stamp review crew: good morning magnolia

Welcome to another Stamp Review Crew blog hop! Today we are featuring the Good Morning Magnolia stamp set. This gorgeous set is part of the Magnolia Lane Suite of coordinating products, but is also very versatile on its own.

I wanted to branch out from the product suite and play with some other colors. Blue and orange are complimentary colors on the color wheel, so I paired Pool Party and the new In Color Terracotta Tile. I threw in some Basic Gray for balance.

The Pool Party card base is embossed with the new Brick and Mortar 3D Embossing Folder. The texture and detail this folder creates is amazing. The photo really doesn’t do it justice. The welcome is one of the Well Written Dies. Some Terracotta Tile spatters keep the image panel from feeling too flat. Isn’t that large magnolia stamp GORGEOUS! It inspired me to step up the inside of the card as well.

I used the smaller blossom image, some ink spatters and DSP strips. A few details on the inside really step up the card.

I really liked this color scheme, so I stuck with it for my second card.

This time I used the Magnolia 3D embossing folder. The Hello was cut out with one of the Stitched Rectangle dies. It was longer than the sentiment so I shortened it. Just line up the stitches and run it through your die cutting machine again.

Of course, I had to decorate the inside of this card as well.

When embellishing the inside of the card, use some elements from the card front. For this card it was the Designer Series Paper peeking out from the torn corner. On the first card it was the ink spatters and DSP strips.
