Storybook Friends for Easter

 Hello and thanks for visiting!

I love monochromatic colour schemes.  The Bloom Impressions Designer Series paper was a freebie from Sale-A-bration, and it was my jumping off point for colour inspiration.  The new Mini Corrugated 3D Embossing Folder, #165559 looks a bit like furrows in a vegetable patch, so I thought of the cute little guys from the Storybook Friends Stamp set, #164448

Daisy Daydream Paper Pumpkin Alternative

 Hello and thanks for visiting!

Today's card uses the Paper Pumpkin supplies from the March 2025 Kit called Daisy Daydream.  I like to make one of each card in the kit and then try my hand at some alternatives.  The inspiration for the card is a template from page 22 in the current Annual Catalogue.  I switched it up a bit since I was using one of the single layer cards from the kit.  

The sentiment comes from My Small Business Stamp Set, #163720.  It has many different fonts, and some fun sentiments - 'made with love, you've got great taste' & a cute shopping bag and present perfect for colouring - it's not just for demonstrators :)   And it's on the Last Chance List, find the link below. 

Did you know you can get refills for the Paper Pumpkin Kits if you're a Paper Pumpkin Subscriber.  Click here to see the Daisy Daydream Refill and Click Here to sign up for a monthly kit.




***  The Trix  ***

*  With Paper Snips Scissors, #103579 cut some of the greenery off three daisies.  There's lots of daisies in the kits so choose the ones you like. :) 

*  Stamp the 'thanks' from My Small Business Stamp Set with Lost Lagoon ink on Basic White cardstock.

*  Use the 1 3/4 inch punch to punch out the stamp.   

*  Stamp the hive image from the kit with Lost Lagoon ink, *Trix, stamp off first to create a lighter image on the card front.

*  Adhere the thanks circle with glue, just off centre so the hive image peeks out just a bit.    *Trix, put glue on the centre of the circle only so you can tuck a daisy in behind it. 

*  Adhere the top daisy with glue but, *Trix, curl the edges on the daisy before tucking it in behind to add a little bit of dimension. 

*  Adhere the other two daisies with dimensionals, curl the edges first with a bone folder.

*  Add a few Iridescent Pearls Basic Jewels, #158987 for a bit of bling.
