Create With Connie & Mary Saturday Blog Hop

Mellow Yellow Theme!

Welcome to our Saturday Blog Hop at Create With Connie & Mary! This week for our month-long celebration of songs with colors in the title, we are using Mellow Yellow from Donovan. I used two yellows on my card today:

Wild Wheat and Crushed Curry. Don’t the two yellows look fabulous together? I also used one of the panels from the preprinted sheets in the Fresh As A Daisy Designer Paper. Look how pretty this panel is with the addition of diecuts:

Here’s the how-to:

Stampin’ Up! Products Used:

• Stamps: Cheerful Daisies
• Inks: Wild Wheat
• Designer Paper: Fresh As A Daisy

Card Recipe:

• Card Base: Crushed Curry Cardstock 11″ x 4-1/4″. Score and fold at 5-1/2″.
• Layer 2: Wild Wheat Cardstock 5-1/4″ x 4″. Glue to card base.
• Layer 3: Use the designer paper sheet from Fresh As A Daisy that has all of the preprinted panels on it and cut the same one I used to measure 5″ x 3-3/4″. Glue to card front.
• Daisies: Use the large daisy die to cut the three daisies with Basic White Cardstock. Cut the flowers apart with Paper Snips. Glue the large one to the right about 1-1/2″ from the bottom and flat. Set the other two aside.
• Layer 4: Crushed Curry Cardstock 3-3/4″ x 1/2″. Glue over the bottom of the diecut daisy on the card front.
• Sentiment: Stamp the sentiment on Basic White Cardstock with Wild Wheat Ink. Cut with the label die. Glue to the left of on the Crushed Curry Cardstock strip with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
• Daisies: Glue the two remaining daisies with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals tucked under the sentiment at the top and one to the right of the sentiment.
• Branch: Cut the branch with the die and Early Espresso Cardstock. Tuck under the daisy at the top of the sentiment and glue flat.
• Leaves: Use the large daisy die to cut the two leaves with Crushed Curry Cardstock. Tuck and glue under the daisies.
