Introducing the Magnolia Lane Suite

Count Down to the new Catty! Recently I presented a card to some fellow demonstrators using the Magnolia Lane Suite in the new upcoming catalogue that starts on June 4th. You are going to love this beautiful suite! I created 3 different versions of the card to show how you can create a beginner, a casual and an avid stamper card. Here is the beginner card using the large floral image from Magnolia Lane Suite.

Stampin’ Up! Retiring In-Colors Swap Card

Stampin’ Up! Retiring In-Colors Swap Card

I would like to share with you a swap card I made recently using Stampin’ Up!’s retiring In-Colors Berry Burst, Powder Pink and Lemon Lime Twist. I will be sad to see these colours retire! I also used the Needle & Thread Photopolymer Bundle to create this beautiful card. As a result, this card is a creative master piece.

First of all, this card features a base in Berry Burst measuring 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ folded in half to create a card 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″. Next, I used a layer of Whisper White 4″ x 5 1/4″. Powder Pink measuring 3 3/4″ x 5″ creates the next layer which is die cut twice with the floral pin hole die.

The largest circle is die cut from the Stitched Shapes Framelits Dies on a piece of Whisper White card stock. I also stamped the largest flower in Powder Pink, the trio of flowers in Lemon Lime Twist and the butterflies in Berry Burst. The corresponding Berry Burst scallop die was layered under the stamped circle.

In addition, the large flower was stamped on a separate piece of whisper White and die cut with the Needlepoint Elements Framelits Dies. The Lemon Lime Twist leaves were also die cut from the Framelits.

Finally, the Berry Burst 3/8″ (1 Cm) Mini Ruffled Ribbon and some Rhinestone Basic Jewels add some elegant to this card.

Hope you liked my Retiring In-Colors Swap Card!
