hello...

Happy Wednesday everyone!  Rosemary here with a clean and simple card that I made using the new Open Daisy die set.  This die set works with the Daisy die set as well as the new Dancing Daisies cover plate die.


 I recently got the Open Daisy die set as well as the Dancing Daisy cover plate die and had originally thought I would use the two together, but then I saw the fun sketch over at Fab Friday (thank you to the team for picking my card from a few weeks ago found here as one of their Fab Five!) and decided to just use the Open Daisy dies by themselves.  I pulled out some fun Lawn Fawn patterned paper that I have had for awhile and die cut each daisy from the paper twice.  I then layered each set by offsetting them.  Once each set was dry I adhered all of them together to create a flower that looks a bit more like a chrysanthemum then a daisy.  I lifted up the petals to give it a bit more dimension as you can see it the photo below.   For the other elements in the sketch I die cut another piece of coordinating paper using the wave die that comes in the Anchors Aweigh die set.  I then trimmed it down, flipped it upside down and adhered it to a strip of coordinating paper.  White cardstock was die cut with the largest Stitched Dot rectangle and the strip element was adhered to that.  I then placed the piece in my stamping tool, inked up the sentiment (from Aloha) with Catherine Pooler Black Jack ink and stamped it.  The flower was then adhered and the center added.   The entire piece was then adhered to my card base.  Going to try layering more of the die cut daisies to see just how full I can get it.
