It’s a Butterfly Dreams post!

Some super sweet stamps from Magnolia on my stair step card today! The latest collection, Butterfly Dreams…they just keep getting cuter! I also used a few Magnolia Doohickey’s dies… I’ll link to them all in the photos below.

I made this a back panel stair step. I didn’t take time to search to see if anyone has already done this. I didn’t like it as tall either so I did some changing. The pattern paper is from the Webster’s Pages 6×6 pad called Spring Market/Yacht Club. Some really neat designs in the collection… link below.

Linking up to the Just Magnolia Challenge for this week, they’re celebrating birthdays! It’s HERE! Linking to the Wee Memories Challenge post, HERE, the challenge is “All Things Adorable”… well, that’d be Tilda and Edwin! : )

Here’s a side view to see the stair step…

And some close ups…

Made ‘ya smile! Thanks for stopping by… links below take you to the products I used when you click on the pictures! Happy Weekend!

Tilda is such a cutie! I’m loving this new collection as I’m sure you are too!!! I used Tilda With Balloon, check out the new You Are So Special die collection … You’ll ❤ them too!

I brought out my Distress Ink palettes again last night… all inspired after watching Dena’s how to videos, HERE. Fun, THANK YOU Dena! I enjoyed it! I’m linking my card up to the Just Magnolia challenge… this week is “anything goes” and I used the sketch from The Sweet Stop Sketches challenge blog.

I also used the Magnolia Doohickey’s dies, Tilda’s Lace and the mini scallop lace.

The pattern papers are from the new 6×6 MME pad Stella Rose, Hazel. Elongated Rectangle Nestabilites for the shapes… love them!

Autumn Tilda…

October 15, 2010September 14, 2012 Pam Sparks48 Comments

I love this Tilda, I think she looks rather like a Pilgrim and the little pumpkins are so charming! I also love the color pencil coloring of Moni HERE, so today I attempted to get her “look” with copics. hmmmmmm… She does magic with pencils and OMS!!! I kinda felt like I was creating mud! lol I’m happy with my brown, brown card though….as long as we don’t put Moni’s beside mine!!!!!!!

I used the Just Magnolia Challenge Blog Sketch for my card and the panel with Tilda on it was perfect for scoring on the left to create a fold. When you lift the “thank you” tab on the right, the panel comes up… I know…way too easy but that’s all I could do today!!! lol I always enjoy Dawny P’s sketches! Linking up to Totally Papercrafts Challenge Blog , Stampin For the Weekend Challenge Blog, Stampin’ B’s Challenge blog, the themes are Fall.

Here’s a couple more photos of the fold side and then the tab side…

Tilda – Circle Nestabilities – thank you sentiment – I like to edge all the papers and card-stock with Distress ink – Scored with the Martha Stewart scoreboard – Pattern Paper – Martha Stewart branch edge punch – SEI button – cord from JoAnn’s – the card is 6×6 in. square.

Happy Friday! Thanks for stopping by!
