Hello My Crafty Blog Friends and Visitors
How was your weekend? The weather was nice for our walk on Saturday. Today we are meeting friends at Mottisfont a National Trust property with a lovely garden near where we live. Later in the week we are meeting with our daughter and son-in-law and having a walk with them and their dog. It is going to be a busy week.
I have been using the Clarity Stamp Fresh Cut die the Art Nouveau Eden Roses Aperture die again.
I do love the Claritystamp Designer papers. They do seem to work very well with the dies.
This die is gorgeous. It cuts into the card so you can make the frame any size you want. I put some a double sided sticky sheet onto some Designer paper. The black die cut was attached. Then I cu the die a few more times so I could paper piece the design. The remaining sticky was covered with Microbeads. I feel they add to the stained glass look of the card.
Here are some of the blooms on our Magnolia tree which is out now in all its glory.
This is the whole tree. We have lived in our house for over twenty years. This year we found out that you can eat the petals. Who knew? To be honest we haven't tried.
I would like to enter the following challenges:
Have a good week. Stay safe and take care.
Happy crafting
Hugs Jackie

I love that die cut on your card Jackie.
OMG! Such a lovely Magnolia tree full with flowers. We have a yellow
Magnolia, but it always start with the flowers much later as the pink ones and it isn't such a tall tree.

Beautiful card. Hugs Anesha
What a gorgeously put together card, Jackie! Your inlay process is something I greatly admire! We have the same magnolia tree in our yard, but it is no where near as large as your beauty! Because we have several magnolia varieties in our area of central Florida, this tree is known as The Tulip Tree because the blooms look like tulips before opening all the way, and we cannot grow tulips here - so I suppose you could say we make do with what we have! LOL Thanks for sharing! hugs, de
I'm going to try again - for some reason, your blog would not accept my comment (how sad LOL) Your inlay process in this gorgeous card is so admirable, Jackie! Being able to piece all those colors together in such a magnificent way is something I enjoy seeing on other blogs, because it's beyond my abilities! LOVE IT! We have the same magnolia tree in our yard here in Central Florida. However, it is no where NEAR the size of your beauty! Because central FL has a variety of magnolias, we commonly know this tree as a Tulip Tree because the blooms resemble tulips until they are full opened. It's lovely, Jackie, and so is your card! thanks for sharing. hugs, de
Beautiful card, Jackie. The magnolia tree is stunning! xoxo
Such a pretty card Jackie and I love the magnolia! Shabneez x

Stay Safe
