Dies, dies everywhere at Magnolia Stamp Lovers

Hello!

Today it is my day to show you my project for Magnolia Stamp Lovers. Our theme this time is to use dies on your project. With 17 grandchildren I am always in need of birthday cards and with 14 of those being boys my Edwin stamps get used a lot!

I chose to use Pirate Edwin for my image. Since I don’t have the Barrel, Anchor and skull stamp I sat him on the steps. For my card I used Spellbinders Grand Nestabilities Labels 1 and ran them ALL through my Grand Calibur at the same time! What a great machine.

I used the following copics to color Edwin.

  • Skin – E13, E11, E00, E000, R11
  • Pants, shoes & hat – N8, N6, N4, N2
  • Shirt – YG99, YG95, YG93, YR24, YR21, YR20
  • Hair – E39, E35
  • Steps – N5, N3, N1

For the inside of my card I added a gift card envelope along with some Pirate gems from my stash.

The sentiment was made using SSD Label Accents and Fancy Tags stamps. They sure stamp nice don’t they?
