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.

My hope and wish are that you wilbe inspired to create amazing creations yourself. Feel free to CAS(E) any card. Any questions you may have, you know you can always contact me. Have a blessed day!
