What is your favorite flower? I do love a good daisy and I also love tulips…..I guess both I have two favorites. Today’s cards features the Daisy Lane stamp set that coordinates with both of our Daisy Punches. Enjoy!

• Begin with a 5 ½ x 8 ½ ” piece of Night of Navy cardstock. In landscape position, (aka the long side), score at 4 ¼”.   Fold and burnish.  This will create a card base.
• Cut a 4 x 5¼’ piece of Seaside Spray or Balmy Blue cardstock and attach it to the card base.
• Cut a 3¼ x 3¾” piece of Basic White cardstock and randomly stamp the ferns in Garden Green Ink on the lower left side of the white panel.
• Stamp the large Daisy in Night of Navy ink twice.  Punch out using the Daisy Punch.  Layer the together, off-setting the petals. 
• Stamp the small daisy in Night of Navy ink 4 times and punch out with the Medium Daisy to create two small flowers, off-setting the petals to create a 3-D effect.
• Attach all the daisies over the ferns on the card front.  (see image)
• Stamp “You are Amazing” from the In Bloom bundle in Night of Navy ink and crop it out with the label die.
• Attach to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

These stamps and punches will make creating spring cards a breeze, a warm breeze! LOL They will no doubt enhance your crafting and be a great addition to your supplies. Stop back to tomorrow for more crafting fun!

I had a very nice surprise on Saturday! Yes there was sunshine, but the doorbell rang and it was my daughter. She drove in from Chicago to surprise me for my birthday! What a special treat that was. My son was already home from college and so we had a fun playing games and we all had a drink to toast yet another year older!

Yesterday we hung out in my craft room and made cards together. Well, not my son and husband! LOL This is one of my cards. Tomorrow I will share with you the card my daughter created.

• Begin with a 5¼  x 11” piece of Bumblebee cardstock. In landscape position, (aka the long side), score at 5 ½”.   Fold and burnish.  This will create a tent fold card base.
• Cut a 4 x 5 ¼’ piece of Basic White cardstock and attach to the card front.
• Next cut a 2 ¾ x 4 piece of  Early Espresso cardstock and use the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss machine to dry emboss it with the Hammered Metal embossing folder.  Attach to the lower part of the white panel.
• Next cut a narrow strip of Basic Black cardstock and add it across the Early Espresso hiding the seam.
• Stamp the large sunflower from the Celebrate Sunflowers bundle in Memento Black ink onto a piece of Bumblebee cardstock.  Cut it out using the coordinating die from the bundle.
• Cut the Sunflower outline with Basic Black cardstock and use liquid glue to attach it to the sunflower.  Next cut the center of the sunflower with Early Espresso cardstock and attach it to the sunflower with a Stampin’ Dimensional.
• Add the sunflower to the upper portion of the card base. 
• Stamp “hello there” in Memento Black ink on a scrap of Basic White cardstock and punch it out using the Double Oval punch.
• Again use the Double Oval punch to cut the scallop oval from a scrap of Bumblebee cardstock and attach it to the lower portion of the card.

What a fun set to create some springtime cards! I really enjoyed making cards with my daughter and am so blessed she spent the weekend with us. I can’t wait to share her creation with you tomorrow.

Thanks for stopping by!

Good morning everyone! It is time to think spring! I love how the birds have become my new alarm clock and am totally enjoying this warm weather. Today’s card features the Field of Flower bundle and I am hoping it gets you in the mood to plant some flowers, but if not perhaps you will be moved to create a card!

• Begin with a Highland Heather card base that measures 5½ x 8½. In landscape position, (aka the long side) score at 4¼.  Fold and burnish.  This will create a card base.
• Cut a 4 x 5 ¼” panel of Basic White cardstock and stamp “Always in my heart” from the Field of Flowers bundle in Highland Heather ink. 
• Next, stamp several dragonflies in Shaded Spruce ink.
• Stamp the grass in Shaded Spruce along the bottom of the white panel. Stamp the stems for the flowers in Granny Apple Green ink on the lower left of the grass.  Stamp some of the larger leaves from the stems along the grass in Granny Apple Green ink.
• Stamp the flower tops in Highland Heather ink, fussy cut with paper snips and add them to the top of the stems.
• Stamp the small flowers several times in different colors and punch out using the coordinating punch with the bundle.  I used Daffodil Delight, Highland Heather and Calypso Coral.
• Glue the punched out flowers randomly along the grass.

This was a super easy spring card that is sure to bring Joy to anyone who receives it. The Field of Flowers set will be retiring at the end of this month, so be sure to add it to your collection before it is too late.
