Crafty with Caly: Etched Magnolia Blossoms
Hi friends! Isn’t this floral card by Caly Person in the latest edition of our Crafty with Caly blog series dreamy?! Be sure to read on and watch the video for all the details and enjoy!!
Hello Friends! I hope you love 3D flowers on cards because I have a fun one to share today using the Magnolia Branches Embossing Folder along with the new DieCember® Etched Magnolia Blossom dies!
I have a video to show how these fun Etched Magnolia Blossom dies are put together. I hope you’ll enjoy watching!
WATCH THE VIDEO:
I die-cut the pieces in white and ink-blended the petals to add color using Rosie Cheeks and Teeny Bikini inks. For the stamen and cone center, I used YG11 and YG17 Copic markers. The pieces are small so Copics are easier for me to add color on those elements. I also used a red colored pencil to add some veins and more dimension to the petals too.
After assembling three Etched Magnolia Blossoms, I embossed the Magnolia Branches Embossing Folder on some white Copic-friendly paper. You can leave it white or add colors in various ways – I opted for some quick Copic-coloring with some flicking to add color. This gives me a nice backdrop for my 3D flowers that I created.
To finish today’s card, I adhered my Etched Magnolia Blossoms, attached a sentiment strip from the Reverse Family Sentiment Strips set, and embellished my card with some iridescent sequins. I hope you like it! Thanks so much for spending time with me here today! Have a good one! ~Caly
