Field of Daisies Birthday Card

Hello Crafty Friends! Laurie here again! I am sharing my Field of Daisies Birthday Card using the Fresh As a Daisy Suite by Stampin’ Up! This Suite includes the Cheerful Daisies Stamp Set, the Cheerful Daisies Dies, Fresh As a Daisy 12” x 12” Designer Series Paper and Adhesive-Backed Solid Gems.

The Details of My Card

My card was for a swap, and I decided to use the Fresh As a Daisy Suite for it. I love how the big daisy die is one piece making it easy to cut out a garden of happy daisies in seconds!

Once I die cut the daisies from Basic White cardstock, I used my sponge daubers to dab some Lemon Lolly in their centres to give them depth. I also dabbed some Pecan Pie to the edges of the Lemon Lolly piece on which I used the Timeworn Type Embossing Folder.

Next, to add to my focal point, I added a stitched circle of the DSP behind my daisies, almost like a blue sky in a field of dasies. From this, I added the sentiment stamped in Garden Green and some Garden Green die cut greenery.

To tie in my colour scheme, I added a piece of DSP between my focal point and the Lemon Lolly piece.

The only embellishments that I used were the Adhesive-Backed Solid Gems that came in the Suite.

My Serene Birthday Card - A birthday card with a girl holding flowers
My Serene Birthday Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing my second card using Serenity by Conie Fong Art & Design called My Serene Birthday Card. The Design Team members are celebrating Girls/Ladies this weekend with all things feminine! So, I picked this beautiful image to celebrate, and I coloured her twice! I will post my other card at the end.

The Details of My Card

For My Serene Birthday Card, I decided to create a mini slimline card to show that you can create different sized cards with the same image. I made my card size a little larger than a normal mini slimline to fit all my elements, but it can still fit in a No. 10 envelope.

I used the Secret Garden paper again for my colour choices in her colouring with a slight variation on her flowers from my first card. Clear Star Gelly Roll Pen was used for her necklace and Wink of Stella for the butterfly’s wings to add some shimmer.

Next, I went with the Photo Play dies for my background. One of the dies is shaped like a tag, but I wanted to use it for the green piece behind her. So, I snipped off the tag part and hid that part beneath the sentiment piece. The two top horizontal banners were remnants from my first card, and I didn’t want them to go to waste. Plus, they gave a finished edge to the top while tying in the colour scheme.

For the next step, I stamped the sentiment in Gorgeous Grape onto a tag cut out from the P13 paper pad.

I thought the leafy vine going from my girl to the sentiment tied everything together so nicely while adding interest.

Finally, I added a scattering of brass butterflies for embellishments.
