It’s Blog Hop time again and this time we are working with a sketch.
If you are starting the hop here, welcome and I hope you like what I have created.
I have made a couple of cards for this hop and the first one is using the ‘Daisy Delight’ stamp set.
I started by stamping my daisy twice onto Whisper White cardstock using Melon Mambo ink. I then coloured the image using Flirty Flamingo Blends before punching out using the coordinating Daisy Punch. I have curled the daisy petals using my bone folder and overlayed them using a Stampin’ Dimensional between the 2 flower pieces. Next I stamped the stems on a piece of Whisper White card 3 times in Old Olive ink. I’ve then stamped the small daisy outline and solid images using Flirty Flamingo ink. I have cut out a piece of Flirty Flamingo DSP (from the Brights 6×6 DSP pack) the same size as the Whisper White. I’ve adhered the dsp to a piece of Melon Mambo card and then added the main Whisper White piece. I wrapped a piece of Silver Metallic Edge ribbon around the Melon Mambo card and then adhered to the Old Olive base card. Next I’ve glued the Daisy in place using Multipurpose Liquid Glue before adding a Perennial Essence Floral Centre embellishment. Lastly I stamped my sentiment onto a piece of Melon Mambo card using Versamark ink and then heat embossed in White embossing powder before mounting over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
For my second card I’ve used the lovely ‘Band Together’ bundle.
I started by stamping the flower onto Whisper White card using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and the main flower onto a scrap of Whisper White. I have then coloured the images using Old Olive, Purple Posy and Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends before die cutting the extra flower using the coordinating dies. I have cut a piece of Purple Posy DSP (from the 2018-2020 In Color 6×6 DSP pack) the same size as the Whisper White image piece which I have then adhered to a larger piece of Whisper White card. Next I adhered the main image piece over the top of the dsp before cutting out one of the gorgeous bands in Daffodil Delight and adhering on top. I have trimmed the overhanging edges to be even with the Whisper White card and then adhered to my Purple Posy base card. Next I stamped the sentiment in Memento Tuxedo Black onto Whisper White card and die cut with the coordinating dies before mounting to my card using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I then mounted the flower image over the top of the full image using Stampin’ Dimensionals and finally added some 2019-2021 In Color Faceted Dots to complete my card.
