Spring Bliss!

Hellooooooooo Friends & Happy Monday to ya'll!  How was your weekend?  Mine was fabulous--the weather was just beautiful here in VA.  Friday it was 80 degrees---yeah 80 in March--whooohooooo! But blue skies & sun all weekend which made Suzanne a very HAPPY GIRL! LOL!  My mom was visiting and we grilled out, did some shopping (just a lil' hee hee) and had movie night.  So it was really nice and I enjoyed every minute of family time that we had.  This week I'm crazy busy with work projects and kid activities---Alexa starts back up in gymnastics and Riley is doing Football Spring Training.  I swear that boy grows 2 inches every night--he has outgrown his NEW jeans again, arghhhh!  I cannot KEEP UP, LOL!  I don't know but I think he might be heading for 6'5---he's already 5'11 and still growing and wearing a size 13 shoe.  Do you know how MUCH size 13 tennis shoes cost for a teen boy that busts them up every 2 months? A LOT! LOL!  Coupled with his new jeans every couple of months and a sky-high grocery bill and I might go BROKE I SWEAR--thank goodness I only have 1 boy, hee hee!  I really have NEVER seen a person sit and drink a whole gallon of milk at dinner and eat his whole plate of food and still be hungry--its like dumping food into an empty barrel every day ;)  CRAZY!  My "baby" has grown that's for sure!

Tonight we are having a fun CHAT on the Color Me Creative Classroom to wrap up the birthday festivities that we had this past week.  The chat is on the main page and EVERYONE is welcome to stop by at 7:15 pm EST!  I sure hope you all that participated had as much fun as I did--it was so great to see you all participate in the challenges & chat on the site.  I love ya all and so appreciate your friendship & support!  Remember some of the challenges are still on-going so you still have a chance to win.  And you can still DONATE HERE (every $3 donated gets you 1 entry) to be entered for the Grand Prize of a NEW 2011 Ltd Edition Cricut Expression and a $50 Gift Certificate to Oozak.com!

Magnolia-licious Blog Hop--- Spring Bliss!


Today we have an exciting Blog Hop for you---BOTH the Magnolia-licious DT and the Challenge DT are putting on a fun hop for you featuring all Spring/Easter Projects.  Right now there is a FANTASTIC Easter/Spring Extravaganza Contest that Magnolia-licous is having and you can find all the details on the Magnolia-licious Highlites Blog HERE---winners could win up to $150 in gift certificates!  There are 3 separate categories that you can choose from to do (or do all 3 if you'd like)---each of the DT members has chosen a category (or 2) to do for their projects today to get you inspired so you can go and get crafty & enter in the contest 'kay?!  LOL!

You can find a full list of the DT gals who are doing the hop today at the Magnolia-licious Highlites Blog as well in case you get lost CUZ I'M THE LAST STOP on the Hop today. 

***After reading thru my post (for some sweet candy too) you need to start from the
BEGINNING OF THE HOP you need to go to Angie Hunt's Blog Here! ***



I chose to do 2 of the categories cuz' I couldn't stop at just 1, LOL!  These new "Butterfly Dreams" Collection stamps from Magnolia-licious are too delish and cute to stop at just one KWIM! I adore this whole line--maybe the cutest line evah!  I created a gift/candy box and a matching card for my projects---the white pail in the top picture is from Target & stuffed with candy & stuffed bunny (its for my neice).  I used "#363 Tilda & Her Bunny" and "#560 Wheelbarrow" for both of my projects.  The sentiment is an older Hero Arts stamp set that I adore & use often.  Those fabulous papers are new by Memory Box "Minuet" and I'm soooooooooo loving them, such soft pretty patterns & colors.





This fabulous gift/candy box is a template from My Time Made Easy Templates called "Creative Card Candy".  I love Lauren's templates--you can buy them in cut (svg & other) files or pdf files.  Since I don't use my Cricut (shhhhh---its shameful I know, LMBO) I always get them in pdf and just print them out & cut since I don't mind cutting so much.  There are tons of fun ones to choose from, easy to put together and make great gifts!  This one could hold candy like I filled mine with or other small treats and gifts.  I decorated the cover with that cute "Tilda and her Bunny", pretty papers and the swirls are Marianne Designs dies that I looooove!  And yep, the project is held together with fabulous Scor-Tape--I love that stuff--the best!  I used a MS border punch to create the paper lace around the center of the box and the ribbon is by SU. (SU if you are listening please bring back Soft Sky cs--I need more, lol)





Isn't "Tilda and her Bunny" adorable--omgoodness I just love her!  She's colored with Copics: B04,B02,B000/YG25,YG03,YG000/YR24,YR23,YR21,YR20/E11,E00,R20/C3,C1,C00/E29,E25,E31,E50.  I gave her bow and shirt some pale blue polka dots with my Spica Pen in Sky Blue.  The bunny's tail got some Doodlebug Flock (25% off) on it for fuzziness fun!  Her bow also got some Stickles for sparkle.


