New Winter Tilda


Good afternoon everyone! I received my new Magnolia winter kit and the lovely Inkido papers yesterday.....of course, I had to make a card today! This is a quick card because my crafting time is very limited. I am not very happy with my coloring, but, as I said, it was quick!!!! Some day, I will actually be able to take my time and really make a nice card.

Thank you for visiting. I appreciate it so much. BIG HUGS, Christina

Autumn Wishes


OMG.......girls, this card was in the trash for the past few days! Seeing it on top of the trash for several days, I decided I'd try to rescue it by adding the punched edges....well, I decided to give it to our new neighbors, along with some cookies as a welcome gift!

I hope you are having a fabulous day and I thank you for stopping by and saying "Hi".......love and hugs, Christina

Tilda and her Kangaroo


Good morning to one and all.....hope you will have a wonderful day wherever you are. We had our first hard frost last night....a bit early, but Saturday is the first day of autumn. Love autumn....just not what follows...LOL!!!!

Today, I'd like to show you a birthday card I made for the lovely and talented Rachel, my great-niece! I colored Tilda with kangaroo from the latest Australian special edition Tildas. I just love this sweet image....honestly, they are getting cuter and cuter all the time, aren't they??? She is showcased on papers from my stash and a lovely Memory Box die. The beautiful pink trim is from Walmart.

Thank you for visiting my blog.....it's been a while since I posted a card, but I've been reading and there are not enough hours in a day to do both!!! Love and hugs, Christina

Autumn Tilda


Good afternoon to all my lovely blogging buddies....hope you're having a wonderful day. I had a very hectic day cooking, but I still managed to make a card featuring Autumn Tilda which I will be entering in Tilda's Town challenge.

I colored Tilda with copics and the papers are from my stash, purchased many years ago. It's really a very simple card depicting autumn, my favorite time of the year.

Thank you for visiting my blog and taking the time to leave a comment. It makes my day!!!! WOW......we will be treated to two new Christmas collections......hang on to your wallets....or NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lOVE and HUGS, Christina

Saturated Canary's Autumn


Hello to all my lovely blogging friends. I hope you had a wonderful day and enjoying the evening. I am such a huge fan of Saturated Canary and decided that I wanted to make a card with Krista's lovely image "Autumn". She is colored with copics and featured on papers from BG's Curio collection. I kept the card simple, but decided to add at least one flower from Prima and some fall leaves to go with the image.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog.....I am truly grateful for your continued support. It makes blogging fun! Love and hugs, Christina

September Christmas Entries for Hjertebodens Jule Blog


Good morning everyone.....so happy this weekend is over!!! Unlike most of you, I work every holiday and weekend and it was incredibly hectic.

I did manage to finish my Christmas cards for HJERTEBODENS JULE BLOGG where the challenge this month is to create at least one card using the following colors: Blue/Brown. My first card is a treat card featuring gorgeous Pion papers and the lovely Tilda with Cat from the Little Christmas Collection 2012.

My second card is vintage, featuring a lovely Stempelglede Christmas stamp. The papers are also from Pion Design and the lovely cameo with bells was a gift from a very dear friend.

My final card features Tilda with Fir and papers from MME. The large tree die is from Marianne Creatables and I stamped a Stempelglede swirl around the edge to enhance the image.

Thank you so much for visiting my blog and leaving a comment. It is truly appreciated. BIG HUGS, Christina

Goosebump Tilda Wishes You a Happy Birthday


Good afternoon everyone........I hope you are all enjoying a wonderful day! I made this birthday card for a very special person who happens to love geese and had several as pets! Goosebump Tilda from the Turning Leaves collection was the perfect choice. She is colored with copics and showcased on papers from Maja Design's Vintage Summer collection. I inserted a Magnolia heart tag on the top right. The oval floral die is from Spellbinders. The lovely doily in the background was a gift from a very dear friend.

The inside of the card features an Alota stamp on the jotting panel and a scalloped tag from Magnolia. I wanted a pocket on the inside of the card for lottery tickets.

I am entering this card in TILDA'S TOWN for the "Anything Goes" challenge and also in the JUST MAGNOLIA challenge which calls for a heart.

Thank you for visiting my blog and leaving a comment. I appreciate it. Hugs, Christina
