Happy Saturday,
A simple stamped card today that I built up using the elements form the Daisy Corner Elements clear stamp set by Creative expressions. The other interesting fact on this card is that I used the ornate Pierced noble die set to make the card blank.
To achieve the base card I folded a sheet of A4 foundation card in half and placed the largest die from the Ornate pierced square noble die over the fold so that the cut line is above the fold. This means that once you run it through your die cutting machine you will cut three sides and have a card blank cut for you. Next I added the filigree section form the die set to one half of the card and but and embossed this.
The stamped section is made by die cutting the smallest of the square dies from the set and simply stamping, using the separate elements in the stamp set, around the edge. the sentiment is form the Lotus Flower elements set which has some larger sentiments in it which can make a focal element all on their own! I coloured the daisies using distress markers in Ripe persimmon, Squeezed Lemonade and old paper.
To finish the card I cut a contrasting layer inn sand foundation card using the largest die again and adhered it behind the filigree, you will have to trim this down a little at the top to make room for the fold.
This would make a great batch card for those who make for charity or to replenish their crafty stash! I have no issues with people making cards they have made using my stamps however I ask that you don't stamp the images or scan them into computers to sell as images to colour.
Ingredients:

Hello John, love this card very classy, and one I can attempt as I have this die. I will just have to use different flowers but the same colours because I love them. Have a great day. Bx
ReplyDeleteHi John,

Stamps and dies are lovely.

Hi John this is a gorgeous card. I love how you have made the card blank. I am now thinking if I can do this with any of my dies. Have a wonderful day. Hugs Jackie
ReplyDeleteMorning John,
ReplyDeleteStunning card, love the dies being used as just the actual card rather that a decorative piece on top, did that make sense? I hope so lol! I am still waiting for my stamps I ordered them from our local craft shop, they keep saying they have not been released yet but they do have your striplet stamps in!!! Never mind, I am sure they will arrive soon.
Have a great day
Love & Hugs

Morning John, I have used this technique to make a birthday card for my cousin on the 9th, in plum and white but with the die cuts in the centre makes a very effective card blank, I need to get your stamps, love what you've done with it.

Good morning John, as I have been away in Portugal I haven't been able to comment on your cards. I did get to keep an eye on them and as usual they are lovely. Todays has given me inspiration as I have just received this die and now I can start using it. Beryl xx

Hi John, striking card again and love the sentiment and of course the daisies!Jane B.
ReplyDeleteWell blow me, I capitulated and ordered your scribble rose set this morning, and here you are, featuring the daisies! Have you used the fern set yet in a pic here? I don't remember one, so I might have to go back and take a look.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card John. Your new stamps sets look wonderful and love all your sayings.
ReplyDeleteHi John,
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card, thank you for inspiring me. Love Brenda
Hi John, I love the idea behind this card, as I am a batch charity crafter, and the second reason I have bought half of your stamps ( I couldn't afford all as I got the SB stamps on your show) I will get them St Ally Pally as I am now saving up. The first reason in case you are wondering is I just love the balance between words and flowers. X Ros
