Another Tilda Comin' at Ya!!
Anyway, I loved the two images (rocking chair and the Tilda), so I wanted to do them justice by pairing them with something. My grosgrain ribbon serves as a chair rail for the room and separation of the wallpaper. And, as luck would have it, this is one of my favorite Thoreau quotes, so it was kismet!
I hope you all had a spectacular day. I was able to see my mom today. My parents live 12 hours away, but for two months in the winter, they stay in Myrtle Beach, SC, which is only about 3 1/2 hours away. Well, my mom is a quilter and she has made some quilting friends down South. They take a bus trip to Mary Jos in Gastonia, NC (an incredible fabric store like no other) every year, and we go and meet up with her for lunch and shopping (it's a half hour drive for us!). Meredith was so excited to see her Mimi! Today was fun, and I picked up some awesome ribbon and lace for future cards!
Card Details:
Stamps: unknown Tilda and rocking chair by Magnolia
Paper: Cosmo Cricket DP; Chocolate Chip and Close to Cocoa CS by Stampin' Up
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
Accessories: chipboard and quote by Cosmo Cricket; SU ribbon; Copic markers; brads

Love is in the Chocolates!
This Magnolia card is another one made from the images that I colored last weekend. It's fun to have an image already to go when you sit down to put a card together. Being that I seem to have more paper than a well-stocked scrapbook store, there is no worries about finding some to "match"! I did, however, use scraps from the Sweet Talk line from K&Company. It's a use your scraps weekend, so dig them out and use them!

Roses on Paper #30 - sketch

Won't You Be Mine?
Today's card is an image that I received from my friend Heather...she seriously hooked me up with the Lily and Billy stamps to try. I took many images with me to the beach this past weekend, and I just colored! This is one of those. I wanted to use a few craft store finds on here. The charm says, "Be mine" but you can't see it well in the picture. The two ribbons are from Basic Grey. I usually list my copic marker colors, but I didn't keep very good track of them while I was coloring this weekend. I used the following challenges to showcase the image:
Card Details:
Paper: Bittersweet by Basic Grey; Pink Pirouette and Riding Hood Red by Stampin' Up
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
Accessories: Copic markers; Basic Grey ribbon; heart charm; rhinestone stickers; EK Sucess border punch; Nestabilities; rosettes

My Craft Room EXPLODED!!
No, seriously, it looks like a bomb went off. I get something cleaned up, and another part of the room becomes a disaster.
So, today is clean up day!!
Anyone else out there cleaning their creative space?
