Magnolia Lane Memories & More - simple greeting card

Last week I shared a card that I made with the gorgeous new Good Morning Magnolia Bundle and today's card also uses products from the Magnolia Lane Suite - the Magnolia Lane Memories & More cards.

Although designed to fit into the Memories & More memory-keeping albums, these cards are brilliant for making quick and easy but gorgeous greeting cards.

The Magnolia Lane Memories & More cards are great for making quick and easy but gorgeous greeting cards

In addition to the pack of cards, I used a little bit of Petal Pink cardstock, Early Espresso ink, a base card of Crumb Cake, some Basic Self-Adhesive Sequins and the new Stitched Nested labels dies.  The greeting is from the coordinating Good Morning Magnolia stamp set.

Products from the new Annual Catalogue will be available from 4th June 2019 to 2nd June 2020.

Thank you for visiting.
'Til next time!

It's easy to make a stunning and dramatic card with the Good Morning Magnolia bundle

I have chosen to use the Good Morning Magnolia Bundle and coordinating Magnolia Lane Ribbon.

The bundle represents a saving of 10% and comprises the Good Morning Magnolia stamp set and coordinating Magnolia Memory dies.  These form part of the stunning Magnolia Lane Suite which also includes the ribbons, Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper, Magnolia 3D Embossing Folder, Memories & More card packs and embellishments.  The possibilities are endless!

I stamped the magnolia image with Stazon and then watercoloured it with Rich Razzleberry, Blackberry Bliss, Garden Green, So Saffron and Soft Suede inks before cutting it out with the coordinating die.

I trimmed the bottom of a Mint Macaron layer with one of the Magnolia Memory dies and then stamped the flourish with Garden Green ink.

Having added the ribbons, I attached the magnolia - using a Stampin' Dimensional towards the top to add some depth.  I then added the Blackberry Bliss layer and attached it all to the Mint Macaron card front.

I added a Stampin' Dimensional towards the top of the flower to add dimension to the
stunning Good Morning Magnolia image

The greeting is stamped with Rich Razzleberry ink and cut out with one of the Stitched Shapes dies.  

Lastly, I added some of the Basic Adhesive-Backed Sequins.

Stampin' Dreams Blog Hop - Annual Catalogue Sneak Peek - Butterfly Wishes

Welcome to the monthly Stampin' Dreams Blog Hop.  You are currently visiting Stephanie Fischer (The Crafty Thinker) from Australia.

Our theme this month is to provide sneak peeks from the new 2019-2020 Annual Catalogue, which takes effect from 3rd June.  

I've chosen to use the Butterfly Wishes stamp set Stitched Nested Labels and Perennial Essence Designer Series Paper.

The beautiful new Perennial Essence paper and Butterfly Wishes stamp set

I inked up the entire stamp with Blushing Bride ink and then added Mint Macaron and Soft Suede to the branches and leaves before stamping onto Whisper White cardstock.

TIP:  Breath heavily onto the inked stamp before stamping down onto the card.  The moisture in your "huff" will be sufficient to ensure that the ink is activated.

Give more depth to the butterfly by adding some lighter wings with Stampin' Dimensionals

I stamped the butterfly onto a scrap of Whisper White card using Cherry Cobbler and then, without re-inking, stamped again for a lighter shade.

I then cut out the entire darker butterfly and just the wings of the lighter one which I adhered to the darker butterfly using glue and bits of Stampin' Dimensionals before gluing the finished butterfly to the cardfront.

If you live in Australia and don't currently have a Stampin' Up Demonstrator, contact me for your copy of the new catalogue.  

The following products will be available for purchase from my online store from 3rd June 2019:
