Special Moments – Embossed and Glossed by Jean Okimoto

P1025850

Celebrate special moments with a summer-y floral slimline.  Hi, Jean here with a combination of soft colors, bold designs and a lot of texture.   

P1025875
Cut the pale peach Vintage Pastel Mirror Pad 6x6 with the blossom die from the Gracious Floral 3D Embossing Folder and Die Set.  Place the diecut in the folder and  emboss it using the plates required for your machine.  Ink the center with Brilliance Pearlescent Lime and set it aside to dry.

The Gracious Floral Clear Stamp and Die set includes the floral die and 2 greeting dies.  Cut the design from heavy white cardstock.  Ink the embossing folder with Brilliance Rocket Red Gold - tap the inkpad repeatedly over the surface without squishing it into the design. Emboss the cardstock.  

Stamp the greeting on pale green cardstock with Shady Lane VersaFine Clair. Quickly heat-emboss it with detail clear powder.   Dry the ink, then trim it with one end of the ⅞" wide Slim Basic Rectangles die.  Trim the other end with the side of a larger die from the rectangles set.

Trim the Madras Plaid Coral and Green 6x6 with the 1-⅜" wide Slim Basic Rectangles die - cut it vertically, including the top portion  where the sheets are attached.  

Cut white cardstock with the 2-¼" wide Slim Basic Rectangles die

P1025863

Attach the diecuts to a white slimline card (3-⅝" x 8-⅝") - use foam tape where the petals extend beyond the background rectangles.  Add clear Christmas Fairy Crystals.  Cut a slimline-sized rectangle of cardstock to protect the card front for mailing.

Thanks for visiting the blog...have a great weekend!

Here's a new look for the sweet Backyard Wren - it's a plush felt canary with goldlined wings.  Yellow felt and custom-colored wings create a bright summer look from a favorite spring design.  Hi, Jean here with an any-occasion design that works in any color combination.

Attach adhesive label paper or a sticker sheet to wool-blend felt.  The paper layer stabilizes the fabric and prevents adhesives from saturating it.  Cut Backyard Wren, excluding the wings.  Cut the beak/eye piece from white cardstock and color it with orange and black markers.  Attach it behind the bird.  Attach the top head layer too.

Diecut the wings from the ivory and wavy gold Magnolia Grove 6x6.  Brush or sponge the diecuts with Sunflower Yellow Brilliance ink.  Gently buff the inked wings with a tissue to remove any excess ink.  Assemble the bird.

Cut recycled kraft cardtock with the  3-¼" wide Curved Cap Pinpoint Layers die.

Cut Magnolia Leaf Branch fropm green cardstock.  Color the stem and branches with brown ink.  Trim the leaves and branches that will be covered by the bird - save them for repositioning.    

Stamp the greeting - from the Joyful Moments Clear Stamp Set - on yellow cardstock with Onyx Black VersaFine.  Quickly heat-emboss it with detail clear powder.  Cut it with the 1-½" Circle Basics Die.

Attach the diecuts to a top-folded recycled kraft card - use foam dots for the head, wing tips and tail.  Attach the saved leaf diecuts - above the rear wing and near the bottom of the branch.  Add pale orange Pastel Fairy Jewels.

If you've started making Christmas cards - use bright red felt and ink for a festive holiday bird to perch on a wreath or deliver a greeting. 

Thanks for visiting...have a great weekend!

Add texture and dimension to your summer projects with 3D embossing, diecuts, layered stencils and clear stamps from our latest release - the Gracious Floral Collection.  It's a versatile, coordinated group of design elements to mix, match and layer for quick and easy projects - or detailed works of art.  Hi, Jean here with an embossed, stenciled friendship card for someone experiencing some challenging times.

Cut heavy white cardstock with the floral outline die from the Gracious Floral Clear Stamp and Die Set.  Spray each side of the diecut with a light spritz of water.  Place it securely in the Gracious Floral 3D Embossing Folder and pressure emboss it using the plate(s) required for your machine. A blossom die also comes with the embossing folder - save it for another project.

