Fresh as a Daisy

This was a fun card to make. It has a detachable bookmark with it. To make the bookmark, I cut my base card to 14.9 x 26 cm. I used the Take Your Pick tool attachment with the perforating wheel to rule 5 cm off the side. I folded the perforated panel in and folded the card in half. I used the Fresh as a Daisy designer series paper to decorate the front. The sending word and birthday wishes are from the Sending Smiles bundle.

Do you like the white embossed border on the front? It is Vellum. It makes a great border as it is a much softer look than it would have been had I used white cardstock. With such a bust front to this card, I felt it needed something more subtle in the background and the vellum worked perfectly.

Inside the card, you can see the bookmark, folded inwards. It is decorated with another piece of DSP from the “Fresh As A Daisy” paper pack.

Here is the inside of the card with the bookmark folded out. You will see the perforations that you can tear or cut along to remove the bookmark from the card.

Angled Gatefold Card

I made this cute gatefold using some of the new Incolours and the Fresh as a Daisy designer series paper (DSP).

I didn’t have the coordinating Cheerful Daisy dies so I used a retired Daisy punch instead as the focal piece on my belly band. I used in colour glossy dots embellishments and emulated the look on the centre of my daisy flower, using Wink of Stella and Fine Tip Glue.

Inside the card, I used the flowers from the Hello Ladybug stamp set and Bubble Bath ink. They worked beautifully. The sentiment is from the Layering Leaves stamp set.
