Magnolia Blossom Trio Bouquet by Jean Okimoto

Take the Magnolia Collection beyond beautiful magnolias...imagine a tall bouquet of yellow blossoms! I've never seen yellow or long-stemmed magnolias but they're great for a thank you card. Hi, Jean here with just another way to take advantage of the versatile designs in our latest collection.

Cut 5 blossoms from the Magnolia Blossom Trio using an assortment of yellow 6x6's from the Sunny Orange Collection. Daub VersaFine Verdant onto the center diecuts and the base for the tallest flower. Assemble the blossoms.

Cut Vertical Line Collage from green cardstock - the offcuts become stems here. Attach the stems and angle-trim the bottoms.

Cut 2 bows from the Crisp Bows set from the gold Vintage Pastel Mirror Pad 6x6. Trim the curled loops. Carefully pull each bow's vertical center strip away from the center. Offset the bows and glue them together.

Stamp the greeting - from the Big and Little Reverse Words Clear Stamp Set - on light green cardstock with VersaFine Shady Lane. Quickly heat-emboss it with detail clear powder. Diecut it with the coordinating die that's included in the stamp set. Tape the bow to the back of the greeting with foam tape.

Attach the diecuts to a white A6 card (4-½" x 6-¼") - use foam tape for several petals and the greeting. Attach light green Christmas Fairy Jewels. Cut an A6 rectangle of cardstock to protect the card front for mailing.

Turn this basic design into a get well, birthday, congrats or friendship card too - everyone loves flowers!

Thanks for visiting - enjoy the weekend...
