STAMPIN' UP! - 2 cards w/Magnolia Lane DP

I just realized I hadn't posted anything yet this week!  I had these cards all lined up in a folder but forgot to put them on my blog.  I took an online retreat Saturday and have been busy making up cards from what I learned so my focus was obviously on doing those.


This is not a card from those classes.  It was a very quick and easy card to make though.  I simply matted a 3 x 3 piece of Magnolia Lane DP on a piece of white card stock and adhered that to a black card base.  On a separate piece of white card stock I stamped the sentiment.  Inside the card is a 4" x 5 1/4" piece of white card stock for a sentiment and to write my message.


Using the same  size pieces of paper, I colored the flowers on the dp with a Real Red Blender from SU.  This will make a great Christmas card.  Since my Christmas stamps are all put away for now, I will add a sentiment to the front and inside when I am preparing the rest of my Christmas/Holiday cards.

Thank you for stopping by today!

Both your cards are lovely, but I think that Christmas card is a stunner. I love the rich red of the poinsettias against the dark background.

Wow! What a difference in the look between the two cards when you colored the flowers. I've never done that; something that i will have to consider if I need to change the DP up.

So simple and so pretty, Vicki. That is very lovely paper.

And here are the final four cards you get from  this  video by Karen Titus.    I may try to do this with some papers from some other collect...
