Stampin’ Up! Magnolia Lane
My card today is created using the new Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper and the Good Morning Magnolia stamp set (available June 4)
Here are the challenges I think my card will fit today. Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge.
And… Craftyhazelnut’s Patterned Paper Challenge. 
And… Watercooler Wednesday Anything Goes Challenge
The card base is Stampin’ Up! Mossy Meadow card stock. Then there is a Stampin’ Up! Petal Pink card stock mat for the Stampin’ Up! Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper (available June 4). These are adhered together using Liquid Multipurpose Glue. 
What do you think of the Mossy Meadow strip that is vertical down the panel of Magnolia Lane DSP? It looks like a ribbon doesn’t it, but it is the strip that I cut off the Magnolia Lane DSP when I was cutting it for the correct size. It even looks as if it has a Whisper White mat but that is just the strip on each side of the Mossy Meadow strip. This is the reverse side of the Magnolia Lane panel. 
The greeting is stamped in Stampin’ Up! Mossy Meadow ink on a Stampin’ Up! Petal Pink card stock label that has been punched using the Stampin’ Up! Timeless Label Punch (from the Mosiac Mood Suite available June 4). It is matted on a Mossy Meadow card stock mat that is cut with the same punch.
Two small Magnolias have been fussy cut and popped on the label and in the lower right corner along with a Stampin’ Up! Pearl Basic Jewel. Two other pearls are popped in the upper right corner.
The envelope flap has been covered to coordinate with the Magnolia Lane panel on the card front.
Here is the first card I made for this challenge, but after making it I did not like it so I made the card you see above. Quite a contrast right?
Thank you for stopping by today. I hope your day is blessed.

I hope you had a nice Memorial Day and that the remainder of the week will be just as wonderful! My card is created using the Stampin’ Up! Beauty Abounds and Butterfly Gala stamp set. Both are being carried over to the new 2019-2020 Annual Catalog.
Stampin’ Up! Basic Black card stock is the base, then a layer of Stampin’ Up Whisper White card stock that has been stamped using the Stampin’ Up! Beauty Abounds! stamp set. It is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink. The other half of the Whisper White panel has a Stampin’ Up! Balmy Blue Gingham Gala panel that has been trimmed using one of the dies from the Stampin’ Up! Delicate Lace Dies to cut the lacy trim from Basic Black card stock. 
These also are carrying over to the new catalog that will launch on June 4. The butterflies from the Stampin’ Up! Butterfly Gala stamp set is stamped using Tuxedo Memento Black ink on scraps of Whisper White card stock, they are then colored using the Stampin’ Up! Light Balmy Blue Stampin’ Blends and punched out using the Stampin’ Up! Butterfly Duet Punch. 
The greeting from the Beauty Abounds stamp set is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink on a scrap of Whisper White card stock and popped on the card front.
The inside sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Beauty Abounds stamp set is stamped on a panel of Whisper White card stock in Tuxedo Memento Black ink. Two butterflies from the Stampin’ Up! Butterfly Gala stamp set is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink in the lower right corner of the panel. The panel is adhered using Liquid Glue.
An envelope flap is covered using the Gingham Gala 6′ x 6″ DSP.
Today we celebrate Memorial Day although there have been festivities all weekend. When I was a kid, Memorial Day was always the 30thof May. It was called Decoration Day. It was made a national holiday in 1971, at that time it was moved to the last Monday in May.
I am using the Stampin’ Up! Love What You Do stamp set to create my card today The flowers in this set look like Poppies so for that reason I am using it. Poppies have become a symbol for Memorial Day. You see veterans sitting outside stores selling their poppies to raise funds for our veterans. I am sure many of you have stopped and bought one of these. If you see them outside a store today, stop and chat and buy one.
My card has a Stampin’ Up! Blueberry Bushel card stock base. It has been embossed using the Stampin’ Up! Embossing Folder Oh! My Stars! How appropriate as our flag has stars on it. 
Next comes a panel of red and white polka dot that is from a 6″ x 6″ pack of retired Stampin’ Up! DSP. The cover was missing so I have no way of what 6″ x 6″ pack it is from, but it was the only red polka dot I have and as I wanted my card to be red, white, and blue I used it. I tried to punch holes in a panel of Real Red card stock but my hole punch was not long throated enough. This polka dot panel is matted on a panel of Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock and adhered to the embossed card front using Liquid Glue.
The poppy image from Stampin’ Up! Love What You Do stamp set was used to stamp the image in Stampin’ Up! Real Red and Old Olive inks. A Stampin’ Up! Light Real Red Blends Pen was then used to color the flowers. A Stampin’ Up! Real Red Stampin’ Write Marker was used to color the small bow made from Stampin’ Up! Linen Thread as I do not have red linen thread.
Three stars from the Best Route Enamel Shapes were scattered over the card front. The “thinking of you” greeting is from the Stampin’ Up! Sheltering Tree stamp set (retiring June 3). It is stamped in Blueberry Bushel ink on a scrap of Whisper White card stock and popped on the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
The inside sentiment is stamped on a panel of Whisper White card stock in Blueberry Bushel ink. The sentiments are from the new Stampin’ Up! To A Wild Rose Bundle and Believe You Can stamp set (available to customers June 4).
My card is created using the Stampin’ Up! Sunshine Wishes Thinlits. As you can see a very simple easy card to create.
The card front and the butterfly panel have been embossed using the Stampin’ UP! Subtle Embossing Folder. A butterfly from the Sunshine Wishes Thinlits is used to cut the butterfly in the center of the square. It is then returned to its place and a scrap of Stampin’ Up! Lovely Lipstick card stock is adhered behind it to show the Lovely Lipstick color through the butterfly. 
The heart and the word LOVE are also cut from Lovely Lipstick and adhered or popped on with Liquid Multipurpose Glue or Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Dimensionals. Three pearls from the Stampin’ Up! Pearl Basic Jewels Assortment is scattered over the card front.
The inside sentiment is stamped on a panel of Whisper White using the Stampin’ Up! Itty Bitty Birthday stamp set.
