Cricut Daisy - One Hour Card Class 067 - OHCC067


Stamps: Bunch of Blossoms, Whimsical Words (SAB 2010) or One Big Meaning (2017/2018).

Cardstock: Basic Grey, White, Melon Mambo, Blushing Bride.

Ink: Basic Grey, Melon Mambo.

Tools: bone folder, purchased envelope, sponge, dimensionals, Tombow adhesive, snail adhesive, glue dots, Softly Falling EF, Pinewood Planks EF, clear Faceted Gems, mini sequins trim, silver sequins

Punches: Banner, large oval.

Did a little bit of cheating here!  Found a daisy online and let my Cricut Explore Air cut it out!  How simple is that!  I also totally cheated and used Claire Daly’s card layout!

Stamp the sentiment from the Bunch of Blossoms stamp set on to white cardstock with Basic Grey ink.  Punch with the large oval punch.  Add dimensionals. 


Spong the petals with Blushing Bride ink and the centers with Melon Mambo ink.  Add a dimensional.  Add three silver sequins to the card front with glue dots.  Add a clear Faceted Gem to the daisy center.


Stamp a phrase from the Whimsical Words or One Big Meaning stamp set in Melon Mambo ink and adhere to the inside of the card.


Open the flap of a purchased envelope and run through the Pinewood Planks EF.  Lightly sponge with Basic Grey ink.

Daisy from the Succulent Die - One Hour Card Class 068 - OHCC068


Stamps: Bunch of Blossoms, Cheesecloth, Whimsical Words (SAB 2010) or One Big Meaning (2017/2018).

Cardstock: Early Espresso, White, Old Olive, Sahara Sand.

Ink: Daffodil Delight, Early Espresso, Crumb Cake.

Tools: bone folder, purchased envelope, sponge, dimensionals, Tombow adhesive, snail adhesive, glue dots, copper sequins, fine tip glue, Flourish Thinlits dies, Succulent Framelits dies,

Punches: Scallop Trim Border or Decorative Ribbon Border (2017/2018).

This was a fun card to make.  As you can see, we roughed up the edges of the panel. 

We also roughed up the edges of the phrase panel.  A strip of border using the Scallop Trim Border punch helped bring this card together. 

We die cut four of the smallest Succulent flowers from the Succulent Framelits dies.  Sponged centers of each flower with Daffodil Delight ink.  Curled the petals to give some dimension.  Offset one on top of the other and adhere with a glue dot.  Add a dimensional. Added three coper sequins to the card.

Punched circles from Early Espresso cardstock and adhered to the flower centers.  Covered dots with glue from the Fine Tip glue.  

Stamped the inside. 

Made a matching envelope.

SU120 Decoupage Technique with Paper Napkins


Decoupage Technique for Paper Napkins

Start with a pretty napkin.  Most decorative party napkins are two-ply.  Separate the layers.  You only need the pretty layer so discard the other.  If you don’t separate the napkin, the Mod Podge will only adhere to the bottom layer (the one with no pretty on it).  Cut a scrap of cardstock ( I’ve even used just plain computer paper) bigger than what your finished card will be.  We will trim it up after it dries.  Paint the scrap with Mod Podge and quickly set the napkin on top of it.  Work fast as Mod Podge dries quickly.  Don’t worry if you have the odd wrinkle here and there – kinda gives it texture.  Let dry.

Once this has dried, you can now paint the top of the napkin with Mod Podge then add a pinch of glitter while it is wet.  It really doesn’t take much more than a pinch, honest!  If you intend to do this, paint from the center of the napkin out toward the edges.  Work slowly as not to tear the napkin.  Let dry. 

Use your napkin as a base for your card.  Just cut it to fit on whatever size card you are making.

Always clean your brush with water immediately after you have finished painting. 

Stamp - Heartfelt Thanks.

Cardstock - Tempting Turquoise, non SU! neon yellow, White.

Ink - Tempting Turquoise.

Accessories - napkin, mod podge, paintbrush, ticket punch, mounts.

I made this card for my cousin Doreen. She had brought all kinds of goodies as well as a package of these napkins to our place after my mom passed away a couple years ago.

SU148 Thankyou

I did not cut away the perferations on my Top Note. Instead, I mounted it to Celery and cut it a little bigger as I wanted it to fit my card a little tighter. It doesn't show on the scan, but I added Crystal Effects and glitter to the flower centers. The square is cut 15/8" to fit under the scallop square.

Stamps - Polka Dot Punches (2009 SAB), Elegant Thankyou.

Paper - Bashful Blue, Delicate Dots Paper (2009 SAB), Certainly Celery.

Ink - Bashful Blue, Certainly Celery.

Accessories - Sponge, mounts, square scallop punch, 1/2" circle punch, 5 petal flower punch, Top Note die, Crystal Effects, Dazzling Diamonds glitter.
