I know there are a lot of Magnolia cards being shared. I believe it is because the suite of products is just so darn beautiful!! So I am sharing another one. This is a pretty simple card in that there is not a lot to it. I love the “clean” look of this one.
The gorgeous DSP is the Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper. It is the reverse (you know how much I love to use the reverse sides!) of the black background with the small flower above on it. I layered it on a Whisper White piece to hopefully not have it blend into the base card.
The flower is stamped with Early Espresso Ink. If you give it just a minute, then it does not bleed when you color it with the Stampin’ Blends. I love using other than black for my outline a lot of times. I have yet to have one bleed when the blends are used with it. I colored the edges of the petals with the Light Petal Pink Stampin’ Blend. The leaves and stem are done using Light Mossy Meadow and Light Crumb Cake.
The sentiment is from the Good Morning Magnolia set as well. Another plus in the column for this set is the sentiments. It is stamped in Mossy Meadow on Petal Pink card stock. I punched it out using the Tailored Tag Punch for a bit of a different shape.
Both the flower and sentiment are raised with Stampin’ Dimensionals. For just a touch of extra, I added a couple of the Gingham Gala Adhesive Back Sequins. These are great for just a bit of extra texture but they don’t jump out at you!
Thank you for visiting today! I hope you will come back tomorrow for another new project. I have all of the supplies used at the bottom of the post.

I will say up front that I made this card a few days ago. I was so surprised when I checked my Stampin’ Up! Up-Line Brian King’s blog yesterday and saw a very similar card. I dd not want you , or him, to think I copied his card. Although it is an acceptable practice and is called CASEing.
Anyway, I made today’s card in response to the Royal Challenge we are doing on our Team Facebook page while Brian is off on the SU Incentive Trip. I also sent it the next day to a couple I met in my travels that own a cattle ranch. I thought of them as soon as I saw this awesome Over The Moon stamp set.
I believe I have said it before, but I think these cows are adorable. I paired the High Tide set with the cow to get the dirt and grass for the field.
The beautiful color I chose is the new In Color Rococo Rose. I think the name is sweet as is the color. The plaid is from the 2019-2021 In Color Paper Stack of 6X6 DSP. I gave it a small border of white to mimic the white showing with the cow.
The cow is stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and then colored with Stampin’ Blends. It was die cut with the Layering Ovals Dies and backed with a scallop die from the Layering Ovals.
Here is a view of the inside and the envelope. I was going cow crazy on this card!
Thank you for visiting today! I really do appreciate it and hope you will return on Monday for more new projects.

I have a very Happy card to share today. At least I believe it is one that will make you SMILE! I also added a technique that is not as often used as most.
I believe daisies are just Happy Flowers. They seem to jump off of the card here. I used both the old Daisy Punch and NEW Medium daisy punch today. Each is two punched out flowers layered on top of each other. I also added the Perennial Essence Floral Center to each flower.
The background is Direct Ink To Paper. I simply opened the ink pad and drug it across the face of the Whisper White card stock. When I have shared this technique before, it was done on Glossy card stock. This time I used just regular Whisper White, not even the Thick version.
The two colors I used are Pretty Peacock on the bottom and Seaside Spray on the upper section. I went over it a second time in spots where I had lifted a tad early. I like the light and dark that you get in doing this technique. You do not want to press too hard.
The leaves are from the Daisy Lane Stamp set and are stamped in Granny Apple Green. The sentiment is from the same stamp set. I love one stamp set cards!! I stamped the Smile on a scrap of card stock and then only punched one end with the Pretty Label Punch. I accomplished this by placing the piece of card stock inside the cutting area from the back. It was smaller than the punch area, so it was easy to line up top and bottom and then just punch the one end. I love playing with our punches to get different looks!
MEASUREMENTS:
Card base is 11 X 4 1/4
Layer is 5 3/8 X 4 1/8
Center layer is 3 7/8 X 3 3/8
White Center is 3 3/4 X 3 1/4

