Hello and thanks for visiting!
Today's card was created for the the Retro Rubber 'Flower Power' Challenge. This fabulous old stamp set called 'Embrace Life' is a fav of mine! from the early 2000's I think. It's a wood mount stamp set, so an oldie but a goodie. I've mixed it up with the new Happiness Abounds Stamp Set & Hues Of Happiness Designer Series Paper which looks like a painters canvas to me.

Assembly & Trix
* Die cut a 3 3/4 x 5 1/4 piece of Basic White cardstock with the edge die from the Blossoming Happiness Dies, #158823. The edge die is 5 inches long, so here's the ***Trix, extend the length of the die cut by first die cutting the edge of the cardstock then reposition the die so it 'fits in' to the grooves created from the first run through, and run it through the SCEM a second time.
* Repeat the above die cut with a 3 3/4 x 5 1/4 piece of Hues Of Happiness DSP, #158822, then adhere both pieces to the the Daffodil Delight card base.
* Stamp the flower from the Embrace Life stamp set with Memento Black Ink and colour with Melon Mambo Stampin' Blends Markers. Fussy cut and curl the flower edges with the Bone Folder. Then adhere with Multipurpose Liquid Glue. ***Trix, use Stampin' Dimensionals to adhere the last flower for an extra bit of dimension.
* Stamp the sentiment from the Happiness Abounds stamp set, #159238 with Memento Black Ink, *I loved how the font of this stamp set coordinated with the line art from the retired Embrace Life flower, perfect coordination! Adhere with dimensionals and embellish with gems.
