Here’s the card I made for this week’s Splitcoaststampers Sketch Challenge using the Fresh As A Daisy Suite Collection. Daisies are one of my favorite flowers so I was immediately drawn to this suite.
This is the sketch I used. You can click on it to see the other projects posted for this week’s challenge.
Tips & Instructions
Lemon Lolly Card Base - 5 1/2 x 8 1/2, score at 4 1/4
Fresh As A Daisy Designer Series Paper - 2 pieces 5 1/4 x 4. Lay the 2 pieces on top of each other one facing up and one facing down. Cut on a diagonal (not tip to tip). You will have enough to make 2 cards.
Basic White Layer - 5 1/4 x 4, adhere the daisy pattern paper to the top portion and the solid piece to the bottom.
Lemon Lolly Strip - 6 x 3/4, emboss using the dots folder from the Basics 3D Embossing Folder. Lay across the seam and snip off the overhang. Adhere layer to card base.
Cut the daisy grouping from Basic White using the Cheerful Daisies Dies. Snip off to separate the large daisy. Add some Crushed Curry Ink to the center with a Sponge Dauber.
Cut 2 sets of leaves from the solid pattern Designer Series Paper.
Arrange flower and leaves on the card and adhere.
Stamp sentiment on scrap of Basic White with Pretty Peacock Ink and cut using the label die from the Cheerful Daisies Dies. Adhere to card with Dimensionals.
Add some Loose Frosted Dots to the label.
The Pretty Peacock color is so rich and vibrant and the Lemon Lolly base and embossed strip really pop against it.
On the inside layer stamp the sentiment with Pretty Peacock. The sentiment is from the Charming Sentiments Stamp Set. Use the daisy piece that was cut apart from the grouping. Use a sponge Dauber to add some ink to the center, cut a stem from Early Espresso and cut some leaves from the Designer Series Paper. Assemble and adhere to the inside layer.
