Froggie, christening card

Here is a card that I made for my cousin's little boy christening ...

I made his 'book' using the froggie from Magnolia over, and over again!

It was such a cute design to use.

Long time no show!

Well as it's been since March that I've shown you the additions to my collection ...

I thought I'd do that now.

Back in March I was at CD 20, and now I'm up to CD 34!

So here goes:

... hmmm aren't they gorgeous! LOL

I've also been inventive and trying to find a new way to keep my ProMarkers while I work ... the envelop storage units are great for storage, but not so convenient when I need to colour ....

but I think this will work for now ...

Blog award

Yesterday I received a blog award from my friend Panagiota.

Thank you so much dear, this is the first blog award for this blog! :)

I'm suppose to pass it on to 12 people, but because it's so hard to choose,

I'll just give it to all of you! :)

Calendar Easel Cards

I idea behind this was inspired by a challenge over at ScrapFit Forum ... my friend Katie from the US convinced me to join ... I like the idea so much that I made three of them yesterday and plan to make more!

Tildas are coloured in with ProMarkers, and I've used Unity stamps ...

Basic Grey papers ... those 6x6 paper pads are a lifesaver!

My Magnolia Calendar

I usually have a Calendar hanging on my wall, usually a freebie from a Stitch magazine .... but this year I didn't buy any magazines ... so decided to make a desktop one for me ....

And since my beloved Magnolias are just perfect for this ... I thought I'd get creative ...

so Here it goes ... I've bound it with my Bind-it-all ...

Have coloured all the images with my ProMarkers ...

Have used Nellie's frames to diecut Basic Grey Nook and Cranny as backgrounds ...

On the rear of each month I've added a to do list that I make at this place ...

Also added the month again as the holidays and saint days are marked ...

Just have photographed the rear of January to show you!
