The Magnolia Mood Bundle is so much fun to play with and color. I used Stampin Blends, but Watercolor Pencils or Inks and a Blender Pen also work well to color the flowers. I used light and dark Bubble Bath, light and dark Granny Apple Green and light Daffodil Delight Blends to color this Magnolia. The Vellum back ground is the Quatrefoil Tile embossing folder. The sentiment is from the Layering Leaves stamp set and heat embossed with Silver embossing powder, then fussy cut. The ribbon is the 1/2″ Silver and White Sheer Ribbon and Basic Rhinestones to finish the card.

Cutting and Instructions to create this card:

- Stamp the large Magnolia flower on Basic White card stock in Basic Gray ink
- Die cut the flower out with the matching Magnolia Mood die
- Color the flower using light and dark Bubble Bath, light and dark Granny Apple Green and light Daffodil Delight Blends
- Attach a piece of the 1/2″ Silver and White Sheer Ribbon to the vellum embossed layer with Stampin Seal
- Pop up the Magnolia flower over the ribbon with dimensionals
- Add the vellum layer to the card base with liquid glue and glue dots, carefully placing the liquid glue where the dimentionals are attaching the flower to the vellum, so the glue does not show through the vellum and then add glue dots around the edge of the vellum on the embossed areas so they too don’t show through the vellum
- On a scrap of Bubble Bath card stock, stamp a sentiment from the Layering Leaves stamp set in Versamark and heat emboss with Silver embossing powder
- Fussy cut the sentiment out and attach to the card with dimensionals
- Add some Basic Rhinestones to finish the card
