EMBOSSED AND WATERCOLORED - LOVELY MAGNOLIAS

Image
Hello, Stampers! I'm so glad the Magnolia 3D Embossing Folder is not retiring.  I embossed watercolor card stock with the embossing folder and then just colored it with ink pads and here and there with Stampin' Blends.  It's hard to tell here, but the turned up edges of the magnolias are colored Soft Sea Foam and I added Clear Wink of Stella to the flower centers.  The DSP is Magnolia Lane. I did run into one problem.  Watercolor card stock has a mind of it's own and/or I embossed it too deeply - I ran it through the Big Shot several times.  I had some problems with warping, so if I try it again, I may try going light on the water and using Shimmery White CS instead.  The background is a combination of Blushing Bride and Petal Pink.  The leaves were die-cut with the Magnolia Memories Dies.  The sentiment is embossed on Mossy Meadow and is from a very old set I go to often, Warmest Regards.  More colors and supplies are below.

LILYPAD LAKESIDE SILHOUETTE CARD - SEPTEMBER STAMP CAMP

Image
Hi, Stampers!     As promised I have more information for you on these cards from my September Stamp Camp.  Stampers had their choice or mix-it up.  The top layout was the favorite.  Let's get started. Happy Stampin’! Sue Duffy ~ mandsduffy@comcast.net       P.S.   There is a new Host Code on my sidebar.   

SIMPLE WATERCOLOR MAGNOLIA and a Reminder

Image
Hi, Stampers!      I hope you enjoy a pleasant Labor Day and that you have lovely weather for what is considered summer's last hurrah.  :-(   But, one good thing about September, besides that it's usually a beautiful month, it's Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalog time!  The HC is open for business on Wednesday, September 4.    Okay, to this card...      I saw the original of this card on Pinterest by Debbie Henderson - I like hers better, but thought I'd share mine, anyway, 'cause it's still pretty, I think.  I don't think you can exactly duplicate with water-coloring - either you've got it (the talent) or you don't - I'm somewhere in between I think.      Anyway, click here or the photo for the details .  TFL Happy Stampin’!

STAMPIN' UP! MAGNOLIA LANE SUITE 3D

Image
Hi, Stampers!      This is another sample from my August stamp camp, introducing my stampin' friends to this lovely suite (pp. 36-39 Annual Catalog).  This card is super easy, but is not quite as it appears.  It appears that the embossing and scalloped edge were cut and embossed on the front of the base and that the DSP is actually on the inside of the base.  Actually, the scalloped, embossed layer and the 1" x 4" DSP strip are attached to the front of the card base.  The embossed layer is popped up on Dimensionals.  See more here. .

STAMPIN' UP! GOOD MORNING MAGNOLIA BUNDLE IN PINK AND YELLOW

Image
Hiya, Stampers!      We created this card with the very popular Good Morning Magnolia Bundle (pp.36-39) - isn't it lovely?  No, the beautiful magnolia and leaves are not fussy-cut!  Yea!  Leaves and flower cut with one die (although there are lots of others in the set). We die-cut a small flower for the inside of the card and you can add your desired sentiment at the lower left. Click here for more and to see this card in Petal Pink . Happy Stampin’!
