I have this beautiful daisies card to share with you today. I do love daisies, they are such bright and cheerful flowers. Do you like daisies? My grandmother always had a yellow daisy bush in her garden and I still love them.

The colours used here are Mango Melody, Crushed Curry and Daffodil Delight. They are from different Stampin’ Up! colour families but they go well together. They make a great sunny and happy card. I’ve embossed the background with the Country Floral embossing folder to give added interest.

I used this stamp set, Daisy Lane, twice last year and never again. I don’t know why, as it is such a nice set. I’ve stamped it in the corresponding ink to the cardstock for a tone on tone effect. The gold faceted gems give the centres that touch of bling.

Product List

I have ultra simple card to share with you today. The inspiration for this card came from the all the Cherry Blossom that has been out in the last few weeks here in Lincoln. It has been everywhere!! I loved seeing it on my weekly trips to the supermarket. It was the highlight of the trip out.

The base colour here is Bermuda Bay, one of my all time favourites. Pool Party is the colour in the Parisian Blooms Designer Series Paper (DSP) and I think it goes perfectly with the Bermuda Bay. This DSP has champagne foiling which is so pretty.

I’ve tried to use up my scraps and retiring products so I can make the best use of them before they go. I don’t want them to just sit in my stash and not to see the light of day again. The Bermuda Bay ribbon is one of these items alongside the DSP.

Perennial Birthday is the stamp set here and it is retiring!! I thought it would but I was hoping it wouldn’t. I love it for this bold Happy Birthday sentiment. If there are any sets retiring that you love and don’t have then get them now before they go forever.
