Pirate Pop Up Card

Good afternoon, I hope you're safe and well!  I thought I would share a card I made for a tutorial on the Magnolia Youtube Channel a few weeks ago, as I have just adapted the card to give to my nephew by adding the number 7 to it.

The card features the cute pirates from the You Arrr Amazing and the Treasure Art Stamp sets, painted using the no lines technique.

The Jolly Roger was embossed with white embossing powder.

I have used the Spruce Twig Doohickey die from the Sweet Christmas Dreams Collection to create the palm trees.

The wave Doohickey is from Volume 1.  I have also used the Feather Doohickey and the sentiment from the You Arrr Amazing stamp set.

I hope you like it.  Check out the video tutorial if you would like to have a go at making something similar yourself.  Thanks for looking!

TOMIC December Challenge - A Christmas Gift Box

Good morning!  I hope you've had fun opening your Advent calendars this morning!  If you managed to get your hands on the Magnolia Advent calendar you might recognise the little cuties on my gift box today for our new TOMIC challenge.  I have created a round gift box with gold and cream cardstock for a sophisticated Christmas look.

For the tag I have used a Doohickey from Volume 23 and the mini wrapping tag and Tilda from the Advent calendar's early bird envelope.  It is difficult to see in the photo but I have added some Wink of Stella to Tilda's trousers to make them a shiny gold.

This little wrap tag will come in handy for all sorts of tags and bags!

I used the same circle as the tag on the lid of my box and topped it with a paper bow and pine fronds created with the incredible Doohickey die from Volume 1, and topped them with a jingle bell.

I added tiny snowflakes cut with the Doohickey dies from Volume 23 and the edge of the lid was cut with a lace edge Doohickey from the same volume.

I hope you like it and I've inspired you to join us this month at TOMIC.  Pop over to the blog to see the rest of the team's stunning gift boxes!

Summer Vibes

 Good evening!  What a gorgeous summer we're having here in the UK!  This Lazy Day Tilda from the Poop Party collection is perfect to represent this summer!  I love the huge sun hats on the Tildas in this collection.

 I painted Tilda with Distress Inks using the no lines technique as always.  I also painted a little beach and scene around her.

 I added some flowers and lace from my stash.  The papers are by Maja Design.

 I used the Lovely Umbrella Doohickey to make a parasol for Tilda and some pennants using a die from Afternoon Tea Doohickey Kit Volume 14.

 The Summer Vibes sentiment is also from the Pool Party Collection.

 The cute flip flops Doohickey from Volume 1 are also perfect for a beach card.

I hope you like it and thanks for looking! x
