Craftin Desert Divas - Magnolia Forever

Hey there,

I'm just so excited to share this card with you today! This new floral stamp set from CDD is absolutely gorgeous, and was designed by my dear friend Anna, she's very talented and so nice!

I first started by creating the background panel. And for that, I die cut several scalloped borders from white cardstock, and let them together using tape at the back. Then I attached the entire panel on a white card base using double sided tape.

I die cut an octagon shape from white cardstock, glued it on a piece of patterned vellum and then trimmed the excess. Stamped my images on white cardstock using alcohol marker friendly black ink, fussy cut them, made some cuts here and there so I could arrange the wreath around the octagon shape, and colored them using two shades of pink and two shades of green.

Die cut the word Happy twice: from gold glitter cardstock and from white cardstock. Glued both pieces together. Gold heat embossed the second part of my sentiment and die cut it using a banner die.

Then I assembled everything. Attached the octagon shape to the background panel using translucent foam squares. Glued the flowers in place using glue dots. Attached the sentiment banner at the bottom right corner, and glued the word Happy on the wreath using foam squares. And to finish the project, I simply added some clear sequins here and there around the wreath.
