Inky Bee Stampers

It’s Thursday and that means it is time for another Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! I’m looking forward to seeing the projects that my team members have created for the Hop this week…I know their projects will be beautiful as always! If you are hopping over from Tara’s blog…welcome and thanks for stopping by!

I couldn’t help myself! I used the beautiful Cheerful Daisies Bundle, Fresh as a Daisy Designer Series Paper and the Cane Weave 3D Embossing Folder to create today’s card. The Cheerful Daisies Bundle is so versatile…I can’t seem to stay away from this Suite of products!

We have a color challenge for the Hop today. I used all five colors on my card.

I started off with a standard A2 card base in Wild Wheat and added a panel of Moody Mauve paper from the Fresh as a Daisy Designer Series Paper pack to the card front. I used the Cane Weave 3D Embossing Folder to emboss a panel in Boho Blue measuring 4-1/2″ x 3-1/4″.

I used the Cheerful Daisies Dies to die cut the large 3-flower image from Wild Wheat cardstock. I also die cut the detailed petal images – also in Wild Wheat. The flower centers were die cut from Copper Clay. The largest flower center was first stamped in Copper Clay ink before die cutting. The two smaller flower centers were dotted with a Copper Clay Stampin’ Blend to give them a little dimension. I first adhered the flower centers to each of the three flowers, then adhered the detailed die cut petals to each flower. This unit was then adhered to the Boho Blue embossed panel.

Before adhering the embossed panel and flowers to the card front, I used a small amount of Stampin’ Seal on the back of the embossed panel and wrapped Linen Thread around the panel three times, securing the ends to the back of the panel. The embossed flower panel was then adhered to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I tucked in three of the leaf sprigs in Copper Clay and Pebbled Path around the flowers. A double Linen Thread bow was tied to the wrapped thread. This is an all-occasion card…so no sentiments adorn the card.

For the inside panel I simply stamped the half daisy in Wild Wheat and added a Copper Clay flower center. The panel was adhered to a mat in Moody Mauve then adhered to the inside of t he card.

The same half daisy was stamped onto the envelope front and I added a piece of the Moody Mauve paper from the Fresh as a Daisy Designer Series Paper pack to the envelope flap.

This completes the card! You can download, save and print a copy of the pdf tutorial for this card by clicking on the image below.
