The More Stamps, The Merrier!

Stamptacular Sunday Challenge #73
"Two's Better Than One"
Create a card or project using MORE THAN ONE STAMPED IMAGE! 
This week's sponsor:



I've taken this opportunity to practice the "masking" technique, and I could not resist the urge to create a Halloween card....Why? Well, my sister-in-law, Linda, has a killer collection of Magnolia stamps (including Halloween images) - some still brand spanking new in unopened packages! And me, being the loving sister-in-law that I am, had to help her out (he-he!)
I used 4 different stamps from the Magnolia "So Spooky" Collection: #398 Sitting Witch Tilda, #412 Pumpkin and Leaves, #573 So Spooky Tree and #560 So Spooky Fence. Thanks Linda, for letting me play with your toys!

Look what I made - another "T-Slide" card!  I made a "T-Slide" card a couple of weeks ago, and kind of had a tough time with it.  I decided to give it another go, and I am so pleased with how this one turned out.

    Hello Annette! Amazing creation! Love your Tilda and all the scenery you created around her. Marvelously colored. Have not tried yet this style of card, but just love yours, it turned out so beautifully. The orange glittery paper is WOW! All the details: the embossed pumpkin background, and the glue punch. So cute.
    Wish I also had a magnolia fan-sister in law to play with OH! the afternoons we could have!
    Hugs. Danielle

Season's Change

Welcome back, Friends!  Come join me this week for Stamptacular Sunday Challenge #78 - "Season's Change!" This week's challenge is to create a card or project using ONLY colors of Fall!   Oooh, how pretty, huh?! Our SPONSOR this week is  Magnolialicious Our lucky winner's PRIZE:  Here is my DT creation for this week's AWESOME challenge theme.... An inside view of the card, and custom envelope/box. All of the flowers on this card are handmade. I know, you're probably thinking, "oh what a lot of work!"  Actually, it really is not. I use paper punches to create the flowers and leaves. So, whenever I have very small scraps of paper I punch them with my floral punches & store them in a box for future use. It's very convenient for me to have the pieces already punched too. Then, whenever I get bored or often while I watch TV, I "form" the flowers & store them away so that they're ready when I need them. This is my box o

Spring Flutterings

I had to squeeze some "quiet time" in today, because I did not have anytime last week to do anything.  My 8 month old "Baby Diva" has kept me busy, as she is staying with me while her Mommy is out of town till Wednesday.  Fortunately, she is such a good baby.  She must have known I was feining for some crafting time, because she was so cooperative! I was kind of all over the place with this card.  It has a little bit of everything: Stamping, stitching, handmade flowers ( you know me & my handmade flowers!), border punches, and a pretty butterfly.   I wanted to try making a new flower.  The larger flower was created using an apple, star & daisy punches.  Each of the flower centers have a touch of bling by Viva Decor glitter pen in "Hologram."  The butterfly was cut from a Nesties die.  I blinged up each layer with stickles & hit with 2 coats of Crystal Effects.  I used Kaiser Craft pearls in "Bliss" for the body & coiled some