For the card I used that fabulous new spring "Wheelbarrow"--I love, love tulips and this image is just fabulous on its own OR paired with a cute Tilda or Edwin.  I used the same colors and papers as the candy box on this card.  The white cs on both projects was embossed with a new larger (5x7") CB folder called "polka-dots".  I added a bow made with the Bow Easy & topped it with a Prima Pearl Center and added some pearls to the left side of the card as well.



For the main image I used Stickles on the bases of the tulips and on the swirls.  Then I used Viva Decor Pearl Pen (ice white) to create pearls on the dots for more texture.  Isn't this a gorgeous image?  I just love it and it's perfect on its own for so many occasions.

**Spring Candy---Want to win 3 of these NEW Magnolia Butterfly Dreams Stamps (your choice) and  a $10 Gift Certificate to My Time Made Easy Templates?  
Just tell me "What is your favorite Magnolia stamp EVER?"  
by Friday, March 25th on this post only!

Since I'm the last stop on the hop, make sure to visit Angie's Blog Here to start from the beginning.  And head over to the Magnolia-licious Highlites Blog to learn how you can enter into the Magnolia-licious Spring/Easter Extravaganza Contest!!  You won't want to miss out on it!

  5. Holy Cow, my favorite Magnolia stamp?? That's like picking your favorite piece of dark chocolate candy!

    Wow, I love the entire Bon Voyage Collection because of it's diversity, so rule it out since there are too many to count.... I guess it's between 906 Happy Tilda -name says it all, and 246 Unwrapped Tilda, because it's versatile, you can use her for birthday's, Christmas, or any gift giving occasion.

    And, your card and project were just adorable, Suzanne. As usual, coloring was to perfection, right on!!! Those new stamps are just adorable, gotta have that wheelbarrow with the tulips, so darn cute!!

Enjoy the great weather & thanks. Hugs, Sharon :o)

    ReplyDelete
  62. You colors are so "springy" and soft. I really love the whole look of the card and of course the box. You are such a talented young lady. My favorite Tilda would be Jam Tilda as she is the very first one I bought, but I also love the mermaid Tilda.

    ReplyDelete
  63. Hi Suzanne!
    I always love reading your blog.
    you creations for the blog hop are just so beautiful. I love the card with the wheelbarrow. The papers are gorgeous. I love how you embossed the paper with the Swiss dots to give it that added dimension. your coloring is always so gorgeous.
    The box with the goodies is gorgeous. That is my most favorite stamp of all time. It is so cute. I must say the wheelbarrow comes in at a second best. I love how you colored Tilda and her bunny and love how you used the swirls around the sentiment. yes this Tilda is my most favorite ever.

  70. Once again Suzanne, sheer perfection. I love the soft blues you have chosen, very, very beautiful.
    I read each comment with interest as to their favourite stamp. I asked Pauline, the artist who draws the stamps what her favourite was and she said "Happy Tilda". My favourite is always the new ones as they come in and when the next Collection is released I fall in love with it.

  72. Well, it would help if I was more awake!

    A little humor - I once had a roommate with a size 13 shoe - SHE - YES, YOU READ THAT RIGHT - was 6'5"! I was 5'2". We were quite a sight!

    My favorite Magnolia stamp - so many choices and so little time! I don't think I've ever met a Magnolia I didn't like! I love poor Edwin. He is so easily overlooked. I guess I'd have to go with any of our little guy!

    I will have to say the WHEELBARROW stamp by Magnolia is a fun favorite --- I always love a NEW ONE and keep changing my FAVORITE! hee hee..... I love love the spring and all my flowers in the front flower beds. I've always WANTED a wheelbarrow to put out front with tons of pretty flowers cascading over the sides. This stamp is by far the favorite on my present list!

  79. Good morning! Fabby card Suzanne~~I don't have all the Maggie's but I do have the Tilda w/clover, and I've colored her up three times so far, she is adorable!

    ReplyDelete
  80. Suzanne,
    Your card is just gorgeous, as usual. I LOVE the new Butterfly dreams collection. They are probably my favorite collection, as a whole. I love all of them, so hard to pick a favorite out of the bunch. But, it is my favorite collection. As far as my favorite stamp goes, I would have to say Fairy Dust Tilda is my favorite all time individual stamp. I love how versatile she is, how cute she is, and how she is blowing fairy dust, kisses, good wishes, love, etc. I just love when you can use a stamp for multiple occasions, and Fairy Dust Tilda just always seems to send good will and love to the card receiver. gotta love it! Thanks so much for the chance to win such amazing candy!!!

