Magnolia Blooms on Country Floral

I was so inspired by the sketch for yesterday's Stampin' Dreams Blog Hop that I made another, feminine, version.

Magnolia Blooms stamp set and Country Floral 3D embossing folder

This card features the Magnolia Blooms stamp set and Country Floral 3D embossing folder.

Having embossed the Basic Gray card, I gently swiped over it with my Versamark pad which created the deeper shade on the raised embossing. I then cut it diagonally (in keeping with the sketch) and arranged it onto a piece of Petal Pink card. The base card is Petal Pink with a layer of Gray Granite.

The banners are off-cuts of Gray Granite cardstock. The ends were trimmed with the help of the Banner Triple Punch.

Using Petal Pink ink, I stamped the image onto a small leftover square of Petal Pink cardstock. To make things a little easier for my ageing eyes, I used Blackberry Bliss and Pretty Peacock Stampin' Write markers to reinforce the lines on the leaves and the flower centre. Then I used Stampin' Blends alcohol markers to colour the image (Rococo Rose, Petal Pink, Mint Macaron, Pretty Peacock, Rich Razzleberry and Blackberry Bliss).

The greeting is included in the Magnolia Blooms stamp set but I rearranged it into a linear formation. To do this, I used a Basic Gray Stampin' Write Marker to ink only the word "Thank" and stamped it. Having cleaned and dried the stamp, I used the same marker to ink the word "you" and stamped it next to the first word. Easy!

Thank you for visiting.
'Til next time!
