Fresh As A Daisy DSP card for the Technique Tuesday Blog Hop

Posted on May 9, 2023May 2, 2023 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Technique Tuesday Blog Hop where we are sharing projects made using designer series paper (dsp). I love all the pretty dsp we have in the new catalogue and I love ways to use up scrap bits and pieces. I have used the gorgeous Fresh as a Daisy dsp to make my card today.

Colours in today’s project are:

To recreate the fresh as a daisy card, you will need:

Thick Basic White card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Crushed Curry card – 4⅛” by 2⅛”
Fresh as a Daisy dsp – 4” by 2“

Using my Paper Trimmer, I cut the strip of dsp in half at 2” giving two 2” by 2” squares.

Again, using the trimmer, I cut each square in half on the diagonal.

I used Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive to glue the dsp pieces to the layer of Crushed Curry card. The pieces were laid flush to each end but leaving a small gap top, bottom and in the middle so that the Crushed Curry showed through.

A length of Garden Green Ribbon was wrapped around the panel and secured on the back with Sellotape.

The sentiment, from the Artistically Inked stamp set was stamped in Pebbled Path ink and the dsp panel added below on Dimensionals.

Here is a pretty card made using a sweet, Pansy Patch stamp set and the co-ordinating Pansy Dies.

Colours used in this card are:

To recreate the pansy card, you will need;

Lemon Lolly card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛” – Rounded upper left corner
Copper Clay card – 5⅛” by 3⅜” – Rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5” by 3¼” – Rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – Rounded upper left corner
Copper Clay card – 2” by ¼”
Scrap Basic White card

The solid base image of each pansy was stamped in Lemon Lolly ink and I added the more detailed layer in Daffodil Delight ink. They were stamped on scrap Basic White card. I die cut the flowers using the pansy dies.

The leaves were stamped onto scrap Basic White card, the base in 2^nd generation Old Olive ink and the detail in full strength Old Olive ink, they were die cut using the same dies.

Using a Blending Brush, I added a little Cajun Craze ink to the smaller panel of Basic White card. I love the almost blush effect this ink gives to a background.

The flowers were added to the card base on either liquid glue or Dimensionals and the leaves were tucked underneath. The whole panel was added to the Copper Clay layer which was then mounted onto the Lemon Lolly card base.

I added a length of Gold Elegant Trim around the flowers, held in position with a couple of Mini Glue Dots.

The sentiment was stamped in Versamark ink, covered with White Embossing Powder and Heat set. I trimmed it down and added it to the card front and a trio of Pastel Adhesive-Backed Sequins completed the card.

I love these colours together, don’t you?
