Pop Up Vase Card Using Magnolia Memory Dies




Today, I have an updated version of an old card to show you. I made the original in a class I attended, run by my friend and mentor Tracey Allen of Stamp & Scrap UK. It was one of the first Stampin' Up! cards I ever made!

This time I've used the Magnolia Lane suite. I love the colour combination of Mossy Meadow & Petal Pink! Unfortunately the papers are now retired, but I think it would look lovely in the Peony Garden DSP which is in the new Annual catalogue.

My flowers were cut using the Magnolia memory dies, and I also used a die cut from the Forever Flourishing dies to add some greenery. 

The greetings were from the Peaceful Moments stamp set, and mounted onto a die cut from the Painted Labels dies.

Ribbon Reel Box



I love Stampin’ Up! Ribbons, but mine usually end up slowly unravelling in a box & getting all tangled up! So when I saw fellow demonstrator, Esther Howard (Stampin’ Star Creations) making boxes to store them in, I thought what a good idea! So, I’ve now got all my ribbons organised & can see what I have when I open the box! Much better! 


I’ve redesigned the box, to make it a little easier for me, and been brave enough to even make my first video! My video technique, particularly staying in shot, needs to improve, but it’s a start! 


Hope you like it!
