Assembly:
To make the “background layers,” use the Ornate Floral 3D embossing folder to emboss the 5 1/4″ x 2″ piece of Daffodil Delight cardstock. Snail it to the left side of a 5 3/8″ x 4 1/8″ piece of Mint Macaron cardstock, leaving a slight border at the top, bottom and left side. Snail the piece of small daisy Ornate Garden Designer Paper right next to the embossed cardstock on the Mint Macaron layer.
Crop the 3″ x 3″ piece of mint macaron/gold foil Ornate Garden Designer Paper with the seventh largest circle from the Layering Circles dies.
Use Memento ink to stamp the daisy image from the Ornate Style stamp set twice onto the 3″ x3″ piece of Whisper White cardstock.
Color the flower center with the Dark Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends marker. Use the Light Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends marker to add a touch of color to the flower petals. I used the black highlight lines as as guide for this. Color the leaves with Light and Dark Mint Macaron Stampin’ Blends and the stems with the Dark Mint Macaron Stampin’ blends. Crop with the sixth largest circle from the Layering Circles dies then use snail to adhere to the Designer Paper circle. Use dimensionals to attach to the card background layer. See photo for placement.
Tie a piece of the Gold Metallic Edge ribbon around the background layers and make a bow right under the stamped daisy piece. Use snail to attach the layered piece to the card base.
Use Memento ink to stamp the greeting from the Peaceful Moments stamp set onto the 3 1/2″ x 2 1/4″ piece of Whisper White cardstock. Crop with the die from the Ornate Frames die set. Attach to the card front with dimensionals. See photo for placement.
Place a small Gilded Gem on each side of the greeting.
Inside:
Use snail to attach the remaining piece of Mint Macaron cardstock to the inside of the card.
Use Memento ink to stamp the daisy image from the Ornate Style stamp set to the lower left corner of the remaining piece of Whisper White cardstock. Color the daisy as you did for the flowers on the front of the card.
Use the daisy border die from the Ornate Border dies to crop the top of the inside stamped piece. Snail this finished piece to the inside of the card. You may need to use multipurpose liquid glue to adhere the die cut top edge to the Mint Macaron layer. I love the look of this border against the color underneath and the design matches the stamped daisies so well!
Envelope:
Use Memento ink to stamp the daisy image from the Ornate Style stamp set to the lower left corner of the envelope. Use the Dark Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends marker to color the flower center. Add the Light Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends to the highlighted lines on the flower petals. Color the leaf with the Light and Dark Mint Macaron Stampin’ Blends and the stem with the Dark Mint Macaron Stampin’ Blends.
