Today’s card is a “stepped up” version of yesterday’s Simple Sunday card.  Here is a side-by-side photo of the two.

Just by adding a few layers and embellishments, you will create a card that the avid crafter will love.

The changes to this are are a strip of Designer Series Paper, an addition Stitched Oval, a sentiment, and a double bow.  I also want to point out that I embossed the card base with the Tasteful Textile Embossing Folder.

Silver Foil Sheets
2″ Circle Punch
Stitched Be Mine Dies
Stitched Shapes Dies
Silver Edged Ribbon

I stamped the image with VersaMark and heat embossed with Silver Embossing Powder.  In the new Annual Catalog, the embossing powders are only sold in groups of three.

I also “dressed up” the inside of the card.

Good Morning Magnolia – Makeover Monday

Welcome to Makeover Monday!!

Greeting card created with the Good Morning Magnolia stamp set for Makeover Monday. #Stampin' Up, #Stampin' Gala, #Handmade Cards, #Heat Embossing, #Alcohol Markers

Today’s Makeover Monday card has just a few differences than yesterday’s Simple Sunday card.  

To start with, I stamped and die cut the image on a piece of Basic White that measures 2-3/4 X 3-1/2.   After coloring the image, I adhered it with Dimensionals, on a piece of Basic White that was embossed with the Subtle EF.

I added extra sentiment die cuts in Seaside Spray.  

Finally, the Tasteful Textile Embossing Folder is added for the background.
