Project Recipe
Cut cardstock and designer paper pieces to the following sizes using a Paper Trimmer:
- card from So Saffron Cardstock at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
- 4" x 5-1/4" from Pool Party Cardstock
- 3-7/8" x 5-1/8" of multi-colored, different flowers and leaves on black background design from Flower & Field Designer Series Paper
- 3-1/4" square from So Saffron Cardstock
- 2" square from Whisper White or Basic White Cardstock
- 2 strips each 2-1/4" x 5-1/2" from Whisper White or Basic White Cardstock
Adhere the Flower & Field Designer Paper rectangle to the Pool Party rectangle.
Pick out the smooth circle die from the Layering Circles Dies that cuts out a circle that is 3" in diameter. Put it on top of the So Saffron square on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine. Run through the machine.
Insert the So Saffron circle cut out into the Ornate Floral 3D Embossing Folder. Place the folder with the cardstock inside on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine and run through the machine.
Adhere the dry embossed So Saffron circle cut out to the center of the designer paper rectangle.
Cut a 6" piece of the Just Jade 3/8" Gingham Ribbon from the Flowers For Every Season Ribbon Combo Pack.
Lay the ribbon across the center of the Designer Paper/Pool Party rectangle with the dry embossed So Saffron circle attached to the center. Flip the rectangle over and fold the ends of the ribbon over. Adhere the ends of the ribbon in place with pieces of Tear & Tape Adhesive.
Remove the protective backing from the Tear & Tape strips and add Stampin' Seal to the back of the Pool Party rectangle. Adhere it to the front of the So Saffron card.
Mount the "smile," "friend," or "the best moments in my life happen with you" sentiment from the Daisy Lane Set on Block B. Ink it up with the Petal Pink Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of the white square.
Pick out the smooth circle die from the Layering Circles Dies that cuts out a circle that is 1-5/8" in diameter. Put it on top of the stamped sentiment square on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine so the sentiment is centered. Run through the machine.
Adhere the sentiment circle cut out to the center of the dry embossed So Saffron circle cut out over the ribbon using adhesive only near the center of the circle cut out.
Mount the small daisy image from the Daisy Lane Set on Block C so one petal is straight down. Ink it up with the Memento Pad. Stamp it three times on each of the horizontal strips of white cardstock. Remember to re-ink the stamp each time. Make sure one petal is pointing straight down for each daisy. Leave a little space between each daisy so you can punch them out.
Unlock the Medium Daisy Punch. Hold it upside down so you see the punching area. Get one daisy image lined up in the punching area. Punch. Repeat until you have punched out all 6 daisies.
Put the daisy punch outs on some Grid Paper to protect your work surface. You need to make sure that you protect your work surface with paper as the Stampin' Blends Markers do bleed through.
Use the Dark Pool Party Stampin' Blends to color about half way up each petal on each daisy punch out.
Use the Dark So Saffron Stampin' Blends to color in centers of three of the daisy punch outs.
Using a Mini Glue Dot, adhere one small daisy punch out to the center of another small daisy punch out to make one full daisy. Repeat with the other daisy punch outs until you have 3 full daisies. Make sure the daisies with the colored centers are on top!
Use Stampin' Seal to adhere two of the full daisies to the front of the card. One should overlap the bottom left side of the sentiment circle cut out. The other should be tucked just behind the sentiment circle cut out on the upper left side.
Use a Stampin' Dimensional to adhere the third full daisy to the card front so it overlaps the ribbon and the left side of the sentiment circle cut out and is centered between the other two full daisies.
Use the mini spatula on the Take Your Pick to carefully peel up three small dots from the sheet of Opal Rounds making sure that you get the adhesive backings as well. Adhere them to the centers of the full daises in the lower right side.
Cut a 3-1/2" piece of the Just Jade 3/8" Gingham Ribbon from the Flowers For Every Season Ribbon Combo Pack.
Slide one end of the ribbon under the ribbon already on the card front on the right side of the dry embossed So Saffron circle cut out. Tie in place with a half knot. Trim the ends.
