Hello there,
Stampin Up Delightful Daisy bundle of product is my focus for today .
Blog Hop- Stamp to Share :
For the second time this week, I am hopping, this time with my Global Friends from the Stamp To Share Design Team.
My first project, is a rather elaborate card, made for my beautiful sister who will celebrate a milestone birthday early next week.
Let’s look at some of the products used :
Love the new In Colour Powder Pink and I have paired it with the lovely Wood Textures Designer Paper .
Wood texture is so current right now, and these gorgeous papers offer such an incredibly easy way, to add instant va va voom to your makes.
Another *I cannot stop using it* product, is the gorgeous Happy Birthday Thinlits Die from Stampin U !. I cut the sentiment from some of the gold foil card backed with the awesome adhesive sheets.
To make the flowers, I punched a few layers of daisies and spritzed them with water first. This softened them, and as a result I was able to manipulate them with ease.
They turned out amazing, to em they look like spidery gerberas. And the Gold Faceted Gems were the perfect finishing touch for the centres.
This card had to be extra special, and so I added a bit more interest behind the flowers. Some leaves and a few spindly branches from the Colorful Seasons Bundle.
In the end I was delighted with how pretty this card turned out, and I looking forward to handing it over to the Birthday girl.
Another Stampin Up Delightful Daisy example:
For my second card I went extra simple just because I was a bit crafted out.
I made proper daisies from white card.
My intention was to use the matching stamp set, but I totally forgot. So, I ended up distressing my daisies with a little ink sponging. This not only made them come to life a bit more, they added lots of texture and depth.
As for the background, I actually used a card from the Color Theory Memories and More card pack. Quick and so happy looking, I really loved making them.
And here’s a close up to see the lovely texture a bit of card stretching achieved. Easy peasy daisy squeezed 🙂
Thank you for joining me today. I hope you have fun checking out what the other design team members have created. So head over to the lovely Amy Koenders.

Seriously? Your sister is gonna faint when she sees her Birthday card!! I adore everything on it!! Your second card is also waaaaay cute. Such a great idea to use M&M cards for a background!
Oh Monica … I absolutely LOVE the flowers that you have created on your first card here … Stunning !! xx
WOW, Monica! So lovely. Thank you for sharing!
Two super gorgeous cards. The 'spidery gerberas' are just … WOW! And mixed with the elements from the Seasonal Layers thinlits is just stunning! Love, Love, Love! The second card is super fabulous too! Loving the mix of the daisies on the Colour Theory Memories and More card. Such a fun look. Thanks for sharing! Rochelle xo
Your cards are beautiful!!
Hello, Monica, this is the first time I have been to your blog. I would like to say how adorable this card is. I absolutely love what you have done to the pink flowers. You have changed them from a cute daisy to another flower in the daisy family Gerberas. Which are my favourite flowers after Peony Roses. I love how you have used a Maple Leaf Die as the leaves and the Branch Die too. WOW, and Mind Blowing are words that are buzzing in my head. I hope you don't mind but I have a need to CASe this card, I will be making Gerberas a lot from now on.
Cheers Christine from Dapto, NSW, Australia.
