Don't forget to join in the Sugar Bowl. There is always so much inspiration and also wonderful prizes.

Then Karen from Sugar Nellie, well she loves CAS cards, so there is a challenge over at Spitcoaststampers in the Sugar Nellie forum to make a CAS. I think this was the hardest card I have ever made lol I colored Annie with my copic's and added some paper from SU and then the ribbon was just from my stash.

Anything Goes

Well I tell you, I don't know what happened here but I either forgot to post my Just Magnolia or it got lost lol I would say after the week I have had it probably never even got made lol I was never so glad for this week to be over that is for sure.

This week at Just Magnolia the theme was Anything Goes, so instead of making a card I decided to make hanging notepad. I used some papers from K&Co and the most gorgeous flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts, the butterfly and leaf are punches from MS. I used Princess Tilda I just love her. She has been colored with my copic's and I used some glamour dust on her socks and gloves. The eyelets and ribbon are from SU and the cork I got at HL. Then just added some T pins and my post it note. The word Notes is a die from Bosskuts

Sugar Nellie!!!

Happy Monday everyone!!! Well since my computer crashed last week I am so behind getting my dt cards uploaded for Sugar Nellie. I had them made just didn't get them posted. So figured I would get this done today. I really hate to post them all at once but these Mary Hall images are just so darling. These pictures just do not do the images justice. I don't know what it is but my pictures are not taking good here lately.

This image here is called Daisy Chain Fairy's from Sugar Nellie. I have colored them with my copic's and spica glitter pens. This gorgeous paper is from K&Co. I am really not sure of the sentiment but have used some SU punches for the wording.

This cutie is the Butterfly Fairy, she is also colored with my copics and the papers are from K&Co also. I so love K&Co papers don't you? I have used some Prima flowers with a gem brad in the center and the bosskut flourish die. Added some flat pears to the bottom corner, and this paper is so sparkly.

Now look at these cute little elves!!! They are so much in love here. They are also colored with my copic's and I have used papers from BG on this card. The daisy border punch from MS and some satin ribbon from SU. The button brads are from my stash,

Now this card here I made today for the challenge over at Sunday Sketch and Stamp. My papers are from SU and these gorgeous fairy's from Sugar Nellie are so darling. Not a care in the world. I used the MS border punch and really don't know of the sentiment it was in my stamps with no name lol.

Well I hope you have enjoyed seeing these wonderful Fairy's and Elves from the Mary Hall collection at Sugar Nellie. Again I am so sorry for posting these all at once, but when my computer crashed I had no choice.

Oh and got a call today on the price for fixing my computer!!!!!!!!!!! OMG I hope these hackers out there really enjoy tearing things up for people. They must not have much else to do!!!

But please stay tuned and keep stalking Sugar Nellie for I am telling you there is lots going on there and you are all going to be loving it.

Thanks so much for stopping bye today, Today is the last day of my Holiday weekend have to return to the slave board tomorrow lol
