Stampin' Up! Daisy Delight Thank You Card - Week 4

Hi Stampers

I was invited to do the September weekly Blog post for the Crafty Cupcakes Design Team, along with Michelle of Craft-A-Therapy. You can see her blog 

HERE 

We will be using the Daisy Delight Stamp Set and Punch during September

Welcome to Week 4


Today I am making a "Thank You" card with a Retro look, reminiscent of the old days
All products used are by Stampin' Up! (SU)


I have made this card using the Daisy Delight Stamp set and Night of Navy ink and the Touches of Texture Stamp set. A full product list and cardstock sizes are below.


First I cut the cardstock for the card base, front matt, insert and the piece for the sentiment

Using the Night of Navy ink, I have stamped all over the front of the card using a stamp from the Touches of Texture Stamp set


Then I took the front matt cardstock and carefully tore approx 1/2 cm in a ragged pattern from all around the edge of the card


I stamped this with the Small Daisy flower head all around the edges and with a splotch of navy in the centre - stamp from Touches of Texture
Last I daubed all around the edges with a sponge dauber and Night of Navy. I stamped a few daisy flowers on the insert and added a sentiment from the Daisy Delight stamp set

The Matt is applied to the front of the card using Dimensionals to give it lift


I stamped the "Thank You" sentiment on a 1" strip of card and the tore off the ends to make it match the edges of the matt layer. This was also daubed on the edges. 

I cut 2 pieces of Burlap to slightly wider than the width of the sentiment and glues them to the back of the card with snail glue, and the attached it to the card also with snail
I made a bow with the Bakers Twine and attached it with a glue dot
Lastly I went over the daisys with my Wink of Stella brush - I did not expect it to draw the colour across the daisys! Because the pen is almost empty, I decided to brush on a small amount of glue and add glitter to the daisys. (I keep a small tub of 50% PVA glue and 50% water for this type of thing. Leave to dry

I hope you like this card
