Magnolia Memory Dies

Fun Fold Fridays – Flip Fold Card

April 16, 2021 · Leave a Comment

Happy Friday!

What a dreary ~~day~~ week we are having! Perfect for staying indoors and making stuff!

Since it Fun Fold Friday! I am not going to disappoint today!

I have what seems to be a regular card –

Until you start to open it –

And move the the flaps –

Isn’t this just soo pretty??

I really really love this generously sized magnolia stamp from the Good Morning Magnolia* stamp set –

Sadly, it is retiring soon as well as these matching Magnolia Memory Dies* –

These dies were originally $35, now they are on sale for $8.75! Such a bargain!

This paper is retired, Magnolia Lane Bulk Designer Series paper. It was on the Clearance Rack the other day for a few days. I snagged some and got to creating, then it sold out. Since this is such a great fold and it was already create, I just posted it anyway!

I started with a full sheet of card stock, 8 1/2″ x 11″, scored as if you were making a portrait card, 4 1/2″, and a landscape card, 5 1/2″. Basically a + on the sheet!

I removed one of the rectangles, plus a 1/2″, and a 1/2″ off the end. –

I rotated the piece of card stock, made my folds, then got to decorating!

I added the Designer Series Paper to the card –

Front piece is 5 1/4″ x 4.

Inside first flap is 5 1/4″ x 3″.

Inside left flap, 5 1/4″ x 3″, and to write on, 5″ x 3 3/4″.

So easy! And so pretty!

This will be one of the cards for my bonus freebie for placing a $50 (before tax and shipping) order this month! Contact me for details!

What do you think of this pretty fold? I’d love to know! Leave me a comment!

Happy Try Stampin’ on Tuesday!

Got another great challenge for you today!

I incorporated both the ‘more than one fold’ and the layout –

Yes, another fun fold –

Fully opened –

Soo sweet, right?

I started with a strip of Peony Garden* Designer Series Paper, it’s retiring soon. You can get three cards from one 12″ x 12″ sheet! I so love this idea!

I die cut one edge using the aslo retiring Magnolia Memory Dies* –

What a fantastic buy at $8.75, they were $35.00! These dies pair with the Good Morning Magnolia* stamp set, also retiring –

I used the Hello sentiment in a Trio of Tags die cut. I added a die cut flower and leaves on the outside from the same dies.

Such a sweet card – and soo easy!

Lots of items are retiring this month and the Clearance Rack has been updated.

Happy Try Stampin’ on Tuesday!

Here is our newest two-week challenge –

Optional Theme : Christmas in July

Perfect!

I combined a few stamps creating this beauty –

Beautiful, right? I am soo excited how this turned out!

I started by stamping the largest flower from the Good Morning Magnolia stamp in Shaded Spruce and again in Real Red. I colored the leaves with the light Soft Sea Foam Blends and the flower with the retired light Pink Pirouette Blends. Framelit cutting both after coloring. I hand cut the rest of the flower.

I used dimensionals to adhere the flower to the leaves.

I also used the Buffalo Check stamp in Real Red on the strip of Real Red card stock.

I finished off the card by stamping the Merry Christmas sentiment from the Merry Christmas to All stamp set in Shaded Spruce.

That simple. This beautiful!

Magnolia Thank You

Welcome to our Thursday Create with Connie and Mary sketch challenge!

Here is our newest color challenge –

Fresh. Bright. Cheerful.

I went a summer-ish, sweet, thank you card –

I started with die cutting these beautiful flowers from the Magnolia Memory die set. I loved using both the inside pieces and the outer parts of the flowers creating this card. I haven’t seen these used much.

I used the Basket Weave strip down the center of the card, cutting a pretty decorative edge along the bottom. The flowers fit just above it nicely.

I added the sentiment from Magnolia Blooms, punched using the Timeless Label punch. I punched it twice to shorten it.

What do you think? Isn’t it pretty?

We Create – Basics Blog Hop

June 1, 2019 · 5 Comments

Welcome to my second blog hop for the day!

Theme this month is neutral colors.

I’ve been seeing several cards made using Press’n Seal, I think they are called floating cards. I decide to try it using new products and my own version of the technique –

I created my version by stamping, coloring with Blends, the dies cutting the flowers.

I arranged them on my base around the edge. When I liked the placement, I adhered them with Dimensionals.

I trimmed the over hanging part of the flower.

I added the single, non-cut flower, then stamped the repeated ‘Hello’ sentiment.

It was done slightly backwards, but, it totally worked! It’s beautiful!

Happy Tuesday Try Stampin’ on Tuesday!

Here is our latest two-week challenge –

Optional Theme : Texture

Well…..I forgot to add texture other than what is in the pattern of the Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper –

Beautiful, right? This is a new suite of products called, Magnolia Lane.

I stamped the magnolia bud from the Good Morning Magnolia stamp set.

I colored it with a Mossy meadow Stampin’ Write marker and Blends. I used the Ivory Blends and then the Color Lifter to soften the color of the flower. The stem is Bronze.

I cut the flower bud using one of the dies from the Magnolia Memory.

I added a strip of the Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper. It was just enough to tie in all the colors!
