun how it matched the paper!

Before I go fix supper, I wanted to let you know that Scrapping Center is celebrating with a sale!

Spellbinders Dies HERE!

This weekend marks the end of our first month in business and what an adventure it has been. In order to celebrate our milestone with a bang, we are offering 35% on all Spellbinders dies. Sale ends Sunday night.

Thanks for stopping by and visiting my Tilda creation today! I appreciate it! Have a great Fall weekend. We found an organic apple orchard not too far away… so excited… hope to go this weekend. I love apple crisp! Take care and ttul!

Magnolia – Edwin Hiking…

September 7, 2012August 22, 2013 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!
