I know it’s a little early, but as soon as I saw this new Martha Stewart punch at my LSS, I thought of Tilda! And, I thought this particular Tilda would be the perfect one to wear the bunny ears!
This is Giggling Tilda, one of my favorites, from Magnolia. The DP used is from Flair Design ~ The Easter Surprise Collection ~ Bunny Trail. Ears are by Martha Stewart! 
The Sketch is for the Just Magnolia Challenge, being sponsored by 7 Kids College Fund.
Thanks for dropping by today!

Magnolia Flower Soft Tutorial
Supplies needed:
Stamped & Colored Image Flower Soft Christmas Green & Shamrock Green
Bowl for Mixing Flower Soft Flower Soft Glue or very thick, fast-drying Glue
Step 1: I wanted my Flower Soft to be a mixture of a dark green and a light green. For my first step, I poured portions of each color into a mixing bowl.
Step 2: I then thoroughly mixed the colors together until I reached the desired color.
Step 3: Carefully apply glue to areas you would like to add the Flower Soft.
Step 4: Pour mixed Flower Soft onto the glued areas, be sure to not let the glue set for too long without applying the Flower Soft, as it dries very quickly. It’s okay if the Flower Soft covers other areas since it will be tapped off and only stick to the glued areas. Using a spoon or other flat utensil, gently pat the Flower Soft onto the glued areas.
Step 5: After allowing the Flower Soft to set for a minute, gently tap the excess back into your mixing bowl. Remaining Flower Soft can always be re-used since the glue is thicker and does not mix with the excess Flower Soft.
That’s it!! Pretty easy. :)
Here’s my finished card:
Yay! We are finally able to share with you some of the cards made for the first Magnolia Ink magazine. This cutie is called Rowdy Tilda!
The dp used is by Scrappin’ Sports & more and I added LOTS of snowflake sequins to the background. Tilda is colored with Copics – colors are listed below – and mounted onto a Lattice Spellbinders Shapeabilities Pendant. I also added a large snowflake from Making Memories, along with some gorgeous metallic edged ribbon from my stash as an accent.
Thank you for stopping by today ~ Hope you are keeping warm!

The next issue of Magnolia Ink! Scheduled to be released in Sweden on Tuesday, January 19th! I’ll try to keep you posted when it will be available elsewhere.
This really has to be one of my (many!) favorite Tilda images. She just look sooo sweet and innocent ~ personally, I’m still having issues with her wearing heels on some of the newer stamps! lol The stamp is from the A Little Yummy For Your Tummy Collection ~ Oops Tilda.
Tilda was colored with Copics, cut out and attached with dimensionals to another stamped piece of cardstock which was highlighted with Distress Ink in Dried Marigold. The DP used is from the Basic Grey Nook & Pantry 6×6 paper pad, which I thought would work well with this computer-generated sentiment …
Thanks for stopping by today. Hope you’re having a good week.

Happy New Year my friends! Of course you know what that means … time for Valentines Day cards! This cutie is called Tilda with Key and the background stamp is the Love Heart ~ both from the Magnolia Love Collection.
Tilda has been colored with Copics, with part of her dress paper pieced. The key was heat embossed onto silver foil paper and cut out also. The background Heart stamp impression was sponged with Distress Ink in Dusty Concord. The edges were sponged with Aged Mahogany. The DP is from DaisyD’s Maybe Baby Collection. Here’s a photo of the inside of the card where I’ve added a silver key charm:
Thanks for visiting today. I hope you are staying warm on this chilly January day!

I apologize for neglecting my poor Magnolias ~ Tis the season for TOOOO many tasks to be done! I decided to join in the Just Magnolia challenge for this month which is to make a card for someone special.
This adorable Magnolia image is Dalecarlia Coat Tilda. I love the floral design on her coat, and thought it would look nice highlighted with gold embossing powder.
I tried to keep my Tilda card a bit more simple to highlight the gold embossing and the rich colors of the DP by K&Company. I did add some gold corduroy foil paper and gold glitter brads. Tilda has been colored with Copics, cut out and popped up with dimensionals. Her Dalecarlia Coat was paper pieced with matching DP from K&Co.
If you’re interested to learn a little about the Dalecarlia style from Sweden, I found this article that provides some information.
We’re in the middle of a HUGE snowstorm here in Wisconsin! My daughter sent me some photos of my cutie pie twin granddaughters playing in the snow this morning and thought I would share one with you!
Cool Snow Fort! ~ Hailee & Jordynn
(I thought it was kinda cute that Jordynn is tilting her head the same as Tilda above!)
LOTS of snow in Wisconsin!!
Thanks for visiting today. Hope you’re enjoying this Holiday Season and staying warm!

Hello! I thought it would be fun to join the Just Magnolia Challenge this week, since they are featuring this awesome
Sketch by Mina …
![Mina+sketch+wk+31_thumb[1]](http://mymagnolias.files.wordpress.com/2009/11/minasketchwk31_thumb1.jpg "Mina+sketch+wk+31_thumb[1]")
Here’s my card for the challenge:
This is Chilly Tilda from the Winter & Christmas 2007 Supplement collection at Magnolia.nu. I love her adorable little fury jacket and decided to add some Fun Flock, here’s a closeup view:
I’ve also added LOTS of sparkling glitter and some turquoise rhinestones to the snowflakes, which have been cut out with two MS punches and the new snowflake edge punch . . .
The sentiment is computer generated and taken from an old winter/Christmas song sung by various artists, i.e., Bing Crosby, Dean Martin and many more! I like that the Sketch has the sentiment vertically on the side, it was a nice change!
Thanks for visiting today – Hope you’re keeping warm!
Hugz, Mary

It’s a BEAUTIFUL Fall day today in Wisconsin! Have to get out there and enjoy it, since we all know what’s just around the corner!!
This little Tilda is called Tilda Holding Magnolias ~ but, every time I see the image, the magnolias remind me of milk seed pods! lol I remember as a little girl collecting the seed pods and making a wreath from them. So, I thought I would make an Autumn card with Tilda collecting milk seed pods!! I also added the Fall Background stamp for a true Autumn look.
This card is for the November Magnolia-licious Highlites DT Sketch challenge. I just love this Sketch!
Tilda is colored with Copic markers, cut out and attached with pop dots. The DP is from The Paper Loft, called Autumn Blaze and Candy Apple, and I added some Autumn Harvest Pearlized brads from The Paper Company Studio.
I actually had time to decorate the inside of this card:
And, I always have fun “accessorizing” my Tildas ~ for this little cutie, I added some tiny ribbons to her braids …
Hope you are having a wonderful Saturday afternoon! Hugz ~ Mary

Well, since PIE season seems to be upon us, I thought this little Tilda would be perfect on a card! This is Apple Pie Tilda. She is colored with Copics, cut out and attached with Pop-it dots. The sentiment is computer generated. I also used a MS Arch Lattice edge punch for the trim around the sentiment circle and added some MS ribbon. The paper used is from K&Company.
