Happy Thursday and Happy Spring! Spring brings flowers and that’s what I decided to use for my focal image in this week’s sketch challenge at Create with Connie & Mary. Below is a photo of this week’s sketch:
I used the Paper Doily Die in two different ways here on my card:
First I cut out a whole doily and then trimmed the outside edges to make it smaller in size. The size is perfect to layer a 2 1/2″ Circle Punch layer of Calyso Coral Cardstock. I also layered a scallop circle under the doily cut from the Scallop Circle #2 Die. I sponged the edges of all my layers with Calypso Coral Ink:
I stamped my flower image directly on the Everyday Enchantment DSP with Calypso Coral Ink and hand-cut. I then cut a 2nd doily and used only part of it as a layer to outline my strip of DSP that sits vertically.

Pretty card, Debbie! Love the different ways you used the doily! And the flower is so pretty cut from the dsp! Great idea!!
Love the way you stamped the flower on the DSP…that's my favorite way to color things in! Very pretty card! Great working with you on Create!
Love how you showed different ways to incorporate the doily onto the card! Beautiful!
Very pretty – light and open!
Lovely use of the doily die and the paper pieced flower is so pretty!
I never think about stamping my image on DSP and cutting it out. I love this look and your flower is fabulous. This is such a beautiful card!
Pretty…love the doily peeking out along the edge!
