 Hello, fellow stampers!

On YouTube, I have posted the second video in the beginner's stamping series. This video is comparing a few inks and how they work with alcohol markers and watercolor. Click on the image below to view the video!

 After the ink tutorial, I used Magnolia Blooms to create a simple but stunning birthday card. This stamp set from Stampin' Up!® is another beautiful and versatile stamp set. 

Here's the Card:


Here's What I Used:

  • Whisper White card stock (for the base and image piece)
  • Magnolia Blooms Stamp Set
  • Calypso Coral card stock 
  • Tombo glue
  • Stampin' Blends Calypso Coral
  • Memento Ink
  • Rhinestones
  • Paper trimmer/scorer



Here's What I Did:

  • Cut my cardstock down to 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" and scored at 4 1/4"
  • Cut my mat/image cardstock  down to 5 1/4 x 4"
  • Using the Magnolia Blooms stamp set by Stampin' Up! and Memento ink stamp the floral image. 
  • Let the ink dry for a moment before putting down a color wash of the Calypso Coral alcohol marker. 
  • Using the sentiment "Happy Birthday" from the same stamp set and the Memento ink stamp the sentiment in the bottom left-hand corner.
  • Glue the image piece onto the Calypso Coral mat and using dimensionals adhere that piece onto the card base.
  • Using the alcohol marker color the rhinestones. 
  • Once you have colored the rhinestones place them around the image.
  • The inside of the card needs to be stamped on the bottom right with Memento ink and after letting it dry a moment give it a color wash as well. 
  • Do the same with the envelope.
