Magnolia Christmas at The Rubber Buggy

Hi everyone!

I'm here with my favorite Christmas stamp from Magnolia. If you've followed me through my time as a DT-member at The Rubber buggy, you've seen this stamp before.

I'm so glad Kellie chose Christmas Tilda with cat for me in my absolute first DT-package! You might also recognise the papers on the card as well as I had some left overs from last year. But it is just so beautiful paper who can throw it out?

The pine branches are from a Cheery Lynn die cut in paper from Graphic 45, solids and patterns 6x6. Also the small bells in the bow are from my stash. Otherwise, everything on this card can be found in the store if you would like to make you own. I cut of the yellow stems on the poinsettias and replaced them with flatbacks instead.

Products used from The Rubber Buggy:
Christmas Tilda with cat, Magnolia rubber stamp
Magnolia 12x12 paper, red noel from vintage Christmas
Magnolia 12x12 paper from 2012, not in stock at the moment

Happy Halloween

Hi everyone!

With Halloween coming up I thought it best to use my cut apart sheet from Graphic 45 place in time, October. But I also thought it would go well with a label from Steampunk spells too. This is very typical of Graphic 45 to coordinate across the collections.

It's just another of those ready to use post card backgrounds that I've used here as well. I also did another one from September - back to school.

Products used from The Store:
Place in time, 12x12 paper pad, Graphic 45
Steampunk spells, 8x8 paper pad
Vintage photo, distress ink
Flat backs

Anyone for Anya challenge - Vintage

Hi everyone!

Hurray for another AFA challenge! You might have noticed that the challenges have become a forthnight long instead of weekly to give you more time to participate.

This time it is vintage. So in my background I have some script and, it's all edged with vintage photo. I had some old paper tape by 7 gypsies that look like old leather. The vintage clock is from my favorite collection by Bo bunny - time piece. I just love the colours and feeling of those papers.

The lace in the background is from the rubber buggy and I have coloured it with LSG dark chocolate truffles. Alice Bean is coloured with copic markers in soft blue.

Thank you for visiting!

Anyone for Anya challenge - Monochromic

Hi everyone!

I've been using up a whole lot of scraps for this card. Ok not a whole lot, barely made a dent in my scrap box - but my point is that I only used my scraps :)

I coloured my image by CC design with copics from the B9-series on white smooth paper by Neenah.
Apart from that and the grossgrain ribbon in the back, everything is scraps - even the dry embossed piece has just been lying around. I'm quite pleased with the result.

So join us at AFA:)
Can't wait to see your creations!

Thank you for visiting!

Back to school with The Rubber Buggy

Hi everyone!

Can you believe the year has come to October already?!
Time really flies by, doesn't it.
I'm here with a card made by just one paper from G45 place in time 12x12, cut apart from September.

 Even the background of the card is from the sheet:)
