Rick's Weekly Recap: Featuring the Daisy Lane Stamp Set & Bundle

Hello and welcome to my blog; I am starting a new series on my blog today.  I will be doing a weekly recap of all the projects that I did this week.  This week I featured the new stamp set & bundle Daisy Lane.  This is a wonderful fun set that features some wonderful images of both large and medium daisies and a few other images.  It also has some wonderful sentiments.  I also used some of the new 2019-2021 In Colors this week on a few of my cards.

So this is how this new post will work.  You will see each project and the image will be linked to the coordinating blog post.  So you can click on the image and read more about that card or project.  I will also share the video for that project if there is one.  At the end of the post you will find all the supplies used for all the cards.  If you are viewing this post via email you will not be able to see the video you will need to visit my blog to view them or my YouTube Channel.  Some email servers will not show the embedded videos.  There's always a video on Tuesday, Thursday & Saturday.

Simple Stamping Episode 22: Featuring the Daisy Lane Stamp Set

Hello and welcome to my blog; today I am sharing another simple stamping card and video for you.  I used the Daisy Lane Stamp Set for my images.  Simple Stamping is geared toward the person that has never stamped before or the person just starting out.  And I am super happy to share these types of cards with you.  I remember the feeling I had when I first put ink to paper and the image appeared.  I never thought that a stamp with all those tiny little groves and gouges when inked would create such beautiful images.  So, I am happy and excited to help you learn the art and joy of stamping.  Here's a look at today's simple stamped card.

I did you the Daisy Lane Stamp Set on my card as I mentioned but I also used one of the new 2019 2021 In Colors today.  I used Terracotta Tile as one of my colors, it has a rich warm color that's just a little darker than Calypso Coral.  Terracotta Tile is very close to the Pantone Color of the year this year Living Coral.  I pared Terracotta Tile with Coastal Cabana and Garden Green.
I like sharing the technique I did today with new stampers because you learn that you don't have to have a lot of supplies to create a beautiful card, and you learn how to create your own Designer Series Paper.  Which is a great skill to know.  

Video Tutorial: 

If you are viewing this post by email you will need to click on the image below to view the video. 
After stamping the images as I did in the video.  It was time to put the card together.  I trimmed down the Whisper White stamped image down to 4 x 5 1/4.  I saved the little piece of cardstock that I trimmed off to use for the inside of my card.  I added the Stamped image to a piece of Coastal Cabana cardstock cut at 5 3/8 x 4 1/8.  My card base is a piece of Terracotta Tile cut in half and scored at 5 1/2.  So, it's 4 1/4 x 11 scored at 5 1/2.  
I hope that you are enjoying this Simple Stamping Series and that if you have never stamped before but have been thinking about it.  I hope that these videos and post help you make the decision to give it a try. It will change your life, I know that it sounds strange, but it has changed mine and I know it will you too.  
Happy Stampin'

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.
