Upsy Daisy Cards

Here are 2 cards we created in My Stamp Club in February.  We did different bow tying techniques.  If you interested in learning more about joining my Stamp Club, email me and I can fill you in with the details.

Here is the Recipe:

Upsy Daisy Stamp Set

Poppy Parade Card Stock 5.5" x 8.5" & scrap piece

Naturals White Card Stock  4" x 3.25" & scrap piece

Poppy Parade Designer Series Paper (DSP) or Blushing Bride 4" x 2.25"

Blushing Bride Ink Pad

Poppy Parade Stampin Marker

Pear Pizzazz Stampin Marker

Blender Pen

Blushing Bride Ribbon 

Glimmer Brads or a brad of your choice

Scallop Oval Punch

1-3/4" x 7/8" Oval Punch

Stampin Dimensionals

Snail Adhesive

1. Stamp the Daisy Stamp in the Blushing Bride.  Take the blender pen and clean off the stems of the daisies.  Tip:  each time you use the blender pen on a stem, clean it on scrap paper before removing another stem.
2. Color the stems with the Pear Pizzazz Stampin Marker.  Color the tips of the daisies with the Poppy Parade marker.
3. Stamp the Daisy about 1/4" off the bottom of the Natural White card stock.
4. Clean the stamp and repeat steps 1 thru 3 on top of the Daisy stamp for the oval, you can pick what daises you want, I picked a bunch with 3 daises, stamp this on your scrap Natural White card stock.
5. Stamp Birthday Celebration or sentiment of your choice in the center of the top daises stamped in step 4.  Using a Stamp-a-ma-jig can help you line the sentiment up just where you want it.
6. Punch out the sentiment with the 1-3/4" x 7/8" Oval Punch.
7. Punch out the scrap Poppy Parade card stock using the scallop oval punch.
8. Adhere the sentiment oval to the Poppy Parade scallop oval using the Snail adhesive.
9. Adhere the full stamped Daisy image to the Poppy Parade DSP, overlap about an 1/4".
10. Wrap Blushing Bride ribbon around card stock where the 2 pieces come together, adhere with snail adhesive to the back.
11. Tie bow and add brad to middle, see tutorial here:  making bows.  This card idea and bow making came from Mary Brown.
12. Adhere to all to Poppy Parade card stock.
13. Add sentiment with of course my favorite Stampin Dimensionals.

 You can run the Daisy image thru the Big Shot Polka Dot embossing folder if you choose, like I did with the thank you card, before I adhered it to the card.  Enjoy making these wonderful cards.

Inky Hugs!
