I have made a birthday card using a couple of the new Simon Says Stamp dies and stencil, and a new CZ Design stamp, all from the new Simon Good Luck Charm release...
I thought these new Dome Arch dies were cool, and I thought using them as the actual card design would be a great way to showcase their shape. I die cut a card from one of the dies, die cutting with the die just slightly above the top edge of the card, so as to leave the card pieces attached after die cutting. I then die cut anothe dome of the same size, and adhered over the card, so the dome was not missing like the card. SEE BELOW. I then blended three shades of yellow ink on some cardstock using the new Layered Confetti stencils. I die cut that yellow dotted piece of cardstock with another of the same dome dies, this time a smaller one than the card size, stamped and embossed a sentiment, and popped it over the card. I added my die cut daisy. I die cut the top and bottom pieces of the flower, slightly bending the topped, lined petals. I blended the center pieces with one of the yellow inks, and adhered all the pieces together and onto the card. I added three die cut flower petals, die cut from greem cardstock, and even though flower petals, they look enough like leaves to get away with it. I added some black floss, and done. Here's a look at all the pieces before I put them together...
Very pretty, Lisa. I love me some daisies! You can never have enough product featuring them. Kind of like snowflakes. Thanks for the inspiration.