Sponge or brush the different sections of the blossoms and leaves using the layered, numbered Gracious Floral Stencil Set.   Great news...the set also includes a colored, numbered printout to guide you through the stenciling sequence!  I used the same Pearlescent Brilliance inks - Coral, Lime, Orange and Sunflower Yellow - to stencil multiple layers of the same colors to build dimension.  

Cut white cardstock with the 2-½" and 3" wide Nested Globes dies for a subtle white-on-white background to accent the flowers  without competing with them.  

Stamp the greeting - from the Gracious Floral Clear Stamp and Die Set - on white cardstock with Pearlescent Lime.  Cut it with the second-smallest Nested Globes die.  Tuck the blank space on the left side under the edge of the globes when the card is assembled.

Attach the diecuts to a white A6 card (4-½" x 6-¼") - use foam tape for the petals and leaves that extend over the edge of the globe diecuts.  Add pale gold Pastel Jewels.  Cut an A6-sized rectangle of cardstock to protect the card front for mailing.

The greeting is set back and partially hidden...like someone providing quiet, behind-the-scenes support and encouragement.

The coordinating elements of the Gracious Floral Collection make it easy to create a wide range of summer and all-occasion projects.  Everything - from simple cards to detailed mixed media designs!

The cheerful Backyard Wren is the perfect messenger to deliver happy thoughts and good wishes.  Diecut him from felt and add shimmery Rainbow Reflections mirror cardstock wings.  Hi, Jean here with a design to celebrate a promotion, new job, retirement or special milestone in someone's life.

Attach adhesive label paper (or a sticker sheet) to turquoise wool-blend felt and cut Backyard Wren.  The paper backing stabilizes the felt and keeps adhesives from saturating the fabric.  Cut the wings from the turquoise Rainbow Reflections 6x6.  Cut the petal-shaped beak piece from white cardstock.  Color the beak section with an orange marker.  Color the eye area with a black marker.  Attach the diecut behind him.

Cut Magnolia Bud Trio from light yellow cardstock  Cut two sets of the sepals from green cardstock.  Assemble the buds and layer the sepals for dimension.

Cut Magnolia Leaf Branch from the green cardstock too.  Mask the leaves with scrap paper and sponge, daub or brush the stems with Toffee VersaFine.  Trim the leafy sprig that will be hidden by the wren - it'll be attached is other areas.  Attach some of the narrow "half-leaves" for dimension.  

Stamp the greeting - from the Joyful Moments Clear Stamp Set - on light kraft cardstock with Warm Breeze VersaFine Clair.  Dry the ink and diecut the greeting with the smallest A2 Rectangle Frames Die.  Cut another rectangle from green cardstock and layer it for dimension.

Attach the diecuts to a light kraft A6 card (4-½" x 6-¼")- use foam dots to the feather tips and the tops of the buds.  Add extra leaves to fill the branches.  Add light turquoise Pastel Jewels.  Cut an A6-sized rectangle of cardtock to protect the card front for mailing.

Celebrate a major achievement - or even a small step in the right direction - with a handcrafted card.  Add a personal note too!

Marvelous Magnolia Embossed Card
by Anne Thompson

Today I used the MARVELOUS MAGNOLIA 3D EMBOSSING FOLDER AND CUTTING DIES EF1035, a piece of leafy paper from MAGNOLIA GROVE PP1022, and a white Prismacolor pencil to create this "let hope carry you through" card.

IMG_1725-ink

I began by using both the Marvelous Magnolia embossing folder and the cutting dies with pieces of black card stock.

IMG_1682 (1)-ink

I trimmed the embossed image to 5 1/4 X 4 and added it to a white note card that I had covered with a leafy print paper from the Magnolia Grove paper pad.

IMG_1685 (1)-ink

I added the three die cut blooms to the inside of the note card.

IMG_1687 (1)-ink

I went back to the front of the card with a white Prismacolor pencil because I thought the image looked too stark and added white to the embossed branches and blossoms.

IMG_1718 (1)-ink

The next step was to choose an appropriate sentiment to add to the front of the card..."let hope carry you through" from the FLOWERING CACTUS CL5271 clear stamps set seemed right for this image and for the person who will receive it.

Hugs in Bloom by Jean Okimoto

P1025149 2

Send hugs with Magnolia Rub-On Transfers - from bud to bloom - on a layered slimline greeting.  Hi, Jean here with a floral design in comforting shades of soft pinks and warm browns.   

