Mother's Day Magnolia's - Elizabeth Craft Designs

Hi and Welcome!

Happy Belated Mother's Day!!! 

I think the beautiful magnolia from The Spring Blossom Collection by Designs by Angelica Turner is the perfect flower for Mother's Day. I created this card for my daughter and I really love how it turned out. 

Create a 6 x 6" white tent fold card base. Using the largest stitched square die, cut from white cardstock. Using the second largest stitched square die, cut again from white cardstock. Use a textured embossing folder to emboss the top of this diecut and use a floral embossing folder to emboss the bottom. Adhere the two squares together and adhere to the card front. Cu a piece of lace ribbon and adhere to separate the two embossed designs.

Diecut, color and shape the beautiful magnolia flowers and leaves. Adhere the magnolia petals together slightly offset, pierce the flower centers and insert pearl stamens. Top Tip: I like to spray the flowers with water before shaping to break the paper fibers. It helps to create a lovely, firm dimensional flower. 

Adhere the flowers and leaves to the card front creating a pretty arrangement. Generate a sentiment on the computer, cut to 2 5/8 x 3/8", emboss using the same textured embossing folder and adhere using dimensional tape. Add some petite pearls for the finishing touch.

Using the second largest stitched square die, cut from pink cardstock and adhere to the inside of the card. Add your message on white cardstock, stamp the floral image from the Floral Branches & Sentiments stamp set on the bottom right and diecut using the smallest stitched square die.

Adhere the other two diecut rectangles to the inside of the card.
