PRETTY IN PINK!

 For my DT card, I used Tilda with Daisy from the Sweet Crazy Love collection that was released early this year.  And just for fun...I used my phone camera to take the photo and I think it came out pretty good!
This is one of my favorite Tildas.  I love her hair.

Here, I took another photo using my camera.

Turning Leaves

Hello everybody! I hope y'all are enjoying the summer or whatever is left of it! 

 I'd like to share some photos of the new Magnolia Ink Magazine Turning Leaves.  I got this in the mail two days ago, and I've been doing my happy dance since then. My cheeks are hurting from having this smile (crazy grin LOL) on my face.

This is the first time for me to have my projects published as part of the design team! (I had 1 project published when I won one of the Magnolia Ink contests.) I'm so excited about this issue and it makes me really proud to be part of the team. I still consider myself as a newbie...not only with Magnolia, but also with crafting, stamping, card making, and coloring as a whole.  It was September last year when I tried  stamping and everything just went on from there. And I'm really really thankful!

Back to the magazine...

The card on the cover is made by Debbie Dolphins.

 On pages  30-31, you will find my Autumn Fun banner.

 My Autumn Wind Shaker card  is on page 40.

Thank you so much for following me and for visiting my blog, for your lovely comments  and words of encouragements.  You have been an inspiration to me from the day I started blogging.

And again, from the bottom of my heart

THANK YOU!

Tilda's Family 2

This is my 2nd Tilda's Family card. The first one I made can be found HERE. I used the same images but masked it on the opposite side. I colored this image over a month ago and I almost forget about it.  Good thing I had some new papers that matched the image.

This card is on it's way to California...to a good friend of mine 

who just gave birth to a healthy baby boy.

 In the inside of the card is a tag and at the back of the tag is where I wrote my message.

 

One more look...

Thanks for dropping by!

Hugs,

Mae
