Greeting cards with the new Elle's Studio Magical Memories collection

Hello, we are celebrating a Week of Magic over on the Elle's Studio blog and I created a couple of greeting cards with the brand new Magical Memories collection to celebrate. With all its patterned papers, die-cuts, puffy stickers and more, I have found it perfect to make fun cards for any occasion!

Supplies: Magical Memories Die Cuts, Magical Memories Label Stickers, Magical Memories Heart and Star Puffy Stickers, Magical Memories Puffy Stickers, Magical Memories Puffy Circle Stickers, Magical Memories 6 x 8.5 inch Paper Stack, Title Builder Vol. 6 Puffy Word Stickers, Make A Wish Stamp, Nesting Tags Metal Die, Banners Metal Die

Always a good source for sketches, both of my cards are based on sketches found in the Spring 2022 issue of Scrapbook and Card Today magazine. 

For this first one, I combined several patterned papers from the Magical Memories 6 x 8.5 inch Paper Stack and used a couple of my go-to cardmaking dies, the Nesting Tags Metal Die and Banners Metal Die (also from Elle's Studio). 

Embellishing the tag, focus of my card, was my favorite! I combined circles from the Magical Memories Puffy Circle Stickers with a bow from the Magical Memories Puffy Stickers for the cutest effect. The sentiment is from the Magical Memories Die Cut pack. The use of foam squares under the different layers adds dimension and the twine bow adds texture. 

For this second card, it all started with a square frame from the Magical Memories Die Cuts and I cut matching squares from the paper stack. A festive bouquet of balloons pops out of the frame bringing the focus on the sentiment.

For the sentiment, I found just the right word in the Title Builder Vol. 6 Puffy Word Stickers and paired it with a sentence from the Make A Wish Stamp set (an oldie currently on sale).

With their happy colors and theme, these cards are bound to put a smile on their recipients's face, don't you think?
