Hi, Pi here!
As a newbie to Magnolia stamps I'm covering new grounds - and I love it! They are so cute and such quality stamps. This adorable guy is Edwin and he wants a hug:)
The paper on the card is from Bo Bunnys "welcome home" 6x6 paper pad. Perfect for card making!
I have layered the design paper on blue and green card stock. I tried (I say tried because I have mixed feelings about the result, on one hand I'm really unhappy since the sizes came out all wrong. On the other, I'm really pleased they are all round... Let me tell you it was not as easy as I imagined - LOL!) to make my own pearls with one of those pens which you press lightly and something similar to glue forms a flat back pearl.
You can tell I'm inspired by the month of October and made a ribbon embellishment in brown instead of pink. The key charms is from my stash and the tab is a die by Tim Holtz. I stamped "Hugs" with an alphabet set I've had for a while. Tied together with some twine and hot glued to the ribbon.
Once again I used this gorgeous super dimensional paper flower, coming soon in the store. I sprayed it with perfect pearl and is so fantastically shimmery, its a shame I'm not able to capture it in the photos! I teamed it with a cherry blossom and a leaf sprayed with LSG a bit ó bubbly with go perfect with the paper and home made stick pin. Of course I can not do without the Magnolia chandelier garland - I used white, but they come in many superb colours.
| The image is coloured with a mix of promarkers and copic alcohol pens |
Thanks for visiting!!

Sending Warm Fuzzies
4:00 AM
Good morning, Steph here and it's starting to get colder here in New York. I find that's the perfect time to start Christmas cards.
I love my Magnolia stamps and the Rubber Buggy has lots in stock, and more coming. Kellie sent me this beauty and I loved coloring her with Copic Markers.
Using cardstock and some awesome Magnolia papers - Chandelier garland and New England Stripe, I created an envelope card. This is not too complicated, but you do need to pull out your Scor-pal for those lines perfectly. I cut 2 pieces of black cardstock each 4 1/2" x 11". Scoring each at the 5 1/2" spot, I folded them to create the cards. I then adhered one piece behind the other creating a 3 sided card, then I cut the outer pieces on an angle to create the front flaps and added pattern paper on top.

I cut white cardstock to fit inside and stamped my sentiment on top. The stamped image was added to an oval placed across the card where I also added some red and white
Chandelier Garland.

Cocco With Present
12:00 AM
Hello from Indiana! I'm so excited you stopped by to check out the designs from our team. Haven't they been great? Kellie has been a dear to work with and has oodles of great products in her new store. (More is coming, too)!!! When she told us our design team packages were coming in the mail, it was like waiting for Christmas. LOL!
This little guy is Cocco. So cute! I had watched a tutorial on "dot coloring" with Copics and thought he needed to be colored that way. So, I gave it a world. Need a little bit more practice, but was pretty pleased with the first attempt.
Products found at The Rubber Buggy:
Image-Cocco with Present
Paper-Magnolia Red Ornaments
Flowers-Coming Soon!
Bling Garland-Coming Soon!
Thank you for visiting.

Sitting Angel Tilda
6:00 AM
Hi Everyone. Dawn here on this fabulous Friday with my first post as a DT member at The Rubber Buggy. I am thrilled to be here. I was sent a wonderful assortment of products that are in the Store.
Here is my first project:
My card is 6" square. I started out with a piece of card stock that was 6 x 12 and scored it at 6 and folded along the scored line. I stamped my image using Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto some Cryogen CS, I then stamped her a second time to create a mask so I could stamp the Bench for her to sit one. I then colored Tilda in using copics. I used a die and cut her out. I also added a border that was punched using a border punch. I attached some ribbon and a bow and a charm. I also added some Prima roses in a teal and white..
A closer look at my colored image:
Copics used E11, E00, E000, R20, E47, E44, E43, E42, E40, BG72, BG10, BG0000, E27, E25, E23, E21, C3, C1, C0
I had fun creating this card because Tilda is what got me started in stamping and using Copics. I am so glad to be able to create some great projects using some great products. Check out the STORE to see what is available.
See you all back next Friday with some more inspiration. The challenge blog will soon be up and running, so keep checking back to see what awesome challenges we have in store for you all.....
Happy Stamping!!!!!

