Wow Make ' n Take 3D Card , Pinkies Team Event And The Stampers Showcase!

I am so excited to be part of the Stampers Showcase Blog Hop and very honoured to be in amongst some very talented stampers from around the world! If you are starting here or continuing to hop, hello and welcome to my blog. 

For our hop this month the theme is 3D! The perfect excuse to show you this fun "springy" card I made using the gorgeous Magnolia Lane Suite.

I made this card for a WOW Make n Take for a team event this weekend! We had a whole weekend of crafting, laughing and sharing inspiration and projects. This weekend was run by my lovely team leader for our Pinkies Team. There were around 50 of us and I was absolutely delighted to take some of my own Inkredible Team members along too!

It's a fun springy card but folds flat to go into an envelope.

The magnolias are stamped and cut out using the dies and coloured in with Blends - my favourite kind of colouring medium right now. I used a little Flirty Flamingo at the base of the petals, then Petal Pink, leaving the tips white. The leaves are coloured in Mossy Meadow. 

Watch out for a YouTube video coming up in the next few days showing how it's made.

I can't wait to see what all the other people taking part in the hop have come up with for the 3D Project  theme. There are some super talented people taking part so grab a cuppa and hop around for some fabulous inspiration.

Good Morning Magnolia Wedding Acceptance. Inspire Create Challenge #45

Hello, welcome to my blog. I am just loving the new catalogue that has just launched and specifically the Magnolia Lane Suite. It's beautiful and with this week bringing us an embossing theme for the Inspire Create Challenge I couldn't resist using the Magnolia stamps.

Aren't they stunning, I took inspiration from the Kraft Magnolia Lane cards we have. They come with silver frames and wouldn't work for what I wanted so I recreated the idea with Crumb Cake card instead. I added a Petal Pink Layer underneath and used one of the dies to make a pretty border at the bottom in Petal Pink also.

My hubby is very excited to have been asked to be best man for a dear friend later in the summer and I'm also excited to be going. Maybe a new hat is in order! I've made this card for them to accept and say thank you for the invitation to their wedding. I hope they like it.

Heat embossing is totally my thing. I just love to see the powder melt and go all glossy. It was one of the first techniques I used years ago when I first started crafting and it never gets old. The small magnolia stamp is just stunning embossed in silver. Quite an easy card to make really. A few layers of card, some embossing and a Thanks sentiment with a little of the beautiful new ribbon to finish it off. I LOVE this font! I hope you like the card. Do leave me a comment, I love to read them.

You can hop over to the Inspire Create Challenge here and see what all the other awesome Design Team members have come up with for the Embossing Challenge. You can get lots of inspiration and join along too. We'd love to have you and it's great fun.

Here are all the products I have used on my card, including the gorgeous Magnolia stamps. Clickable images will take you straight to my online shop.

Hello Magnolia Lane Featuring Magnolia Lane Cards And Envelopes.

Hello and welcome, thanks for stopping by. Our new Annual Stampin' Up Catalogue launched this week and I have a long list of favourites already. The Magnolia Lane has to be up there.

I wanted a sweet card to say hello that wouldn't take long to make,  so reaching for the ready to go Magnolia Lane card bases and matching lined envelopes was the obvious choice and a great excuse to get playing with the stamps, dies and papers again.

You can see how I made it here in my YouTube tutorial.

I hope you liked the video. Do give me a thumbs up and subscribe if you do, oh and don't forget to press the little bell for notification of future videos.

You can stamp, colour and cut out the Magnolia using the dies or as I did here, you can use the die to cut the magnolias from the patterned paper. A little heat embossing, layering and some of the Mossy Meadow Bakers Twine and the card was done.

Here are all the products used to make the card with clickable images to my online shop.

I'd love to hear if you liked the card so leave me a comment at the bottom and If you'd like a catalogue, let me know and I will get one out to you.

I am of course, very grateful for your custom if you shop with me. If you shop with me online, don't forget to use the hostess code if your order is between £20 - £150 for a gift from me.

Good Morning Magnolia Fancy Fold Card - Stampers Showcase Blog Hop

I am so excited to be part of the Stampers Showcase Blog Hop and very honoured to be in amongst some very talented stampers from around the world! If you are starting here or continuing to hop, hello and welcome to my blog. 

For our hop this month the theme is Fancy Folds florals and the perfect excuse to pull out this gorgeous brand new bundle Good Morning Magnolia

How stunning is this large Magnolia stamp?! I have stamped it in Black Memento and coloured in with Blend Markers, Petal Pink with a tiny bit of Flirty Flamingo at the base of the petals. The tips I have left white and the leaves are coloured in Mossy Meadow.

So how is it a Fancy Fold card?

A Z Fold card is actually quite simple to construct.

With lots of panels for stamping and creativity. The small magnolias here were stamped and coloured just like the large one but there are two on the panel that says "Thinking of You" that stand out a little. That's because they are cut out of the patterned paper that goes with this bundle using the matching die! How cool is that!

Before the scored base layers were glued together I stamped the large magnolia in Mossy Meadow ink onto the back so that there is detail from each angle.

I hope you like my fancy fold card using the new Good Morning Magnolia Bundle. It's gorgeous and will be available very soon from June 4th in the new Annual Catalogue.

I can't wait to see what all the other people taking part in the hop have come up with for the Springtime Floral theme. There are some super talented people taking part so grab a cuppa and hop around for some fabulous inspiration.
