A Fun Wall Frame

Before I share today's project, please note that I changed one date from my previous post.  Our Christmas Cards Retreat will be on Sunday, October 6 (not the following week) and you'll need to pay to register by September 27.  OK, now for today's project.
I have this wall frame that has 5 sections in it, for photos or memorabilia and I like to use it to show off some of our beautiful Designer Series Papers.  When we did all our reconstruction work and my studio improvements, I was hesitant to put too many nail holes back into the wall and had taken down my frame.  Before my Summer Open House Party, I realized I was really missing it, to display the papers.  I took down a little hoop/wreath and moved it and then used that nail to rehang my fun frame.  I filled it with some of our gorgeous Magnolia Lane DSP and then added a few fun touches.  Everyone raved about it!  I was blown away.  It actually became one of the most popular projects I had on display, along with my 2 magnolia wreaths.  Here's my frame:

I love how this turned out and it really is fun to have in my studio.  I can enjoy it every day.

If you missed out on the list of party winners, you can find it here in my previous post.

Stamparatus Magnolias ... So Fun ... and Easy!

At my July Scraps and Prayers class, I'll be teaching how to use the Stamparatus and Simply Scored tools to create a super fun card ... with magnolias, of course.  Here are the cards I've made:

I actually made 2 versions of my design.  In case you don't want to mess with trying to tie a little bow, you could punch out a couple of leaf trios.  Some days are bow days and some just aren't.

I used scoring lines on my scrap template to determine the best placement for the text, in the center of my square.  Once I had that figured out, I could use my Stamparatus to keep the placement exactly right for my cards.

I added a touch of stamping on layers inside my cards, as well.

I really like how my cards turned out.  I love the little blossoms.

It's always nice to have a little stash of 'Thinking of You' cards. 

Before you go, be sure to scroll down to see my reminders AND to see something new --- about a special drawing!

Good Morning Magnolia 2 Ways

I have more magnolias for you today and 2 more ways to design your cards.  Enjoy!

Here's a simpler version, on a Crumb Cake card base.  We'll be making this one at my July 8 Scraps and Prayers class.  I love it on Crumb Cake.

Here's a stepped-up version, on a Mossy Meadow card base.

For an added touch of fun, I added more layers to the inside of my cards.

Of course, you can change the sentiment and try other colors, as well.  Which version do you like the best?

A Cute Little Magnolia Banner

I have a banner to share with you today.  I thought it would be fun to showcase our beautiful Magnolia Lane DSP by making a cute little banner.  It features a couple of little magnolia blossoms, as well.  I intentionally kept it simple because I wanted to let the paper be the star of the show.

The rest of the post today is all about upcoming events, as well as special order incentives for June orders between June 4 and June 24.  To earn these incentives, you will need to place your orders during this time.  The following incentives will be available by orders placed with me - either in person, at my Open House, or online through my Demonstrator Business Web Site.
