Soft subtle Daisy delight thank you card

Hello everyone,

I hope you are all well this Tuesday morning.

My card today has been made for another challenge, this time its a colour challenge on Stampin for All over on Facebook. We were given Garden Green, So Saffron & Petal Pink

Take a piece of petal pink cardstock that measures 5 7/8" x 8 1/4" and create a card base, by folding it in half on the long side. Ink up the small closed flower image in petal pink and stamp all around the edge of the card front.

On a piece of whisper white that measures 5 3/8" x 3 5/8", stamp the sentiments in the bottom right hand corner. Then add the so saffron flower to the bottom and to top edges.

Stamp some leaves in the centre of the cardstock, place them towards the edge as yiu want them to peek out from behind the flower. Add this to the card base.

Using the petal pink, stamp out two of the large daisy images onto somw scrap and then cut out using the daisy punch. Lightly curl the edges with a bone folder. Offset layer the two images on top of each other to create a full daisy flower. Add this to the centre of the card covering the ends of the leaves.

Take a clear faceted gem and colour it in using the so saffron dark blends pen. Once dried add this to the centre of the flower.

How Beautiful a Day Can Be Greetings Card using Stampin Up Supplies

Happy Sunday,

Today the sun has made a small appearance here in Huddersfield, although I'm sure it's not going to last as I can see some darker clouds blowing in...

So, I needed a quick and simple card to give to a friend to say thanks and although this sentiment doesn't say thank you, it is implied and has allowed me to write a more specific note inside.

By raiding my scraps I managed to turn the simple sentiment into a dimensional focal point.

Take a piece of sahara sand cardstock a d create a standard card base. Add a piece pf DSP to the front which measures 5 5/8" x 3 7/8" and a piece of very vanilla that measures the same to the inside.

Stamp the sentiment in early espresso onto a pieceof very vanilla that is 2 1/4" x 1 1/4". Now, using a selection of coloured cardstock build up layers by increase each piece by 1/8". You can add as many or as few as you wish.

Add this to the centre of the card and add a strip of left over dsp to the inside to create a little more interest.

Here's a list of all the supplies I used in today's card, click on the images to head over to my online store....

Pop of Petals Birthday Card using Stampin Up Products

Happy Saturday,

Today is so miserable... the rain has not stopped pouring all day so far, so we are definitely staying in today... so, it would be rude if I didnt steal an hour in the craft room whilst imogen has a sleep!!!

Today's card is a simple one, sometimes you don't need to go mad with design to get a great card.

Create a card base by folding a piece of whisper white that measures 4 1/8 x 11 3/4 in half on the long side.

Stamp the cluster of three flowers all over the front of the card in highland heather to create a fun background.

On a scrap stamp a large flower, one of each of the following colours - Flirty Flamingo, Poppy Parade and Mango Melody. Punch out using the coordinating punch.

Take the sentiment and stamp in flirty flamingo, and to a strip of mango melody and adhere to the card. Add the flowers tk the right-hand side of the sentiment in a cluster and add rhinestones to the centre.
