We are continuing our crazy hot summer and it only looks to get worse so it's the perfect weather to head down to the studio and enjoy some crafting in the cool AC. Today's card uses this weeksPaper Craft Crew challenge which we are CASEing our fellow design team members and putting our own spin on them. For this card I decided to case the amazing Wendy Weixler and I love her masculine card she shared HERE, and decided to make a more feminine card using the Magnolia Lane Products Suite.
I started with Crumb Cake cardstock for the cardbase and then added a piece of Petal Pink cardstock that was stamped with the new Birch background stamp using Crumb Cake ink.
Next I took a piece of Crumb Cake cardstock and embossed it with the Layering Leaves 3D Embossing Folder and then sponged it with Crumb Cake ink before matting it with Basic Black cardstock. There are so many beautiful patterns in the Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper pack it was easy to find the perfect one's for this card and punched several pieces out using the Tailored Tag Punch before wrapping a piece of 3/16" Braided Linen Trim (after tying a knot I unraveled the trim for a frayed look).For the greeting I used the Good Morning Magnolia stamp set and heat embossed the greeting using the Heat Tool and Gold Embossing Powder on Mossy Meadow cardstock. The final touch was to stamp one of the small magnolia flowers on Whisper White cardstock and after coloring it with Stampin' Blends cut it out with the coordinating Magnolia Memories Dies and attached it to the cardfront with dimensionals.
I absolutely love the colors and all the different textures in this card, very elegant. Make sure to check out the other cards the design team is sharing which were inspired by our fellow team members and we would love for you to play along with us and share what you create!
