Stampin’ Up! Magnolia Mood Easel Card

Stampin’ Up! Magnolia Mood Easel Card

The card I am sharing today is created using Stampin’ Up! Magnolia Mood Stamp Set & Dies along with Stampin’ Up! Unbounded Love Stamp Set. I also used Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder  and Pearl Basic Gems.

Card Cuts For This Card

  • Basic White cardstock
    • card base — 4-1/4″ x 11″ scored at 2-3/4″ and 5-1/2″
    • label card front — 1-1/2″ 4-1/8″
  • Melon Mambo cardstock
    • embossed panel card front — 4″ x 5-1/4″
  • Splendid Autumn Designer Series Paper
    • inside panel — 4″ x 5-1/4″
    • envelope flap — 2-1/4″ x 6″
  •  Brights 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper
  • mat back of card — 2-3/4″ x 4″

You can see another of my blogs for more instructions.

As I colored the magnolias using Watercolor pencils in Melon Mambo and Granny Apple Green, I first stamped the images using Stazon Black ink. Stazon is what you want to use when doing watercoloring.  I decided to just use the pencils and not add the water.  Maybe I should have because my magnolias have little color to them.  The Melon Mambo comes out so pale it is hard to tell there is any color on the magnolias.  This is a semi CAS of one I saw on Pinterest but I saw no name.  I did add embossing and frayed edges for the Melon Mambo panel.

The Melon Mambo embossed panel is adhered to the easel of the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  A greeting from Stampin’ Up! Layering Leaves Stamp Set is stamped in Night Of Navy ink on a Basic White banner.  The banner is adhered across the card front and one of the magnolias is added above and the other below the banner.  Additional leaves are popped around both magnolias.  

This is the way the easel looks from the side view.

This is how the card looks as a full head on easel.

A sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Unbounded Love Stamp Set is stamped on a strip of Basic White cardstock in Night of Navy ink.  The word You is die cut using a long, long retired die set from Stampin’ Up!  If you have the alphabet dies, then it will be easy to die cut the word.  The sentiment piece has a strip of Melon Mambo adhered to each side.  A piece of Splendid Autumn Designer Series Paper is adhered to the inside card base and the sentiment is adhered over the panel.  The magnolia bud is colored using Granny Apple Green, Crush Curry, and Melon Mambo Watercolor Pencils.

A Basic White envelope gets a piece of Splendid Autumn Designer Series Paper adhered to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin’ Up! Products Used In Creating This Card


Stampin’ Up! Mediterranean Blooms

Stampin’ Up! Mediterranean Blooms

The Mediterranean Blooms Designer Series Paper does most of the work in the card I am sharing today.  I did use Stampin’ Up! Beach Day Stamp Set and Stampin’ Up! Coffee With Friends Stamp Set for the greeting and sentiment.  I also use the Timber 3D Embossing Folder.

Challenges for this card

Pammie’s Inky Pinkies Challenge  

Krafty Chicks Challenge 

This is an easel fun fold.  The card base is Basic White cardstock with a piece of Garden Green cardstock embossed using Timber 3D Embossing Folder.

Card Cuts For This Card

  • Basic White cardstock
    • card base — 4-1/4″ x 11″ scored at 2-3/4″ and 5-1/2″
    • mat Night of Navy piece card front — 1-1/2″ x 5-1/8″
    • label card front — 2-3/4″ 4-1/8″
  • Garden Green cardstock
    • embossed panel card front — 4″ x 5-1/4″
    • inside panel — 4″ x 5-1/4″
  • Mediterranean Blooms Designer Series Paper
    • strip down left side — 1-1/4″ x 5″
    • oraanges fussy cut from panel of Designer Series Paper

Easel cards are the easiest of all to create.  You can see from the photo above how the card is folded.  The easiness of the card creation is because there is only two pieces of card stock for the card base. The main part that creates the easel is two folds and another piece of card stock is added as you can see that creates the card front with all the elements necessary to decorate the card, with this one the Designer Series Paper does most of the creating.

Front view of easel card.

A panel of Garden Green is embossed using Timber 3D Embossing Folder, then adhered to the inside card base.  Fussy cut oranges are adhered at the top left and along the bottom of the panel.  A sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Beach Day Stamp Set  is stamped in Night of Navy ink on a scrap of Basic White cardstock, trimmed and popped on the Garden Green layer.  This creates the stopper for the easel. 

A Basic White envelope gets a piece of Mediterranean Blooms Designer Series Paper adhered to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
