Stampin’ Up! Delightful Daisy and a Charming Cafe

Good morning!  How’s it going today?  Do you have a good weekend planned? Hope so!

I did a quick and easy card today – very simple design, using an old favorite (well, not so very old, maybe!) – the Daisy Delight stamp set, bundled Daisy Punch and Delightful Daisy DSP – combined with a pretty sentiment from the Occasions stamp set called Charming Cafe.  Take a look-see:

I used the color scheme from this week’s Color Throwdown.  I love the Black/White/Any Color combination, don’t you?

I started by adhering a small panel of the Delightful Daisy DSP to the top of a Whisper White panel and matting the whole thing on Basic Black.  I wrapped a length of Basic Black 3/8″ Shimmer Ribbon around the card front, covering the seam, and securing it in the back with Fast Fuse.

On a second piece of Whisper White, I sponged two circles in Peekaboo Peach – then I cut out two flowers with the Daisy Punch.

I lightly curled the petals with my Bone Folder and, in the center of one flower, stamped the flower middle image from the Daisy Delight stamp set in stamped-off-once Calypso Coral.  Then I adhered the two flowers together with Liquid Glue.  

I used my Stampapotamus to position and stamp the sentiment from Charming Cafe in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink.  I plan to make a few of these – with different colors of DSP! – so I left the stamp in place.  

I adhered the daisy to the card front with a Glue Dot and added a Gold Faceted Gem.  Then I finished up with a single Rhinestone Basic Jewel!  And that was it – easy peasy!

On the inside, I added another strip of the Delightful Daisy DSP to the bottom of a Whisper White panel with Liquid Glue.  I Fast Fuse’d the panel to a Basic Black mat, wrapped another length of Basic Black 3/8″ Shimmer Ribbon around the seam and secured it in the back with Fast Fuse.

I Fast Fuse’d the inner liner into my Thick Whisper White card base, popped the card front on with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the card was done!

On the front of my Whisper White Medium Envelope, I stamped the daisy image from Daisy Delight twice in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink.  Then I added a stamped-off-once Calypso Coral middle and sponged lightly in a circle with Peekaboo Peach…

…and I added some more of the Delightful Daisy DSP to the envelope flap.

Et Voila!  A clean and simple design for you to copy using any of your DSP that you like!  You can make lots of thank you cards with your Stampapotamus helping to get perfect alignment every time.  I love the pretty font on this sentiment from Charming Cafe!  And, of course, incorporating the Daisy Delight and Daisy Punch is always a good idea.  Hope you like!

Finn Fan Fix

If you have an Aussie in your life – you become very used to looking for ways to entertain them.  It’s a 25 hour a day job.  

Fortunately, my Aussie-boy likes to sleep for 10-11 hours of those 25.

But – the rest of the time, he’d like to have something to do!

And we’re not talking sedate walks, either.

I mean…I need a few sheep or goats or some ducks.

Barring those (ain’t gonna happen!) – we look for anything that might occupy that brain of his.

Enter…the grooming stool!

I spied it this morning while I was doing the barn chores…and pulled it out.

He was so good!  I just pointed to the stool and he put his front feet up!

Then I pointed and asked him to get all the way up!

And – he did!  Look how happy he is with himself!

And then, I told him to sit (from where I was taking the picture) – thinking surely he’d jump off.

But…

There.  I did it!  I entertained him!

For 15 seconds…. 😉
