What started as a simple card with a simple idea has turned into much more than I anticipated, but it just got better and better with each addition. Here’s a card I made with the Cheerful Daisies Bundle and small strips of the Fresh as a Daisy Designer Series Paper:
My card features a mix of stamps and dies from the Cheerful Daisies Bundle – some are hidden in the arrangement of beauties on the card (two label dies are tucked behind the flowers and stems). Here’s a look at the Cheerful Daisies Bundle, new in Stampin’ Up!’s 2023 Annual Catalog:
Also tucked behind the flowers are three 3/4″ strips of the Wild Wheat watercolored paper from the Fresh as a Daisy Designer Series Paper. After I arranged the strips on the card, I “flicked” a Copper Clay Stampin’ Blend and a Wild Wheat Stampin’ Blend over the panel to add a little more texture to the pieces. Here’s a look at the colors and patterns in the Fresh as a Daisy Designer Series Paper (which, by the way, features all five of the 2023-2025 In Colors):
I stamped the flower outline with Copper Clay ink and then inked up the solid petals stamps with Wild Wheat ink, lightly stamped it off once and then filled in the Copper Clay outline. That gave me the exact amount of color I wanted on the petals of the flowers.
Once I had all the flowers, leaves and other elements positioned on my card, I added three copper sequins from the new Neutrals Adhesive-Backed Sequins. A perfect accent to the warm colors in my card. Here’s a look at the Neutrals Adhesive-Backed Sequins:
The first card I made with the Cheerful Daisies Bundle showcased a sweet, soft bundle of daisies. If you missed that card, you can click on the photo to see my post for that project:
The colors on today’s card are decidedly darker and richer, but they are also very beautiful. If you like this mix of new colors (Wild Wheat, Pecan Pie and Copper Clay) as much as I do, I hope you’ll save this for future reference:
Bundles: Cheerful Daisies Stamps: Cheerful Daisies Papers: Fresh as a Daisy Designer Series Paper, Pecan Pie, Wild Wheat, Copper Clay, Thick Basic White Inks: Copper Clay, Wild Wheat, Stampin’ Blends (Copper Clay, Wild Wheat) Accessories: Cheerful Daisies Dies, Neutrals Adhesive-Backed Sequins, Stylish Shapes Dies, Stampin’ Dimensionals

The neutrals are so rich together. Beautiful card!
I love the pretty daisies in the stamped-off Wild Wheat with Copper Clay outlines. Enjoy your day, my friend.
Very elegant! Not my favorite
Colors but you made them look gorgeous!
So rich and beautiful!
One word…exquisite!!
Both cards are so lovely and so different!
Love this card! I would never have thought to put those colors together. & they are so pretty. Still learning to love the new in colors.
The color combo you chose for this card would convert almost anyone uninspired by the new in-colors. Great layout, too, Mr. King: you reign!
Love the cards, especially the first one!
Hi Brian
I’m a hobby demo and not really good with figuring out some things. I recently acquired the Blossoms in Bloom set. Not sure how to use the dies can you help me please do you cut the two large dies separately or together? If together how do you set them up in the cutter?
Hi Liz! You won’t be able to nest the dies to run them through your machine. You must cut them one at a time and then layer them. Here’s a Stampin’ Up! video that walks through many of the elements of the bundle: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dgech91FCGE
All the best!
Love both thee cards Brian. The first one is elegant and the second is playful.
