My Stamp Vault: New 2023-24 Catalog Blog Hop

Hello stampers,

Today I'm participating in a New Catalog Blog Hop with demonstrators around the world. I'm so excited with all the new colors, papers & stamp sets. I'm sharing my favorite stamp set so far from the new catalog which is Cheerful Daisies & a fun fold to boot.

I got this fun fold idea from Jackie Bolhuis & you can watch her video HERE, so you can make your own card. For this card I used Garden Green, Basic White & Thick Basic White Cardstocks with the Fresh As A Daisy DSP. For the focal point, I used the Thick Basic White because I thought it would stand up a bit better being slid on/off the card with the band. I stamped the stem & leaves from the Cheerful Daisies Stamp Set directly on the cardstock using the Garden Green Ink Pad. For the flower, I ran one of the floral dies both the full & the detailed die from the Cheerful Daisies Dies using Basic White Cardstock & stamping the center using the Crushed Curry Ink Pad, then with the Stampin' Blends Deep Combo Pack I colored just around the center of the flower like it is on the paper. I then adhered the full & the detailed die cut together using Multipurpose Glue & then popping it up using Mini Stampin' Dimensionals, this was then adhered to the belly band. The sentiment I chose came from the Lasting Joy Stamp Set & was stamped directly on the thick cardstock using the Garden Green Ink Pad.

For the inside of the card, I used Basic White Cardstock & stamped the flower bunch using the Crushed Curry Ink Pad & a sentiment from the set using Garden Green Cardstock.
