DAISY DELIGHT/BEST BIRDS - TGIF CHALLENGE #TGIFC107

This is a new Challenge blog to me so I thought I would give it a go.  Their theme is  Sympathy or Get Well - click on the image below to go to their challenge.


 

I don't actually have any stamps with any of those sort of sentiments on them so I turned to Best Birds for the sentiment and the lovely Daisy Delight for the images.

I wanted to show there is more to this set than the large daisy and the punch.

The square images actually came about by accident - I had cut out three square framelits with the Big Shot and was left with a piece of paper with three holes which I thought aha - that could make a great frame so I kept it!  Never waste anything!  I used it as a mask for the square.

I inked the background with Pool Party and Soft Sky.  I used Old Olive for the stems, Fresh Fig for the flowers and the sentiment and Daffodil Delight and More Mustard for the daisies.  The Whisper White was adhered to a piece of Pool Party cardstock.  I was tempted to add Wink of Stella but as this is a more sombre piece I've left it off.

I hope you like my card - all products can be purchased from me via my online shop!  Or why not join my team and benefit from all the perks of being a Stampin' Up! Independent Demonstrator.

THE NON HOP BLOG HOP!

I should have been part of the Pootlers blog hop today but due to some scheduling issues and my blog being half an hour later than it should have been I've sadly been removed from the Hop.

Here's my card anyway.

I have chosen three new sets to show you - Painter's Palette, Thankful Thoughts, and Playful Backgrounds.  I have also used Botanical Builder Framelits for the flower.

I have also used some of our new In-Colours here.  The card base is Very Vanilla.  I have added a strip of Sweet Sugarplum which has been inked in Versamark with one of the Playful Background stamps.  The Versamark gives you that lovely tone on tone effect.

The picture frame is from Painter's Palette.  The background stamp of Dapper Denim was stamped off with the inside of the easel frame from Painter's Palette.  This gives you an extra square background stamp.

Using the Botanical Builder Framelits and the Big Shot , the flower has been cut out in Dapper Denim and the leaves in Emerald Envy.  A touch of our baker's twine to hang the picture from the little pin, also stamped in Dapper Denim.


The sentiment comes from a great set Thankful Thoughts and has been inked in Dapper Denim.
