I did a REGULAR card guys, yup i did.It was weird i tell ya. I decided to go with non traditional colors and used #3009 Christmas morning Tilda and you could find her HERE . I also changed up a notch and did distress coloring what ya think? OK I will send you on your way.Up next is Suzie. Thanks for your visit and please come again.Chao!(waving with my left because the right don't work right now)

A special thank you to my buddy Debra from Australia(waving!) look look i used the lace you sent me.THANK YOU MUCH!!!

I cut out my flowers from my cricut and embossed them and i just top them with a silk flower.The leaves were cut out too from my cricut.

UPDATE!!! I just realised a big part of my posting has disappeared???!!! ok that was weird!! I had posted a quick story and it disappeared.I had said that i was going to post early because from last time i had problems posting my Christmas card.I was just going on that it was a bad day for me that particular morning.Which brought me back to yesterday morning! I had a very very bad morning /day.I took my son to school and keep in mind it was snowing hard over here.So any how i was taking him to school and as i was walking back.Guess what!!!! (THIS IS EMBARRASSING) I fell right on my side on my right wrist.It was a bit funny because i fell like the guy from the movie,"HomeAlone".Where the robber is trying to walk up the stairs.Oh yeah he did like a funny skid and then Pam!BAM!!! AND WHAM!!! Yeah and so there i go walking back to my home all sore and all.I get there and my keys are not in my pockets!!They slipped out when i fell.So there i go again walking back to the crime scene.They were on the ground barely visible and buried in the snow.I didn't fall that time. I went back home and just relieved to be out of the snow.That's why i had said," i was waving with my other hand because the right hand didn't work right now".lol!!! Ohh what a morning i had yesterday.Today I'm now sick for coming out yesterday. SO PLEASE FORGIVE ME IF I CAN'T COMPLETE THE HOP.I did a couple blogs but my face is so congested.I feel horrible!okay sorry for witting a novel.

Christmas All Year Long at Magnolia-licious ..... Sepia style:)

Good Morning everyone !! Today were going to brighten up your Monday with this out of the ordinary hop LOL! This has to be for us ladies that couldn't get our Christmas cards finished on time or even if you want an early head start for the coming year. I think it's a fabulous idea. Every 25Th we will have a blog hop to present our Christmas cards. I hope you have enjoyed it so far. Your almost towards the end.If your coming from Peggie's then your in the right order:) Today i decided to do something out of my comfort zone LOL! One it's a side step card LOL! I never done them before but geez it was a challenge at first. When it was all scored it was easy peacy LOL!! Second i TRIED doing it monochrome style and i think it ended up looking like sepia HAHAHA!! Well after the first colored image i said i like it so i kept doing it. I colored them with my letrasets. It did end up with a distressed effect which i did like so I'm happy. I just need to practice more though on blending. I got a good tip from a lady named Debbie( The Crafty Cuttings of Wiccababe ) she designs for Passion for promarkers. So thanks to her i was brave enough to give it a try. I gave the girls a pinch of rose on their cheeks. Sideways Maggie , I'm not sure if she's a dalecarlia girl or not to be honest with you. I know the other one is Dalecarlia coat Maggie. I was so tempted to keep on giving them more pink lol! I HAD TO HOLD MYSELF BACK LOL! I didn't see these images at Diana's store right now but if your interested email her she should be able to help you. I did see winter night background there now though. Diana is constantly stocking up so I'm sure you will be able to find them soon. Oh another thing in honor of our Christmas hop, Diana would be putting a Christmas stamp on sale on the first of each month. If I'm not mistaken she has Holly letter and i believe Santa's helper on sale now. Even after her great prices so don't walk RUN by over there.

OK ENOUGH of my blah blah. This is my card i came up with , please be gentle on me and tell me what you think??(closing my eyes)



Here is a closer look of each

and when it's closed

I hope your having fun and now it's time to jump right into the so talented Tracey Gordon at Tray's Spot . I thank you for taking the time to do this with us and enjoy the rest of your day. Feel free to leave me some loooovvvee i LOVE SOME LOVINNN HAHA!
