Pressed Daisies

This card makes me smile. I also like the way it feels. The texture is wonderful. Do you like to use embossing folders on your cards? Thoughts?

Paper:

   Blushing Bride A-2, 3" Sq. (4)

   Mossy Meadow 3-7/8 x 4-5/8

Accessories:

   Square Lattice Embossing Folder

   Gold Faceted Gems

   Mini Glue Dots

   Adhesive

First, I stamped, punched, and adhered the daisies onto the All ABloom DSP. I used up the four 3" Squares for the daisies, and adhered them together using mini glue dots.

I then dry embossed the panel, using the Square Lattice Embossing Folder.

Next, I adhered the embossed panel onto the Mossy Meadow matte.

I then used dimensionals to attach it to the Blushing Bride card front.

Next, I stamped the sentiment below the panel, using Tuxedo Black Memento.

Lastly, I stamped the center of each daisy with a bit of Daffodil Delight, added a Gold Faceted Gem, and adhered a Basic White panel to the inside of the card.

There is a tutorial on SCS for this technique: Faux Pressed Flowers.

3-D Daisy

Daisies can brighten up anyone's day. Here is a daisy to say thank you to someone for their thoughtfulness. When was the last time you sent someone a card instead of a text? 

Stamps:

   Daisy Delight

Paper:

   Blushing Bride A-2

   Basic White 5-1/4 x 4 (2), Scraps

Ink:

   Blushing Bride

   Crushed Curry

   Pear Pizzazz

   Pineapple Punch

   Pretty in Pink

Technique:

   Punching

Accessories:

   Daisy Punch

   Clear Faceted Gems

   Dimensionals

   Adhesive

First, I stamped my sentiment in Pear Pizzazz. I like to do this first, so that I do not mistakenly stamp over it or fail to leave enough room for it.

I then stamped daisies randomly in the background, using Pretty in Pink, Blushing Bride, and Pineapple Punch.

Next, I stamped the daisy twice on Basic White scraps, using Crushed Curry, and punched them with the Daisy Punch.

I adhered both of them together with a dimensional between them. Notice that I staggered them so the daisy was full.

Next, I added the daisy to the card front with a dimensional.

Lastly, I stamped a couple of stems with Pear Pizzazz, added a clear faceted gem, and adhered a Basic White panel to the inside of the card.

Black & White Butterfly Note

 I made this background by adding drops of alcohol inks to glossy white paper. The purple does overpower the other colors, but the black and white images look great against it. What do you think?

Stamps:

   Butterfly Gala

Paper:

   Taken With Teal A-2

   Glossy White 5-1/4 x 4

   Whisper White 3-1/4 x 4 (2), 3/4 x 2-1/2, 5-1/4 x 4

   Tim Holtz Alcohol Inks

Technique:

   Alcohol Ink Drops

   Punching

Accessories:

   Butterfly Duet Punch

   Modern Label Punch

   Glue Dots

   Dimensionals

   Adhesive

First, I made the background and set it aside to dry. It does not take long at all.

In the meantime, I stamped my butterflies and sentiment. I used my punches to cut them out. The sentiment is attached with dimensionals, and the butterflies are adhered with glue dots.

I then adhered the panel to the card base, and the Whisper White panel to the inside of the card.

I had another background, so I added a daisy with a button for the center. I also brought out the yellow in the background by changing the card base. What do you think?
