STAMPIN' UP! CARD FEATURING MAGNOLIA 3D EMBOSSING FOLDER

 The beautiful Magnolia 3D embossing folder is one item in my craft stash that has been sorely neglected.  I had a lovely time playing with it, and some lovely soft colours, to create this card:

I started out by inserting a piece of Shimmery White card in the embossing folder, and running it through my Stampin' Cut & Emboss machine.  It gives a beautiful, simply elegant, result.  I then "took to" the flowers and leaves with Stampin' Blends markers, colouring the magnolias in Pale Papaya (with Soft Saffron stamen), and the leaves in Soft Sea Foam.

I added background speckles, stamped using a Forever Fern stamp, in Pale Papaya and Soft Sea Foam ink.

To fill in some of the white space around the edges of the main card panel, I fussy-cut some Soft Sea Foam leaves, from a piece of Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper.

Genial Gems in Pale Papaya add a bit of sparkle to the card.

The sentiment (and tiny heart), stamped in Pale Papaya ink on Shimmery White card, is from Many Happenings.  I used the Messages Die to crop the sentiment and heart.  A few Pale Papaya speckles were stamped on the sentiment die cut, to tie in with the background.

Listed below are all the products I used to make this card.  If you live  in Australia, and would like to shop with me for your Stampin' Up! supplies, you can get to my online store by clicking on any of the thumbnail images below.
