Magnolia Heart Hanger
This is a little heart hanger which I have made using hearts cut on the Cricut and the super cute new Magnolia Wilma the Dog with Rose stamp which has been coloured with Distress Inks. The papers are Bo Bunny which I over stamped with a Hero Arts 'Love' stamp and added some flowers and pearl sprays from my stash.
This card fits 6 of this weeks challenges as there are lots of heart/Valentines themes out there.
Papertakes - Love Hearts
LOTV - Valentine
Secret Crafter - Hearts
Simon Says Stamp - Photo Inspiration
Double Dutch - Valentine
Just Buggin - Valentine
I'm hoping to ink up a few more of the new stamps this weekend if I get the time!
Have a good Friday.
Supplies

Cute Card Thursday 'Spots and Dots'
This weeks theme at Cute Card Thursday is Spots and Dots. I have used Magnolia stamps from the 2008 School and Travel Collection and also Magnolia papers from the Yummy Tummy Collection. The train is cut with the Cricut and Bazzill Card.
I'm not sure about this card but I haven't felt like crafting as I have had a some sort of virus and have been feeling yukky most of the week. Luckily I'm starting to feel better now although I have passed it onto hubby!!
My new Magnolias from the Through my Heart collection arrived from Sir Stampalot yesterday, they are gorgeous especially Wilma the Dog and I can't wait to make a card using this image tonight.
Have a good Thursday!!Supplies
Stamps: Magnolia School and Travel Collection 08 - Traveller Edwin, Suitcases, Rubber Stampede - Sentiment

Cute Card Thursday, My Time to Craft and A Spoonfull of Sugar Card
This is my DT card for the Cute Card Thursday 'Blooming Gorgeous' Challenge but I am also entering it into the following 2 challenges as it fits their themes, My Time to Craft 'Elegant Rose' Challenge and A Spoonfull of Sugar 'Open' Challenge.
I stamped the Magnolia So Spooky Tilda and coloured her with Distress Inks, distressed the edges of the papers and added lots of gorgeous flowers and a couple of pearl sprays.
I am still spending my time messing with the Design Studio for the Cricut which explains the lack of cards!!!
Have a great Thursday.Supplies

Magnolia Down Under + Quixotic Challenges
I've finally got round to making a card, instead of just playing with the Cricut Design Studio!! This card will fit this weeks MDUC of Valentines and the Quixotic Challenge 'Ink Up An Old Stamp'. I have used a Magnolia image which I think is a couple of years old and some Yellow Bicycle papers. I have coloured Tilda with Distress Inks and the heart has been cut with the Cricut and embossed with a Cuttlebug folder, Vintage Writing.
I am hoping my hubby will have time to collect a parcel of flowers from the Post Office before his School Governors meeting as I don't want to have to wait until tomorrow night for them!!
Have a good evening.
Supplies
Stamp: Magnolia
Tools: Distress Inks, Cricut, Cuttlebug, Mc Gill Punch, Flowers, Pearls, Ribbon

Cute Card Thursday 'Pink + Grey Colour Combo'
This week's challenge at Cute Card Thursday is to use pink and grey on your card, I must say I found this really difficult as I'm not a pink girl!!! I have used an old Tilda on my card which I bought about 18 months ago and have only just got round to inking up - how bad is that? The papers are also some old ones which I found in my stash and I have just added some flowers, leaves and butterflies. As usual Tilda has been coloured with Distress Inks and the labels are cut with Nesties.
I hope you will be able to join in this weeks challenge as we have a fab prize.
Have a great Thursday!!
Supplies
Stamps: Magnolia - Tilda In Raincoat, Stampin Up - Sentiment
