Magnolia Downunder Challenge #39 and Stamp Something Challenge

Hello again :oD This week at  "Magnolia Downunder" the
challenge is SEWING it can be real sewing/stitching or it
can be fake. I have been thinking about dragging out my
sewing machine for a while and I am so glad that this
challenge came along, or I may not have discovered
what a fantastic tool the sewing machine is...I think
I'm hooked!

I am really enjoying making, three-dimensional projects
at the moment, in particular, giftboxes and bags. So this
week, I have decided to make 'Favour Bag/Handbag',
which I think would be ideal for little girl's parties,
Weddings, or anything you like :oD

I am also entering this into Stamp Something 
Pink Somethings Challenge.

I added a small velcro sticky dot, so that the bag can be

opened and closed. I also wanted to show you the back of

the bag, because this paper it so pretty, it has a beautiful

leafy pattern that is glittery and glossy. I brought it quite

some time ago at a cheap craft store and I really wish

that I had brought lots more :o)

 

Stamps          60's Tilda and "yummy" by Stampin up
Flowers         Bizzy Becs
Card               Dusty pink cardstock
Other             Ribbon, clear plastic heart, pink pearls

Thankyou for looking, please feel free to leave a
comment, as comments are really appreciated :oD

Happy Stamping!

Just Magnolia Challenge week 48

Hello again, this is week 48 at "Just Magnolia" and they have a sketch as follows...

As it is almost Easter, I decided to keep the easter theme

going by making a little 'handbag' that I can later add

eggs to, so that I can add it to my little girl's easter hunt

I got the inspiration for this project, from page 57 of

issue #2 of  "Magnolia Ink" magazine.

I have adapted the sketch to fit my project...

Stamps     'Tilda cuddling bunny' and 'Easter wishes' from Daisy & Dandelion

Flowers     Gardenia/Cherry Blossoms/leaves - Magnolia Downunder store

others are from Bizzy Becs

Other    Pink and white cardstock, kaisercraft paper, Dazzling diamonds

Magnolia Downunder Challenge #37

This week the team at Magnolia Down Under are celebrating

their 1st Birthday and rather fittingly, this week's challenge is

to create a birthday card. The team are giving lots fantastic 

prizes, so why not "hop" on over and  take a look "here"

I have decided to make a card/box for the occasion...

I started with a trifold card, you can see how it opens out below

The inside of the card

and because this is a Birthday card, I wanted to make it special,

by making it into a giftbox, here is the side view of the box...

and with all the fantastic blog candy going around at

Magnolia Downunder  I just had to add "candy" to the box!

My 5 year old daughter already has dibs on this card/box for

her next birthday (she made me promise :oD) do you think it's

the card or the contents that she is REALLY after (lol), it's just

a shame that her birthday is not until December. Oh well, we

might have to refill it by then haha!

Stamps      Tilda with Balloons, 60's Tilda, Dragonfly Tilda, Sweet Tilda,

                    Butterfly Tilda and the 'make a wish' stamp was from spotlight.

Card/Paper    Regal Rose cardstock from Stampin up, Pink Bazill

                        and the paper is from "The Sweet stack"

Embellishments   Flowers were all from BizzyBecs, Ribbon, glitter,

                           'Happy' and 'Birthday' charms and rhinestone brads

                           are from my own scrap stash

                           Glossy accents on tilda's balloons.

     

Congratulations to everyone at Magnolia Downunder for an

awesome year, lets hope that there will be many more!

Thanks for the inspiration :oD
