Daisy Slimline Card

I'm lovin' these Slimline cards!  It gives you so much more "room" to stamp with, and is perfect for the "picot-edge" die with the Ornate Layers Dies! And, the cool thing is, they fit into a business-size envelope, or you can make your own!! They do take a little more cardstock, but I think the expense is worth it!



Measurements:  

  • Bumblebee (N):7" x 8 1/2" (score along 7" side at 3 1/2")
  • Ornate Garden DSP (N): 3 1/4" x 8 1/4" 
  • Whisper White: 2 1/8" x 5 1/2"
  • Very Vanilla: 2 3/4" x 8 1/2"
  • Old Olive: Scraps

To Make This Card:  

  • Fold Bumblebee piece.  Attach DSP.
  • Cut "picot-edge" die from Whisper White piece.  Attach to card, where desired.
  • Punch 2 Daisy's and 4 Medium Daisy's from Vanilla cardstock.  Highlight centers with Bumblebee Ink and Sponge Dauber. 
  • Layer the 2 large Daisy's and 2 of the medium Daisy's together to create one, larger Daisy. And, the 2 smaller Daisy's together to create one small Daisy.  Arrange onto card as desired.
  • Cut several leaves from the Magnolia Memory Dies. Place where desired, flipping over when necessary.
  • Finish with Greeting stamped in Early Espresso and decorate with Playing with Pals Resin Dots.

Three Lavender Tulips

Oops, I somehow missed this card!  We may have done this card in club in the Spring???  I honestly don't remember.  But it IS a nice card made with the Ornate Frames and Timeless Tulips bundle!

Measurements & Products Used:
  • Whisper White: 1/2 sheet, Scraps
  • Gorgeous Grape: 1/4 sheet
  • Purple Posey: 3 1/2" x 5"

To Make This Card:
  • Cut Ornate "frame" from Gorgeous Grape cardstock. Cut Purple Posey from largest decorative Ornate "frame".  Layer together, then add to card.
  • Stamp 2 Large "tulips" in Highland Heather ink.  Punch out with Tulip Builder Punch.  Stamp away smaller "tulip" in Highland Heather.  You will need to "fussy cut" this piece.  Deepen flower "creases" with Gorgeous Grape Watercolor Pencil and Blender Pen.
  • Stamp 3 "leaves" in Mint Macaron.  Punch out with Tulip Builder Punch.  Stamp 3 "stems" (I curved one a little bit on the acrylic block).  These will need to be "fussy cut" as well.  Arrange these pieces onto Purple Posey piece, tucking the smaller "tulip" in behind, and the front large "tulip" popped up with Dimensionals.
  • Finish with a striped Gorgeous Grape bow, and a little Wink of Stella on the flowers.
