Celebrate Sunflowers Archives - Inkspired Treasures

Earlier this week, I showed you a card using the Medium Daisy Punch that I made for the CCM Inspiration Monday Challenge featuring a yummy daisy cake! SEE DAISY CARD HERE. But, what I didn’t show was the card that I made FIRST. I was trying to make a daisy flower with the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set and Sunflower dies. I really liked how it turned out, but it really didn’t resemble the Sunflower Cake that was my inspiration. So…here is the card with directions that I didn’t show earlier! What do you think? I think it passes for a daisy!

Stampin’ Details:

The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Thick Whisper White cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
On top is a 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Basic Black cardstock.
A 3-7/8 x 4-1/2 piece of Whisper White cardstock is embossed with the new Wrapped in Texture Embossing Folder and added towards the top.
Five 1″ Whisper White punched circles were added along the bottom.
The Sunflowers outline and detail dies were cut from Thick Whisper White cardstock and the center from Daffodil Delight cardstock, then adhered together and added to the front.
Celebrate You from Celebrate Sunflowers was stamped with Memento Black Ink and hand-cut closely around it, then added on top.

I really do love this card! Thanks for stopping by!

CELEBRATE SUNFLOWERS

The lacy sunflower die in the Celebrate Sunflowers Bundle just MAKES this set! I love that you can stamp a layer underneath it, like I did here, or you can do two die cuts!

Stampin’ Details:

- The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 new In Color Bumble Bee cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
- The 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Crumb Cake cardstock was stamped randomly with the small sunflower image with Crumb Cake Ink all around the background.
- A 2 x 5-1/4 piece of In Good Taste DSP was added to a 2-1/4 x 5-1/4 piece of Early Espresso cardstock and added to the front.
- The sunflower was stamped with Terracotta Tile Ink on Bumble Bee cardstock, then cut with the outline Sunflower Die.
- The detailed Sunflower was cut with the Die from Daffodil Delight cardstock.
- A 1-1/2 Circle was punch from Early Espresso cardstock and sandwiched between the outline layer and the detail Sunflower layer with Monoadhesive Glue. The sunflower was added to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The center of the Sunflower was cut with the Die from Early Espresso cardstock and added to the center with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Two leaves were stamped with Mossy Meadow Ink on Garden Green and cut with the Sunflower Die. They were tucked under the right side of the Sunflower with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The greeting from Celebrate Sunflowers was stamped with Terracotta Tile Ink on Whisper White, then trimmed and tucked under the center on the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- A Bumble Bee In Color Enamel Dot was added to the center for a little bling!
