Blogging Friends Blog Hop: Favorite New Catalog Product

Hello and welcome to the June Blogging Friends Blog Hop.  This month we are sharing one of our favorite products from the 2019-2020 Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog.  The new Catalog just released on June 4th.  One of my favorite products from the new catalog is the Daisy Lane Stamp Set and Daisy Lane Bundle (which comes with the new Medium Daisy Punch).  This set also coordinates with the very Popular Large Daisy Punch and the Daisy Delight Stamp Set; both of which are carry over products from the last catalog.  Okay, I guess it's time to share my card for today.

Tips & Tricks: 

For my card I knew I was going to use the Daisy Delight Stamp Set and matching punches.  So the next step was picking my colors.  I pulled out my pack of the 2019-2021 In Color Designer Series Paper and pulled out Rococo Rose.  I ended up picking the Gingham pattern in the paper pack.  Once I knew what my focal color was going to be It was time to pick the matching colors to go along with it.  
Picking the colors was super easy with the new Color Coach.  This great little tool by Stampin' Up! suggests different color combinations and they all work together very well.  I paired it with Mint Macaron with Petal Pink for a lovely color combination.  
I stamped the daisies (both large and small) in Petal pink and Rococo Rose, and used the Large Daisy Punch and the Medium Daisy Punch to punch them out.  I also used the returning sprig and Leaf punches to punch out a few in Mint Macaron cardstock.  I stamped Smile on a little piece of Whisper White and punched it out using a 1 3/8 punch and punched out a piece of Rococo Rose Cardstock with a 1 1/2 circle punch.  
I added the gingham paper unto a piece of whisper white cardstock, and then attached it to my card base.  I then added a piece of the same paper on the inside.  Before adding everything to the front of the card I cut a piece of the Rococo Rose Scalloped Edge Ribbon and added it to the front of the card.  I then added all my daisies with both regular Stampin' Dimensionals and Minis.  I added the sentiment to finish off my card.

Encouragement Card featuring the Daisy Lane Stamp Set by Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my YouTube Channel and blog; today I am going to share with you my Encouragement card that I created during my Facebook Live on Tuesday 6/4/19 using the New Daisy Lane Cling Stamp Set from the 2019 - 2020 Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog.  This card is the feminine version of the design that I shared with you on Tuesday.  If you missed that video you can view it here.  Here's a look at my card for today.

I took the same design as I did on Tuesday's card but changed the orientation from Landscape to portrait.  I changed a few colors, but basically kept everything else the same.  With these few changes you can see has totally changed the look.
 I adore this color combo!  I would have never thought that Purple Posy, Soft Sea foam, and Grapefruit Grove would create such a beautifully colorful card.  I stamped the fern in Soft Sea foam on a piece of whisper white cardstock that was cut at 3 3/4 x 5.  Then used a Soft Sea foam mat (4 x 5 1/4) to frame the image.  I placed it on a Purple Posy card base that was cut at 4 1/4 x 11 scored at 5 1/2.  The sentiment was placed on a 1 1/8 x 3 3/4 piece of Purple Posy cardstock, and popped up with just a few Stampin' Dimensionals (lol).

So which version do you like the best?  Are you more fond of this version of the card or do you like the masculine version?  I am much more fond of the color combo in today's card, but I love bright cheerful colors.  


Thanks for dropping by today, I hope that you are enjoying all these different card designs featuring the same stamp set this week.  You will find a full list of supplies that I used on today's card in the Stampin' Up!
