Daffodil Daydream

Hello again everyone,

Today I have been sorting out what products are retiring tomorrow and getting ready for some more great products in the next Annual catalogue. So I thought I would use some more retiring products again today. I am using the Daffodil Daydream stamp set (#157786).

I stamped the 2 different daffodil images with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) onto Basic White card (#159228). These were coloured with Stampin’ Blends - Daffodil Delight (#154883), Soft Sea Foam (#154902) and Soft Succulent (#155521). The co-ordinating Daffodil Dies (#157794) were used to cut these. I then cut the Soft Succulent from the Fine Shimmer Paper Pack (#160428), backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334), with a Forever Flourishing Die (#152714).

I dry embossed the Basic White card front with one of the Basics 3D Embossing Folders (#161598), then I daubered the edges with Daffodil Delight ink (#154883). This was attached to the Daffodil Delight card (#121680) and attached to the Basic White base card.

The smaller daffodil image was attached with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) then the shimmery leaves were added. The other daffodils were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

“Thinking Of You” from the Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763) was stamped with Daffodil Delight ink then cut with a Stylish Shapes Die (#159183) the Gold trim is from the Simply Elegant Trim (#155766). The sentiment was attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensioanals (#144108).

I used Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) on the daffodils and added the cute little Brushed Brass Butterflies (#158136) to finish the card.

The Daffodil Daydream stamp set, Daffodil dies, Forever Flourishing Dies Fine Shimmer Paper Pack and the Soft Succulent Stampin’ Blends are retiring.

Daffodil Daydream stamp set

Hello all crafting friends,

The Daffodil Dream Bundle (#157795) was used on this card and consists of the Daffodil Daydream stamp set (#157786) and the Daffodil Dies (#157794).

The daffodils were stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) on Basic White card (#159228). The flowers were coloured with Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends (#154883) and for the leaves I used Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends (#154885). The co-ordinating die from the Daffodil Dies was used to cut the stamped image.  

I dry embossed the Basic White card front with the Gingham Embossing Folder (#157627). The designer paper from the Sale-a-bration Daffodil Afternoon 12”x12” Designer Series Paper (#158127) was attached to the card front.

The Basic Black card (#121688), Crushed Curry card (#131288) and the Basic White card were all cut with Stitched Rectangles Dies (#151820). I also dry embossed the small white rectangular card with the Gingham embossing folder. I taped the rectangles together and attached them to the card. The daffodils were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). 

The gold trim is from the Simply Elegant Trim (#155766). The sentiment is in the Expressions Of Friendship stamp set (#158460) and stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento ink, cut with another Stitched Rectangles die and attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). The embellishments are the  Clear Polished Dots (#158134) which were coloured with the Dark Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends.

TIP: To colour the embellishments using Stampin’ Blends, I find it easier to colour with the brush end of the blends. Colour the embellishments while they are still attached to the plastic they are adhered to. Allow them to dry, which doesn’t take long then transfer them to the card. Any clear or white embellishments can be coloured this way.

Daffodil Daydream Bundle

Hi friends,

The Slim Card Dies (#157965) has 4 dies which can be used for a slim line card and I have used one for the background of this card.

Before cutting the Basic White card (#159228) with the die, I adhered the Adhesive Sheet (#152334) to the back. This makes it so much easier to attach it to the base card. This was then attached to the Basic White base card which was cut at 22cm x 18cm and scored in half at 9cm. This fits perfectly into the Slimline Envelopes (#157981).

The daffodils from the Daffodil Daydream stamp set (#157786) were stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708). These were cut with the Daffodil Dies (#157794). The Stampin’ Blends to colour the images are Daffodil Delight (#154883) and Granny Apple Green (#154885).

“Happy Birthday” is from the Biggest Wish stamp set (#155952). “Birthday” was stamped with Daffodil Delight ink (#147094) and “Happy” with Granny Apple Green ink (#147095). I used a Hippo & Friends Die (#153585) to cut the sentiment. Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) were used to attach the sentiment and the daffodils with the 3 flowers to the card. I used the Clear Wink Of Stella Brush (#141897) for some glitter on the flowers and the embellishment are from the Playing With Patterns Resin Dots (#152467).

Daffodil Dies

Hello my friends,

These daffodils were made using the Daffodil Dies (#157794). There are 24 dies in this set which may seem a bit daunting when you first see them but there are 2 of each of some of the dies and then there are 2 layers for many of the dies. There are also stems, leaves and small butterflies, so a great variety of dies.

The dies shown have the base of the petals/flowers above the co-ordinating detailed dies, so you can see which ones match. 

I cut the solid pieces of the flowers & petals from Daffodil Delight card (#121680) and the top layer from Crushed Curry card (#131288) which had been backed with Adhesive Sheets (#152334) before cutting with the dies. I assembled the flowers with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

I cut the leaves and stems using Mossy Meadow card (#133683) also using the Daffodil Dies. These also had Adhesive Sheets adhered to the back.

I stamped the “splatters” from the Daffodil Daydream stamp set (#157786) onto a piece of the Abstract Beauty Specialty Designer Series Paper (#158039) using Mint Macaron ink (#147106). I matted the DSP with Crushed Curry card and attached it to the Basic White base card (#159228).

“Hugs” was cut with the Layering Hugs Dies (#144860) from Crushed Curry card. The tag was cut with one of the Tailor Made Tags Dies (#155563) from Daffodil Delight card. I threaded the Gold Simply Elegant Trim (#155766) through the tag then this was attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. 

I used the Clear Wink Of Stella Glitter Brush (#141897) on the detailed die cuts of the flowers. The cute little Brushed Brass Butterflies (#158136) were added to the card.

TIP: Adhesive sheets adhered to the back of the card before cutting with detailed dies makes it so easy to attach the detailed cutouts to the card.

Daffodil Daydream Bundle

Hi everyone,

The Daffodil Daydream Bundle (#157795) consists of the Daffodil Daydream stamp set (#157786) and the Daffodil Dies (#157794).

I stamped the 2 daffodil images with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) onto Basic White card (#159228). The flowers were coloured with Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends (#154883) and the leaves with Old Olive Stampin’ Blends (#154892). I added glimmer to the flowers with the Clear Wink Of Stella Glitter Brush (#141897). These were cut with the co-ordinating dies. 

The Designer Series Paper is Abstract Beauty Specialty (#158039) and matted with the Basic Black card (#121688). This was attached to the Basic White base card. 

“Congratulations” is from the Peaceful Moments stamp set (#151595). I stamped this with VersaMark (#102283) and used the Black Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155554) and set it with Heat Tool (#129056). I used a die from the Potted Succulents (#154330) to cut the sentiment. 

The sentiment, the daffodils on the left and the butterfly were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The butterfly was cut with a die from the Daffodil Dies using the (retired) Black Glitter Paper. The Classic Matt Dots (#158146) were attached to the card.