Christmas is just around the corner...
12:01 AM
Hey Everyone,
Jas here :) I'm excited to share my first card that I made using The Rubber Buggy products. Thanks Kellie for choosing me as one of your design team member. I chose Christmas theme for this card and I used the Magnolia Cocco with Present rubber stamped image. I colored the adorable bear with my copic markers and then added shimmers on the image. For the background paper I used the Magnolia papers and for the embellishments I used doilie, tulle, flowers and chandelier garland. I hope you like this card that I made :)

Roses for you
6:00 AM
Good morning, Steph here with my first post as a DT member at the Rubber Buggy. I am truly thrilled to be here. Kellie sent me a wonderful assortment of products from the store and I'm pleased to share my first project.
I created a 5 1/2" square card by cutting cardstock 5 1/2" x 11" and using my Scor-Pal to create the perfect fold. Using "I Forgot", a Bild Malarna stamp, I colored her with Copic Markers and then cut her out.
I wanted the stamp to sit prominently so I placed her on top of a double oval for a little dimension. The paper roses are gorgous and were begging for a little color, so I lightly inked the edges with brown ink then added some glitter.
Here's a look at the glittered roses. I love how irridiscent it appears on the roses.
Supplies:
Stamp: Bild Malarna "I Forgot" - coming soon
Pattern paper: Magnolia Sweet Rainbow
Magnolia Ice Princess
Paper flowers - coming soon
Sprinkles Chunky Glitter: Clearsnap
Cardstock: Worldwin
Die cuts: Spellbinders
Ink: Memento, Clearsnap
Markers: Copic Markers
Scoring Tool: Scor-Pal
Don't forget to check out all the fun goodies in the store and be sure to stop by every day to see all the great projects the design team has been working on.

Hi!
So glad you found your way to The Rubber Buggy's blog.
This is my first post ever as part of a design team and I had a blast!
I'm Pi and I'm from Sweden, Gothenburg. Gothenburg is app 1h drive from Borås, where Magnolia is manufactured. Yet I have never used any of their products?!
So imagine my excitement when my DT package arrived and I found this little qutie - LOL!
I know it's October and we have both Halloween and Thanksgiving to go, but I could not resist making a Christmas card.
I coloured my stamped image with alcohol pens and teamed the Magnolia paper with some more Swedes, lovely vintage brown from Maja Design. Her little sign is paper pieced as I coloured it with distress ink in burshed corduroy and edged with vintage photo. By accident I also had to paper piece her head, but it turned out great as her plaids got some dimension:)
I had super fun colouring all the details on this stamp and I tried a new colour combo on her hair.
Kellie sent me some wonderful paper flowers that I sprayed with perfect pearls, there are so much shimmer I need to learn how to take pictures that shows it properly.
For the Magnolia paper red ornaments I got the idea to make a Christmas bauble. I used the smallest round fragment charm from Tim Holtz and backed it with the paper. Then I dipped the top in distress crackle paint, rock candy and sprinkled some crystal glitter by Martha Stewart to make it look like frost. It worked and the crackles were really effective, unfortunately the crackle paint has a hard time staying on the fragment charm, but it turned out to be very fragile - just like ice:)
I also sprinkled some crystal glitter on the Magnolia chandelier garlands (that I don't think I now could live without!) to "frost" them.
In my stash I also had some acrylic pointy charm that I turned into an icicle by dipping it in distress crackle paint and again sprinkle with glitter.
I had so much fun making this card and I hope left you with some inspiration. Tomorrow Steph have something gorgeous to show you, so be sure to stop by again and later next week you must also return for a super fun challenge.
Thank you for visiting
