#Simplestamping Saturday Good Morning Magnolia Blooms. Yes, another week really has gone by. In the UK we have even hit summer (not before time!) Assuming the weather forecast is correct, temperatures are about to hit the 30s. Of course this does mean that the flower I am going to feature, is not around anymore, but it is such a stunning flower, we should embrace it for as long as possible.
As ever, on #Simplestamping Saturday, we take one project and make a Quick/Simple card, step it up to a more Casual Card and then throw everything at it to make an Avid Card. It is one of my favourite times of the week too. I love showing how your craft supplies can expand, without spending a tone of money, as your ability and confidence grow. Today is no different.
The Quick/Simple card uses items from the new Beginner Leaflet. This is a great resource as it includes some items that are exclusive to that publication, but also shows how to add a few more products as you expand into the main Annual Catalogue. I am concentrating on the Magnolia Blooms suite of products. These include some exclusive Memories & More card packs that include card blanks, envelopes and a mat layer. Simply add a stamped sentiment to one of the Memories & More cards, stick it to the card base and you are done.
For the more Casual Crafter I have introduced coloured card and the larger Good Morning Magnolia Stamp set. I fussy cut the floral image and coloured it with Blends, which really are my favourite colouring tool. A bit of Wink of Stella and a punched circle for the sentiment finished the card off perfectly.

Hi Liz, loved the more simple version of the Magnolia Lane card, would have liked some info on how you used the blends to colour the flower. Any tips? Jill
