 Circle Sayings and
Floral Delight DSP 


I really like how this card turned out.  So easy, really!!!
I can imagine this card sketch in almost any DSP.
So much fun, so little time.

Recipe:
  • The 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 base of Daffodil Delight cardstock is scored at 4 1/4.  
  • The Pool Party layer is 5 1/4 x 4.
  • The three pieces of 5 x 1 1/8 of Floral Delight DSP are added to the Pool Party piece with liquid glue.  I added three 1" squares of Floral Delight DSP over the long pieces.  I then wrapped some Baker's Twine around the Pool Party & DSP layers.  Then glued all to the base.
  • I stamped the words, from Circle Sayings, on Basic White with Old Olive ink and punched this out with a 1 1/4" circle punch.  The Old Olive circle base is punched out with a 1 3/8" circle punch.  This combination is added to the card front with dimensionals.
  • I added four Blooming Pearl Gems.
  • All done and remember to decorate your envelope.

 You Are Remarkable for my May 2025
Creative Therapy Classes

I wanted to showcase my newest stamp set, You Are Remarkable, simply because it is such a pretty set.
I am offering this for my May 2025 classes.  So much fun, so little time.

Recipe:
  • The 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 base of Granny Apple Green cardstock is scored at 4 1/4.  
  • The Berry Burst layer is 5 1/4 x 4.
  • The Very Vanilla layer is 5 1/8 x 3 3/4 and is embossed with the Mini Corrugated folder.
  • I adhered the Very Vanilla and Berry Burst layers together, then added some Berry Burst ribbon.
  • The flower is stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink.  The leaves are stamped with Granny Apple Green ink, and the flower with Berry Burst ink, and the center of the flower with Crumb Cake ink.  This piece is cut out with the third from the largest of the Textured Notes Dies.  The Happy Birthday words, from Circle Sayings, is stamped with black ink.  I added this piece to the card front with dimensionals.
  • I made a bow with the same ribbon and added it to the card front with Glue Dots.
