Using white cardstock cut out the Royale Gate and snip the center so it will open and show the pretty piece of paper. Glue it down.
Stamp the Sweet Magnolia Buds spray and color. Using Memento New Sprout ink stamp the Sweet Magnolia flowers and then add color using Magenta Hue and Toffee Crunch. Stamp the leaves with Fern Green and color with Leaf Green and Magenta Hue. Cut out using coordinating dies and then place onto the mold. Spritz with water and run through the die cutting machine. Turn out onto the desk to dry. Form the flowers using hot glue and then decide on placement and glue down. Add glitter to the flowers and leaves and the card is finished.

Other Products: Die Cutting Machine, Hot Glue Gun, Dimensional Tape
Instructions: My finished card size is 5” x 7”. Make card base using white cardstock and cover with a piece of sheet 12B from the paper collection. Set aside while you work on the rest of the card.
Cut out the shadow piece of the gate using a piece of Sheet 11B of the paper collection. Using a piece of the Luxe Silver Cardstock cut out the detailed piece of the gate. Adhere the Silver cardstock to the shadow piece gluing around the edges so the gate will open. Using white cardstock, cut out the Happy Birthday Sentiment from the Ironwork Sentiments dies and glue down so that when the gates open you can see the sentiment. Using dimensional tape adhere the gate and shadow piece to the card front.
Stamp the Magnolia blooms using Memento New Sprout ink and then add Archival Magenta Hue to give just a bit of color. Stamp the leaves with Archival Fern Green and color with Archival Leaf Green with bits of Magenta Hue in places just to give the leaves a different look. Using the coordinating dies cut out the petals and leaves. Lay the blooms and leaves onto the mold, spritz with water and run through the die cut machine. Turn them out onto desk to dry. While they are still a bit damp, shape a bit more with the Flower Shaping Tools and pinch the tips together. Also twist one petal to make the center of the flowers. Once these are dry, they hold their shape. When dry I used Toffee Crunch to add a bit of color to the tip of the twisted part. I also cut off part of the twisted pieces so they don't stand up too far. Hot glue two petals together and then hot glue the center piece. Add glitter to the flowers and leaves and allow to dry.
Decide on flower placement on the card and hot glue to hold in place. The card is finished.
Thanks for staying with me to the end. Now if you would a little more inspiration, just head over to the Heartfelt Creations Blog and check out what the other design team members have created!