P1025137
Cut the magnolia buds and blossom and their paper liners from the transfer sheet - leave a generous border around each design.  Carefully remove the paper liner and press the transfers lightly onto pink cardstock - leave extra space to diecut the circles.  The Magnolia Rub-On Transfers sets include a wood craft stick to burnish the beautiful designs.  Or run them through the diecut machine to burnish the designs - between 2 sheets of printer paper and the base + cutting plates. Remove the frosty protective top layer then diecut the designs with the 1-½" and 1-¾" Circle Basics dies.  

Cut light pink cardstock with the 6.7" x 1.7" Slim Basic Rectangle Layers die.  Cut the rectangle with the Vertical Line Collage die.

Cut the leafy brown Magnolia Grove 6x6 with the 1.4" x 6.4" Slim Basic Rectangle Layers die.  Attach the brown print behind the collage cutout.

Cut the Hugs Tender Script background from light pink cardstock.  Spritz both sides with a light mist of water, then pressure-emboss it with the detailed top layer of the greeting.  Pressure-embossing creates a debossed area to attach the detailed top layer.  Cut the top layer from the brown leaf print.  Assemble the greeting.

P1025142

Attach the diecuts to a light pink slimline card (3-⅝" x 8-½") - use foam taper for the greeting.  Add pale gold Treasure Chest Fairy Gemstones.  Cut a slimline-sized rectangle of cardstock to protect the card front for mailing.

The Magnolia Rub-On Transfers look beautifully realistic over white and natural cardstock.  Layer them over pink, light lavender or light violet cardstock for a different look.

Thanks for visiting...have a great week!

Magnolia Hugs
by Angie Cimbalo

 
Hello and welcome, it's Angie here today.   I have a  card today that features some products from the newest Memory Box release.   
 
Here's another look:
 

The background is a paper from the new Magnolia Grove PP1022 Paper Pack and the die cut rectangle is cut from gold mirror card stock from the Rainbow Reflections Mirror Paper Pack FP1003.

 
The top flower is the top one cut from the 94720 Magnolia Blossom Trio craft die, and the one on the left is from the 94717 Magnolia Floral Stem craft die.  The flower on the right is cut with the 94716 Magnolia Blooming Bud craft die.  The right and left flowers were cut twice and stacked and the one on the top was a single die cut popped up at the top only.  The were colored with Distress Ink and ink daubers then topped off with Wink of Stella.
 
The sentiment is from CL5272 Signature Greetings stamp and die set, heat embossed on black card stock in white.  Here's one last look:

 
I hope you like my card for today.  The newest Magnolia release has so many gorgeous products!  I have links to all the products on my blog HERE if you are interested in them!

Transfer, Emboss and Frame a Marvelous Magnolia by Jean Okimoto

Need a quick card?  Transfer, diecut and 3D-emboss a Marvelous Magnolia and add a shimmery Crystal Frame background.  A diecut greeting and Autumn Fairy Crystals top it off.  Hi, Jean here with a garden greeting to start the weekend.

Cut a Magnolia Rub-on Transfer and its paper liner - with a generous border.  Carefully remove the paper liner and tap the transfer onto heavy smooth white cardstock.  Place it between two sheets of printer paper to protect the design. Run it through the diecut machine (without the die!) with the plates used for cutting.  Carefully remove the top plastic liner.  Memory Box Rub-on Transfer sets include a wooden craft stick to burnish the transfer - but the rolling pressure of a diecut machine does a great job too!

Diecut the design with the matching die from the 3D embossing folder set.  Cut a second piece from heavy white cardstock and layer it for dimension.

Place the diecut in the Marvelous Magnolia 3D Embossing Folder and run it through the machine using the plates required for 3D embossing.

I used an ink-blended piece of Open Studio Watercolor Paper from my stash and spritzed it with more water and daubed it with a tissue to blot some of the inks for a lighter background.  Lightly spritzed it with Imagine's Gold Sheer Shimmer Sprtiz too.  Let it dry, then cut it with the large Crystal Frames die.  Attach the frame and its offcut to a white side-folded 5-½" square card.  The peaked Crystal Frame complements and resembles the top of the blossom without being too match-y.