I am trying to go back and use stamp sets that have carried over to the new annual catalog and show them some love. Sometimes we get so excited with the New that we forget the really awesome sets. Today I am showcasing Healing Hugs. It is a beautiful flower with some sweet sentiments.
I love these bold colors. I paired Mango Melody with Mossy Meadow. The Layered Leaves Embossing folder really shows off on the darker card stock.
I stamped three of the flowers in Mango Melody. Two are on the white layer and one was on a scrap piece. I fussy cut the third one and them layered it with dimensional to give some definition to the flowers. I know it is a bit difficult to see in the photo.
The sentiment is from another carryover stamp set, Stitched All Around. The lovely Mossy Meadow linen thread is part of a combo ribbon pack. It is named Magnolia Lane Ribbon Combo and is part of the Magnolia Suite of products.
Thank you for stopping by today! I would love to hear from you. There are some specials listed further down in the post, as are the complete list of supplies.

Welcome to InKing Royalty’s June Blog Hop! This year’s Blog Hop themes are inspired by a single word – and this month our projects are centered around NEW. With the launch of Stampin’ Up!’s 2019 Annual Catalog, NEW gives us the opportunity to showcase new products and play with new colors. There are also new occasions (babies, weddings, graduations) to celebrate, so you are going to see a variety of projects in this hop. We are excited to share our creations with you today! After you read my post, I hope you’ll hop over to the next person on the list at the base of this post.
My card reflects two of the NEW theme ideas. I am showcasing a NEW stamp set, Winds of Change. I looked at this set when I received my catalog and it was a must have. As you know, I love to color with the Stampin’ Blends, and this set is perfect for coloring. I also LOVE to travel. Next month I am going on another Viking River Boat Cruise. And we begin in Amsterdam! I have never been to Amsterdam before, so this is my second NEW for the theme. I am so excited about the trip, and am equally excited to share my card idea with you.
Even the sentiment on the card goes along with the theme! I googled Amsterdam and looked at all of the windmills for some color inspiration. They are typically brownish, but the blades can be different colors. I added just a touch of the Granny Apple Green to my blades to match the bottom section of the windmill building.
All of the pictures I saw were in vibrant colors, so that is what I went with. I always prefer a mix of colors in flowers, so I mixed my tulips and then added a whimsical touch with the butterfly. The butterfly is from the Hold On To Hope stamp set and the Cross of Hope Framelits. I colored it with Granny Apple and Daffodil Delight markers then die cut it.
The sentiment is done with my favorite new technique. I used the Rectangle Stitched Framelits and cut to fit the size I needed. (As I mentioned in yesterday’s post, there are several videos out there on how to do this little trick).
Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you’ll hop along to the next stop on the bloghop, Lynn Kolcun at Avery’s Owlery. There’s lots of inspiration to be found in this group – and you don’t want to miss it!
Thank you for hopping along with us. If you get stuck during the Blog Hop, please use this line-up as a guide:
Welcome to the Pals’ June Blog Hop. We’re so glad you’re here because we made some great projects using “Anything with Wings”. You may be starting the hop here or coming from a previous Pal’s blog. Either way, you’ve come to the right place. You’ll find the full line-up below to help you move, or “hop” along from Pal to Pal.
I am sharing birds for my “anything with wings” challenge. This is actually my second card. I switched from butterflies to birds.
This is the negative of the Stitched Nested Labels that I shared on Monday’s card. I love getting two cards from one piece. I embossed the So Saffron with the Subtle Embossing Folder prior to cutting with the Stitched Nested Labels. (They are bundled with the Free As A Bird stamp set!) The gorgeous DSP is the Bird Ballad Designer Series Paper.
The birds are stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored with a variety of Stampin’ Blends. I decided to fussy cut the birds to give more dimension to the card. The trick is to turn the paper and not your scissors! I also stamped and cut out the small flower from the stamp set to anchor the banner at the top.
Thank you for visiting today! I hope you enjoyed my card and the projects of the other Blogs in the Hop.
More inspiration awaits! Use the Blog Hop Line-up below to visit the rest of this month’s Design Team. My fellow Pals are excited to show you what they’ve created! Don’t forget to show us some love by commenting on our creations. Mark your calendars for Wednesday, July 10, 2019 when our Hoppin’ Pals share their “Mixing It Up” projects. Don’t miss the fun!
