A Little Yummy...

Every year, I give myself some birthday presents.
This year is no exeption.
I am in love with the newest line of Magnolia stamps, A little yummy. It's the first line I like all the stamps off, so as it's almost my birthday, I just thought of giving myself some of these stamps...hehe...
I just love Magnolia and this line... wow... I also love to cook and make cakes etc, so this line is just perfect for me! Already got Magnolia's Fall kit and the kit is the same line as these stamps. Perfect!

Here's a photo of my birthdaypresents I gave myself this year...
Some Magnolia-stamps, a HouseMouse stamp and the Basic Grey paperpads Indian Summer and Eskimo Kisses.

Did a pretty good job, eh?? *lol*

Gotta go... watch a blogcandy coming real, real soon!!

Have to bake some more cakes and quiches *yummy!!*

Weddingcard

One of my nieces is going to get married this Friday, so it deserves a card.
Kept this one very simple, but I so love it!! I think it's in real life much better than this photo by the way...
Made some more weddingcards this weekend as I realized I don't have any :)

And... keep your eyes open for some blogcandy the coming days ;)

Cardstock, stamp and ribbon: Stampin'Up; Ink: Memento; Stickles: Ranger; Copics

7. I just love London!! If I'm winning the Staatsloterij I will defenately buy a house there. Just love that city. It's my 2nd home!!

Now I have to give this award to 7 others.

Magnolia Summerbox

Today I gave myself a day off. Just a few washes and for the rest I really enjoyed myself making this project (and some more cards...)
Had this idea when I was shopping with my dad for a new bedroom closet and saw this box.
Will make these for every season. Just so loved making it!
Have to put a nice photo in there instead of the stamped image I think.

Anyways... back to the item....
Here's a close-up of Surfer Tilda. Love this stamp a lot! It's so versitle! You can use it on cards, and, altered items, like this box.
Coloured her with my Copics. Just love, love, love them!!


And what's a summer without seashells... so they defenately needed to be in my box.


And here's the Summerbox I made today... Love the shells and other Summer-items a lot.

And another detail... Surfer Edwin :)
