Delightful Daisy

SPRING countdown continues! Tomorrow is the first day of meteorological SPRING, so I’m ready to celebrate! The Delightful Daisy Suite is the perfect way to begin.

Delightful Daisy Designer Series Papers and Stamps Set

Stampin’ Up products are all coordinated for you to make designing and making these cards a DELIGHT!!

The Delightful Daisy Designer Series Papers has gorgeous designs that have lots of spring colors that coordinate with it. This card has the Designer Series Paper mounted on Wisteria Wonder. The sentiment and flower are from the Daisy Delight stamp set stamped in Flirty Flamingo.

The daisy stamp from the Daisy Delight stamp set was stamped twice in Berry Burst, then punched with Daisy Punch. A Clear Faceted Gem is the perfect touch for the center. I used Berry Burst Ink to watercolor on a piece of the Watercolor Paper, then mounted it on Berry Burst Cardstock. The sentiment is from the Colorful Seasons stamp set.

This is one of the cards we made in the Spring Into Stamping Class this week. The Daisy Delight Designer Series Paper made this card so quick and easy! A strip of the Daffodil Delight Double Stitched Ribbon set the card off perfectly!

Southern Serenade

Southern Serenade Parade of Colors!

The Southern Serenade Stamps Set from the Occasions 2018 Catalog just sings to me! Such a beautiful set and paired with the Stampin’ Blends it produces gorgeous projects.

This is colored with the Daffodil Delight and Old Olive Stampin’ Blends Combos. I adhered it to half of a Doily and the Petal Garden Designer Series Paper Stack, mounted on a sheet of Daffodil Delight Cardstock. I added a piece of the Daffodil Delight Double Stitched Ribbon for just the right accent. The sentiment is from the Southern Serenade Stamp Set, then cut out with a Stitched Shapes Framelit.

The Rich Razzleberry Stampin’ Blends Combo Set just makes the flowers pop! I used Sweet Sugarplum Cardstock and paper from the Color Theory Designer Series Paper Stack. The sentiment is from the Petal Palette Stamps Set. I used the Fresh Fig 1/8″ Sheer Ribbon for a contrast.

I entered this card in an online challenge, and I won!! Woohoo! Pool Party is one of my favorite colors, so that’s what I used here, as well as the Color Theory Designer Series Paper. I used the Banners For You Stamps and the coordinating Bunches of Banners Die Set for the sentiment.

I thought the Wood Textures Designer Series Paper Stack provided a great contrast with the Pink Pirouette. I used the new Simple Stripes Textured Impressions Embossing Folder to add a little more texture. Linen Thread is one of my favorite accents–so versatile!

Lovely lace and great sentiments really make this Southern Serenade Stamp Set a “not to missed” item to order!

Stampin’ Blends are incredible. They easily make me look like an artist! They’re available as a complete set, or you may purchase them singly or as a combo pack. Such a great variety of colors! You really need to see, feel, touch them to see what beautiful projects they produce.

There’s an upcoming Class where you can do just that!
