A Trio of Magnolia Buds

Thanks for visiting my blog today.

I am part of a group of Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators from all around the world who are training together in Kylie Bertucci’s Demonstrator Support Program 2019-2020 to grow and improve our Stampin’ Up! Businesses.

Each month we join in a fun Blog Hop together, sharing our creations with each other and with many other people around the world.
After viewing my blog, please click on the blog links at the bottom of the page to hop on to see the awesome creations of the other Demonstrators in our training group.

I wanted to make some cards for a couple of friends of mine that are going through a really tough time at the moment because I wanted them to know that I'm thinking of them and praying for them.
It's wonderful to be able to show our support through our card making.

I decided that I would make these cards as part of my weekly Facebook Live today, using the beautiful Magnolia Lane Suite. If you would like to see how I made it, you can watch by clicking here. (My creative time starts at 41:00 minutes).

I love the combination of soft Petal Pink with the earthy tones of Mossy Meadow and Sahara Sand with the white Layering Square Dies to make the flower buds really pop.
I added a little "sending prayers" sentiment using the Itty Bitty Greetings stamp set and punched it out with the Classic Label Punch.

I coloured the flower buds using Calypso Coral and Old Olive Watercolour Pencils and an Aqua Painter. The Calypso Coral comes out very soft with the watercolouring and coordinates beautifully with the Petal Pink Cardstock. I then gently curled the flower petals with my Bone Folder.

After I took these photos I added some Wink Of Stella to the flower petals and some Pearl Basic Jewels to the Whisper White squares to add some bling.

You will find a complete list of the products I have used below, but first please Hop on to the next blog and see all the amazing projects made by the wonderful Demonstrators in our Training Group.
