Pop Up Cards

Oh boy. Well.... it has been a little while since my last post. Sorry friends. There has been a lot happening here.

More about that another time.

This week at Magnolia Down Under challenges we have a terrific challenge for you - Pop Up Cards!!

This is the first pop up card in this style that I have ever made and let me tell you... I was a little bit unsure how I was going to go. Camilla S has done an amazing tutorial for us and her end result is just amazing.

My pop up card is much simpler... here is the cover

And here is the inside:

It was heaps of fun to make and I am really keen to make more now :o)

Of course if you wanted to make a different style of pop up card, go for it, all types are welcome.

Well... that is it from me today. I have a lot of new work to share with you over the next few days so I will be back.

Big hugs xx

Tilda and her Kookaburra

Hi Friends 

I have another cute Aussie themed card to share with  you today. 

This cute stamp is Tilda with her Kookaburra from the Australian Collection. She has to be one of my favourites from the collection, just adorable!!

All of my flowers are Wild Orchid Crafts. 

Until later in the week, 

Hugs xx

Kangaroo Tilda

Wow, what a great weekend. I spent the weekend in Melbourne at my friend Debbie's house with my good friends Karen, Zoe and Bron. We visited Paperific, a papercrafts show, and Zoe and I attended the Magnolia booth for Make and Takes for the day :) 

It was wonderful to meet John and Barbro at the stand. 

Unfortunately we missed out on meeting Pauline, she was out with her family sightseeing before they had the long flight home. 

(I hope you all had a wonderful visit to Australia! Come back very soon xx)

I inked up Kangaroo Tilda for my card. Magnolia released this adorable stamp, along with some cute other Aussie themed stamps just in time for their visit to Australia. 

I have another one to share with you, but I'll do that tomorrow. 

And now for some photos of us all at Paperific!!

It was a brilliant weekend and wonderful to meet my friends who I had only previously spoken to on the internet and on the phone. Thanks Debbie for looking after us all,  you are the "Hostess with the Mostest".
