Insert the large So Saffron rectangle into the Magnolia 3D Embossing Folder. Place the folder with the cardstock inside on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine and run through the machine.
Make sure you have some paper (Grid Paper works great) at your work space.to protect the work surface. The Stampin' Blends Markers will bleed through the cardstock that you are coloring so you need to protect your work surface.
Place the dry embossed magnolia So Saffron rectangle on the work paper and start coloring with the Stampin' Blends Markers. The markers have a brush tip for coloring in larger areas and a fine tip for coloring in smaller areas.
Use the Dark So Saffron Stampin' Blends to color in the centers of the dry embossed magnolia flowers.
Adhere the 1-1/4" x 4" piece of World Of Good Specialty Designer Paper to the bottom of the dry embossed and colored So Saffron rectangle.
Cut a 4-1/2" piece of Mossy Meadow 3/16" Braided Linen Trim.
Lay the trim across the designer paper/cardstock so it covers the seam. Flip the layers over and fold the ends of the trim over. Adhere the ends of the trim in place with pieces of Tear & Tape Adhesive.
Remove the protective backing from the Tear & Tape strips and add Stampin' Seal to the back of the So Saffron rectangle. Adhere it to the front of the Mossy Meadow card.
Mount the "thanks," "hello," or "thinking of you" sentiment from the Good Morning Magnolia Set on Block C. Ink it up with the Mossy Meadow Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of one end of the vanilla strip, leaving room to punch it out.
Unlock the Timeless Label Punch. Holding the punch upside down so you can see the punching area, slide the stamped sentiment into the punch and get it centered in the punching area. Punch.
Use Stampin' Dimensionals to adhere the sentiment punch out to the front of the card so it is centered over the trim on the card on the left side.
Mount the single magnolia bud image from the Good Morning Magnolia Set on Block C. Ink it up with the Mossy Meadow Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of the So Saffron square.
Pick out the single bud die from the Magnolia Memory Dies. Put it on top of the stamped bud image on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine so the bud image is centered. Run through the machine.
Use Stampin' Dimensionals to adhere the magnolia bud cut out to the front of the card so the bottom of the bud is tucked under the top right side of the sentiment punch out.
Pick out the two solid leaf dies from the Magnolia Memory Dies. Put them on top of one of the strips of World Of Good Specialty Designer Paper on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine. Make sure the dies do NOT overlap. Run through the machine.
Peel the protective backing off of the Adhesive Sheets rectangle. Adhere the Adhesive Sheets rectangle to the black and foil grid side of the remaining World Of Good Specialty Designer Paper strip. Be sure to leave the other protective backing in place for now.
Pick out one large and one small detailed leaf die from the Magnolia Memory Dies. Put them on top of the remaining strip of World Of Good Specialty Designer Paper on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine so the green mottled side of the paper is up. Make sure the dies do NOT overlap. Run through the machine. Use the Take Your Pick Die Brush Tip and Take Your Pick to remove the pieces.
Carefully remove the protective backings from the backs of the detailed leaf cut outs. Adhere them and the solid leaf cut outs to the front of the card by sliding them under the magnolia bud cut out and sentiment punch out to adhere them in place as shown.
Cut a 2-1/2" piece of the Mossy Meadow 3/16" Braided Linen Trim.
Slide one end of the trim piece under the trim already on the card front just to the right of the sentiment punch out. Tie in place with a half knot. Trim the ends.
