Berry Birthday

Hiya All

              Here's  quick and simple card showcasing the Daisy Delight Stamp Set and Pick a Pattern Washi Tape.  I just love how striking this combination of Whisper White, Berry Burst and Basic Black look together.  

I started off the design of this card with the Berry Burst Daisies, I stamped two and cut using the Daisy Punch adhered together so the petals were offset.  I added a Clear Faceted Gem for the centre of the Daisy.  I then decided I wanted a mostly Whisper White background so I used the Garden Trellis embossing folder to add some texture and then adhered the Pick a Pattern Washi Tape.

I stamped the greeting from Happy Birthday Gorgeous and punched out using the Classic Label Punch and played around with the placement of the flower and sentiment until I was happy with them.  Then I added the Basic Black card layer to give some colour contrast and then adhered to the Berry Burst card base.  A bright and beautiful birthday card to send to a special friend.

A Little Wild

Hi Stampers,
                     The card I'm sharing today is a cute and softly toned card.  I fell in love with the A Little Wild Stamp set images they were just so cute with the front and back of the animals.  You could easily use this card for a child or for a baby card, the colours are soft and muted.  I've added to that effect by sponging around the Coffee Break Designer Series Paper (DSP), Soft Sky & Whisper White layers by sponge daubing the edges with Soft Sky ink, it really softens up the look of the card.

I kept to the circular theme portrayed in the DSP by punching out the focal image with the Starburst Punch and then the sentiment with the 1 1/4" Circle Punch.  I used my colours based from what was in the DSP pack.  I made a very similar card to this for a very good friend recently for the birth of her son, I did use the alternate greeting from the stamp set " A great big welcome for a sweet little someone".
