Here is another gorgeous card using the new, Online Exclusive, Magnolia Mood. I paired it with the dies also from the, Online Exclusive, Garden Meadow Dies. This time I added a touch of color to the die cut with Blending Brushes and a little ink. You should really give this one a try! Don't forget to check out the awesome offerings in the Online Exclusive Store!! There are some wonderful items there!
Measurements:
- Petal Pink: 1/2 sheet
- Very Vanilla: 3 7/8" x 5 1/8", 1/4 sheet
- Flowering Zinnias DSP (N) (OE): 3 1/2" x 4 3/4"
To Make This Card:
- Die cut "arch: from front, Very Vanilla layer. (I saved the insert for my sentiment.)
- Next, emboss this piece with the "cross-hatch" Basics 3D Embossing Folder with the "arch" removed. Add to the folded Petal Pink card with Dimensionals.
- Now, die cut the "arch", again, from the dotted DSP. You will use the INSIDE of this piece. Adhere this, flush, with the card on the inside of the Vanilla "arch".
- Now, die cut the large, detailed "magnolia" from the 1/4 sheet of Vanilla.
- Add a little Petal Pink ink to the "flower", and a little Old Olive ink to the leaves with a Blending Brush. I uses the larger size, but you won't have so much stray ink with the smaller one. Lesson learned!! Add a little Wink of Stella to the "flower".
- Add Dimensionals behind the "flower" petals and attach to the card, as shown.
- Cut a rectangle from the Vanilla insert. Stamp sentiment in Basic Gray ink. Attach to card as shown.
- Finish with a Petal Pink Stripe bow, and scattered Champagne Rhinestones.