Stamp the greeting - from the Friends and Family Clear Stamp Set - on a pale lavender 6x6 from the Twilight Purple Collection with Purple Delight VersaFine Clair.  Dry the ink, then trim the greeting with the 1-½" Square Basics die.

Assemble the card  - use foam tape for the greeting.  Add purple Autumn Fairy Crystals.  Cut a 5-½" square of cardstock to protect the card front for mailing.  Square cards require additional postage and handling.

Hugs, Hearts and A Marvelous Magnolia by Jean Okimoto

P1024844

Add texture and floral details  to rub-on transfers with the Marvelous Magnolia 3D Embossing Folder.  It's an easy, foolproof way to add dimension to several of the  beautifully-colored Magnolia Rub-On transfers.  Hi, Jean here with a simple floral design for friendship cards - or a Mother's Day card.

P1024871

Cut the magnolia blossom from the transfer sheet and the paper liner - leave a margin around the design.  Carefully remove the paper liner.  Press the transfer lightly onto pale pink cardstock. The Magnolia Rub-On set includes 2 sheets of transfers - and a wood burnishing stick to transfer the image. I like to run the transfer and cardstock through the diecut machine instead of burnishing it.  Place the cardstock between 2 layers of printer paper to protect it from any deep scratches or bumps on your diecutting plates.  Run the transfer and cardstock through the machine with the plates used for diecutting.  Carefully remove the frosted top liner.

Cut the flower with the die that's included in the embossing folder set.  Place the diecut in the embossing folder and run it through the machine using the plates required for 3D embossing folders.

Cut the largest Double Stitch Happy Heart from pale pink cardstock.  Cut the heart with the second-largest Double Stitch Happy Heart die to add the stitch outline and diecut the interior heart.

Spread glue between 2 layers of pale pink cardstock and run it through the diecut machine to distribute the glue.  Cut it with the Hugs Tender Script background die.  Pressure-emboss the diecut with the detailed top layer of the diecut set.  This creats a debossed background that makes it easy to attach the detailed greeting.

Cut the detailed greeting from the light chartreuse Graceful Garden Glitter Pad 6x6.  Attach it to the background, 

 

P1024868 2

Attach the diecuts to a top-folded white A2 card - use foam dots for the top halves of the flower and the heart.  Add pale pink Pastel Fairy Jewels.

Pressure-embossed Magnolia Rub-On Transfers are great when you need a quick card that doesn't look like a quick card!  The colors, details and dimensions create beautiful blossoms for any occasion.

Thanks for visiting!

Magnolia Rub-On Transfers eliminate both coloring and diecutting the layers to create instant cards.  Just add a Magnolia Plaid accent strip, gemstones and a greeting.  Hi, Jean here with a simple floral design from our latest collection.

Leave a generous margin around each design and cut the buds and blossoms from the Magnolia Rub-On Transfer Sheet - cut through both the transfer and its paper liner.  Carefully remove the paper liner and tap the transfers onto smooth white cardstock - leave space between the transfers to diecut the circles later.

The transfer set includes 2 sheets of transfers and a craft stick to burnish the design.  It's also easy to burnish the design onto cardstock by running it through a diecut machine (between two sheets of printer paper) using the cutting plates.  Carefully remove the frosty layer.  Cut the designs with the 1-¼", 1-½" and 1-¾" Circle Basics dies.

Cut pale lavender cardstock with the 6-¼" Slim Basic Rectangle Layers die.  Cut a Magnolia Plaid 6x6 sheet with the same die - cut it vertically and include the top of the paper pad.  

Stamp the greeting - from the Springtime Typewriter Sentiments Clear Stamp Set - with Purple Delight VersaFine Clair.  Dry the ink and cut the greeting with the second-smallest Slim Basic Rectangle Layers die.  Trim the short end.

Attach the diecuts to a white slimline card (3-⅝"  x 8-½").  Add lavender Winter Fantasy Fairy Gemstones.  It's easy to pick the perfect matching color of the iridescent gemstones - just look at the reverse side.  Cut a slimline-sized rectangle of cardstock to protect the card front for mailing.

Thanks for visiting...have fun creating projects with the Magnolia Rub-On Transfers this weekend!