    ReplyDelete
  81. LOVE the wheelbarrow with tulips you did today!! It's gonna land in my shopping cart soon, I can just feel it! lol
    My favorite Magnolia has got to be Tilda with Cat. It reminds me of my own daughter lugging our cat around :)
    Have a great day, enjoying your beautiful weather! Here in Alberta, Canada that kind of weather is still only a dream ... our kids have a snow day today yet :(

    ReplyDelete
  82. Wow oh wow Suzanne - you really blow me away with your talent! BEAUTIFUL!!! As for my fave Magnolia stamp, it's SO hard to choose just ONE. :) I do LOVE Tilda in Autumn Leaves! It's just such a whimsical stamp and it really makes me smile!

  84. stunning projects. My fave Tilda is Ballerina Tilda I think but it is hard to choose an overall one x

    ReplyDelete
  85. Your box project is beautiful! I love the colors and the embellishments you use.

    It's hard to pick a favorite of the Magnolias, but I would say blowing kisses Tilda.

    Thanks for a chance to win some sweet candy.

    ReplyDelete
  86. I love your candy box. Love the bunny candy lol. My favorite Magnolia is probably Pink Tilda w/ Stripped Tights because buying her gave donation towards breast cancer and also because she looks African American.

  92. Ohhh what a fabulous project, sooo pretty in blue! and I don't think I could pick a favourite ... every time there's a new release they're all my new favourites LOL!

  93. Hi Suzanne,
    Love the coloring and that adorable Tilda with the bunny and look at that bow. The new spring collection is cute, and it's hard to pick a favorite overall, but I love the Tilda with Hearts. It just seems to be what Tilda is all about. Thanks for the chance to win some spring candy and for all the inspiration you provide.

  102. You have certainly made this a challenge. How to pick one favourite out of so many cute images? I choose the Magnolia stamp #201 Tilda Sitting With Hair Bow (but could easily choose hundreds of others!)

  103. This card and gift box are FABULOUS!!! Your work is truly inspiring. Love the colors, love the sparkle. I can't wait to learn from you when you come to Greenville!

  104. Hi Suzanne,
    I absolutely LOVE everything about this card and gift box. Your coloring is inspirational. I cannot wait for you to come to Greenville so I can take your class and finally learn to color. :)
    My favorite Tilda may just have to be the one you used on this set!!! LOVE HER!

  105. Suzanne, your projects are so pretty! I really love the colors you chose. As far as my favorite Tilda- that is tough lol. I guess Sneaky Tilda or Princess Tilda are my faves. Thanks so much for the chance to win. Have a great day!

  106. There are so many darling images but I really like Sitting Simmer Tilda.

  107. I love that box! So pretty! I agree on the Soft Sky. I bought a ton of it before it retired and have been hoarding it. I really hope SU will bring it back!
    It's hard to pick just one favorite
    Tilda - they are all so cute. I think I would have to say that Tilda with Gingerbread heart is my favorite since I use her so much. I love that she can be used for more than just Christmas.

  108. Suzanne, I am catching up with my commenting. I am notiriously late with them...LOL.
    Gosh, your card and gift box are gorgeous. And I'm so glad I've pre-ordered those 2 oh so adorable images--just can't wait for them to arrive. They seem to be made for each other. Such pretty pretty paper--I'm a sucker for beautiful new designs even though I have more than enough paper than I know what to do with--I love the cool colours you used.
    Thanks for asking us to join you in the hop.

    Hugs,
    Norma

  109. I love the two Magnolia stamps you've used and the colors you've chosen! Will have to add them to my wish list. My favorite Magnolia stamp is Happy Tilda. It seems to be the one I go to most often to reflect a celebration.

  111. Hey Suzanne!

    I love all of the Magnolia Stamps! If I have to choose a favorite it would be the Tilda
    #228 BOW SITTING SIDEWAYS. I think this is one you said reminds you of your daughter. I just love her. You can do so many different things with her.

    xoxo,
    Gina

  116. Sorry to hear you were so sick, Suzanne. Hope you are up and running real soon. I love your project...you never cease to amaze!! I love all the Magnolias though I don't have too many.

  117. Your creations are stunning, love the colour scheme and just loving these new stamps (will have to add to my ever growing wish list!)
    As for my favourite ever.... the decision was tough as every time I get a new Tilda that becomes my favourite - Think it has to be Lady Tilda though for being versatile and soooo sophisticated.
    Love Nicola xxx
