Blue Daisies

Blue Daisies…
 

Hello friends and welcome!  Today’s post is a double feature…two cards for the price of one! lol πŸ˜‚ 

   This first card features the “Daisy Background Stencil” and the “Sweet Daisy Die” both from Waffleflower Crafts.  This stencil is a two step stencil set.  I placed stencil #1 over a trimmed piece of Neenah solar white cardstock and ink blended the area using inks from The Stamp Market. Supplies will be listed at the end of the post.  I repeated the process for stencil #2.  Next, I die cut the Waffleflower Crafts “Pinking Circle Frames Die” from the coordinating cardstock.  In addition to the circle die, I die cut the pieces from the Daisy also using coordinating cardstock.  I then stamped the sentiment and white heat embossed.  After assembly the pieces onto the background and adhering, I added a few white dots the the flower using a white gel pen as well as adhering a few clear drops.



For the second card, I repeated the process of ink blending over the Daisy stencil but this time I die cut the middle of the background using the Waffleflower Crafts “Organic Frame Die”.  For the sentiment, I hot foiled the “Hello Spring foil plate” onto a piece of coordinating cardstock.  I then die cut several blooms from the “Organic Frame Die” and adhered to the background before assembling items and adhering to card base.  For an extra detail, I added a few yellow enamel dots to the blooms.

Thanks so much for stopping by!…wishing everyone a lovely day…take care!

Sunshine and Rainbows


 

“Sunshine and Rainbows and Paper Crafts…these are a few of my favorite things” πŸŽΆπŸŽ΅πŸŽΆπŸ˜„

   Hello Friends and welcome!  I think it’s been more than a minute since my last post lol 🀣 but I’m so glad to be sharing this fun project with you today featuring a few Taylored Expressions products including stencils, stamps, and die cuts.  This trio of products are the “Make a Rainbow” stencil, “Over the Rainbow” sentiments, and “Rainbow Cloud duo”.

  To start, I placed the stencil over a piece of Neenah solar white and ink blended using several The Stamp Market inks including salmon, melon, sunshine, and apple.  Once the rainbow was ink blended, I took Salvaged Patina Distress ink and lightly ink blended the sides blending the ink toward the rainbow image.  I then stamped several images and sentiment using Pinkfresh Studio warm buff dye ink.  For the clouds, I die cut them using Lawn Fawn pixie dust cardstock.  Don’t you just love mixing and matching different products from different companies to create with?! πŸ˜„πŸ‘πŸ» To add a little more detail to the card, I die cut the panel using MFT’s wonky stitched rectangles before adhering the clouds and heart to the panel, then adhering the panel to a Neenah desert storm card base.  

  Thanks so much Friends for stopping by…Hope this card inspires you to find your inner Rainbows!…take care!
