Monday Blues: Cheerful Daisies Made My Day

Rosanne May 8, 2023 May 7, 2023Cards, envelopes, Friendship, Thank You

The Monday Blues are back! I mentioned in a post last week that the Fresh as a Daisy suite of products is a little more challenging for me than I anticipated. So I’m really trying to embrace it and come up with some interesting projects. Here’s what I came up with for today…a Thank You card.

Here’s the Details

Measure & Cut

Basic White Thick card base: 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″, score at 4 1/4″
Boho Blue card stock: 5 3/8″ x 4 1/8″ and 5 1/4″ x 4 (inside)
Fresh as a Daisy DSP: cut with the largest Scalloped Contours die
Basic White card stock: 5″ x 3 3/4″ (inside)

Assemble

Glue the Boho Blue panel to the card base.
Using dimensionals, adhere the DSP to the card base.
I added some glitter glue to the petals of the DSP for a little more sparkle.
Create the banner by cutting two of the label dies in the Cheerful Daisies dies. Trim the top from one of them and layer the second one over it to create a label as long as desired.
Glue the banner to the top right side of the card front.
Stamp a small daisy on Boho Blue card stock with Versa Mark ink and heat emboss with white embossing powder.
Stamp the sentiment and cut the individual words. Adhere them to the banner with mini dimensionals.
Add a small bow to the top of the banner.

I embellished the inside with a strip of DSP from the Countryside Inn Designer Series Paper.
The scalloped border is cut from the same Scalloped Contour die used on the card front. I just cut one of the longer borders and trimmed to fit.
I did the same with the envelope front. I think it ties in so nicely.

I hope that today’s Monday Blues, added a little smile to your Monday! I have another card using this suite lined up to share this week. Maybe that means it really is growing on me!!

Thanks for spending a little time here today. Hope your week goes well!

Take care,

Rosanne

Fold It Friday: Cottage Wreath Birthday Card

Rosanne May 5, 2023 May 4, 2023Birthday, Cards, Clean & Simple, Fun Fold

Comments: 3

Friday’s are for fun folds now. Each Friday, I will post a Fun Fold card to end the week. I must admit that I don’t make many of this type of card but with committing to posting one each week, I hope to step up my fun fold game. This week I’m starting off with a simple yet pretty birthday card featuring the Cottage Wreath bundle.

The “fun” in the fold is the way it opens…

Here’s the details…

Measure & Cut

Basic White Thick card base: 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″, score at 4 1/4″
Petal Pink card stock: 5 3/8″ x 4 1/8″ (cut 2)
Country Gingham DSP: 5 1/4″ x 4″
White Embossed closure strip: 4 1/2″ x 1 1/2″, score at 1 1/2″
Basic White card stock: 5″ x 3 3/4″ (inside)

Details

Glue the Petal Pink and Country Gingham DSP to the card base.
Emboss the closure strip with the crosshatch embossing folder from the Basic 3D Embossing Folders.
Score this strip at 1 1/2″ and glue this strip to the inside of the card as shown above.
Glue the inside Petal Pink panel to the inside of the card, covering the strip.
Stamp the inside sentiment from the Pansy Patch stamp set on the white panel.
Add a strip of DSP, Petal Pink and Soft Sea Foam card stock to the bottom of the sentiment panel.

Cut and layer three wreaths from the Cottage Wreath dies: I used Pear Pizzazz (retired), Old Olive and Soft Sea Foam card stock.
Add Loose Daisy Embellishments to the wreath.
Stamp the birthday sentiment and cut with a circle die or punch
Glue the sentiment circle to the back of the wreath.
Glue wreath to the closure strip.
Lastly, add a few pearls to the top right of the card.

Even though this is a simple fun fold, I think any recipient would appreciate the creativity.

Thanks for hanging out with me for my first “theme” week. I’m looking forward to sharing more next week.

Have a wonderful weekend,

Rosanne

It’s Tic Tac Toe Thursday. I created today’s board and I hope you’ll find some fun elements that spark your creativity. I’d love for you to join us. Here’s the board…

I chose the third row down: Die Cut, Free, Birthday

Here’s what I came up with…

As soon as I saw the Zany Zoo Suite in the new catalog, I was hooked. I couldn’t wait to get these products and was so happy that they were on the demonstrator pre-order. I just love the adorable “characters” featured on the stamp set and the Zoo Crew Designer Series Paper.

Here’s the details…

Cut & Measure

Lemon-Lime card base: 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″, score at 4 1/4″
Basic Black card stock: 5 3/8″ x 4 1/8″ and 5 1/4″ x 4″ (inside)
Zoo Crew DSP: cut with the largest Scalloped Contours die
Basic White card stock: 5″ x 3 3/4″

Assemble

Glue the Basic Black card stock to the Lemon-Lime card base.
Using ink and blending brushes, blend color on the dotted pattern from the Zoo Crew DSP. I used Lemon-Lime, Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie and Pool Party ink.
Glue to the card front.
Stamp the sentiment, from the Zany Zoo stamp set. Add a strip of Lemon-Lime card stock and a Basic Black scallop cut from the Scalloped Contours die.
Stamp the confetti image and color.
Adhere to the card front using dimensionals.
Color the elephant image from the DSP using Stampin’ Blends and fussy cut.
Add to the sentiment strip.
Embellish with sequins.

The inside sentiment is also from the Zany Zoo stamp set.
Add a strip of the ink blended DSP.
The envelope is also embellished with DSP and a Basic Black scalloped edge.

I hope you’ll head over to the Tic Tac Toe Challenge to see my Team O teammates’ wonderful card designs. I’m sure you’ll find lots of inspiration. Come and join the fun!

Take care,

Rosanne

What’s New Wednesday: Cheerful Daisies Birthday

Rosanne May 3, 2023 May 2, 2023Birthday, Cards

Comments: 3

Continuing with my new weekly theme series, I’m introducing What’s New Wednesday. Each Wednesday, I’ll be introducing something that is new to me. That may be a new product, new technique, new color, etc. This month is certainly full of “new” with the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog debut.

Today’s card features the new Cheerful Daisies Suite that’s now available.

To be honest with you, I was a bit challenged by this bundle. It was not exactly what I thought it would be but I know the more I create with it, the more it’s going to grow on me. I’m definitely going to challenge myself to come up with more projects using these products.

Here’s the details…

Cut & Measure

Moody Mauve card base: 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″, score at 4 1/4″
Fresh as a Daisy DSP floral pattern: 5 3/8″ x 4 1/8″
Fresh as a Daisy DSP solid pattern: cut with Scalloped Contours die
Basic White card stock: cut with Scalloped Contours die and 5 1/4″ x 4″ (inside)

Assemble

Glue the floral DSP to the card base.
Adhere the scalloped solid DSP to the card base with dimensionals.
Stamp the sentiment, from the Cheerful Daisies stamp set, onto the white scallop panel.
Glue to the card front.
Die cut the daisies.
Add color to the flowers using Blending Brushes: Bubble Bath ink for the flowers, Copper Clay for the centers and Wild Wheat ink for the leaves.
Glue to the card.
Add a few enamel dots.

OK…so after creating this card and writing this post, I’m much more “cheerful” about these daisies! I’d love to know what you think of them and if you have or are going to give them a try.

Thanks for looking in on my project today. I’ll be back tomorrow for the Tic Tac Toe Challenge…I hope you’ll join me!

Take care,

Rosanne
