Cup of Daffodils card for the Stamp ‘n Hop Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Stamp ‘n Hop Blog Hop where our theme is Spring/Autumn. I have chosen to make a cup of daffodils Spring themed card using the Daffodil Daydream Stamp set and the Cup of Tea stamp set.

Colours used in this project are:

 

To recreate the cup of daffodils card, you will need:

Granny Apple Green card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛”
Starry Sky card – 5⅓” by 3⅜”
Basic White card – 5¼” by 3½”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾”

 

I stamped the leafy image in the upper left and lower right corner of the Granny Apple Green card front in Granny Apple Green ink and set it aside.

 

The striped cut from the Cup of Tea stamp set was stamped in Starry Sky ink onto the smaller panel of Basic White card. I stamped the image again onto masking paper, trimmed it out and used it to cover the stamped cup. The daffodils were then stamped onto the panel using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. The mask was then removed.

 

I used the following Blends Alcohol Pens to colour in the image – So Saffron, Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie and Granny Apple Green. A Smoky Slate Blends Alcohol Pens was used to ground the cup.

 

The sentiment from the Cottage Wreaths stamp set, was stamped in Granny Apple Green onto the decorated panel. Using a Blending Brush I added  Starry Sky ink around the edges of the panel before gluing it to the Starry Sky layer.

 

The whole piece was then mounted onto the card front on Dimensionals and a trio of Iridescent Rhinestones completed the card.

 

I hope you like it.
