Hello there, Friends!! It’s been a week and I FINALLY got a chance to stamp this evening! Getting some crafty time in always lifts my spirits, how about you?
I saw this darling sketch over at Sunday Stamps today and knew at once I wanted to play along:
Isn’t the sketch darling?? I’m not sure if I’m more in love with the layout, or the flower they used for it, lol! Either way, I was inspired to play along!
The fine print says to keep it to a one layer card so that’s what I did. I had to inlay my flower to do it, but I did it!!
I layered my pattern paper over my card base, then die cut the white layer with both the stitched edge die and the daisy die. Once I adhered the white layer to my base, I simply ran a scrap of my pattern paper through the Big Shot with the Daisy die and inset the cut pieces into my white layer! Easy Peasy! I love the little die cut dot in the center…SO cute!!
It’s a lighthearted and fun card, I picture sending it to someone who needs just a bit of encouragement. We all need THAT from time to time!
I don’t recall exactly where I picked up the flower sequins but they sure are cute and a very fitting accent for my card today!
I’m also entering my card in The Challenge: They are having a fun ‘anything goes’ challenge…love those!
I’m also entering it over at CASology whose theme this week is Spring! I LOVE Spring colors!
Thanks for stopping by!
Wishing you joy and blessings!
