We’ve experienced crazy rain storms over the past several days. Even with the high heat on either side of the rain storms, the weather has me longing for Fall. While Stampin’ Up!’s 2023-2025 In Colors were introduced in the Spring, they really come to life in Autumn – if they aren’t already, the warm, dusty tones of these colors are going to be staples in our craft rooms this Fall. I needed to make a thinking of you card (and wanted warm, rich colors), so I reached for the Fresh as a Daisy Designer Series Paper and made this simple card:
The panel of white daisies at the center of this card are pulled from one of ten designs on the first page of the Fresh as a Daisy Designer Series Paper. Here’s a look at the page that showcases these daisies:
By strategically cutting out these panels, you are left with inspiration for 10 different projects. What fun! Here’s a look at the colors and patterns in the Fresh as a Daisy Designer Series Paper (you can click on the image below to flip through all of the designs in my online store):
I trimmed down the panel of flowers a bit to measure 3-1/2″ x 5″. To better align it on the 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″ card front, I added 2″ x 3-1/4″ panels of Pecan Pie cardstock to the top, right corner and bottom, left corner. The panels partially framed my flowers and added another beautiful color to the design.
The sentiment on my card is stamped in Early Espresso with the Wonderful Thoughts stamp set on Thick Basic White cardstock and cropped with the coordinating die. The sentiment is a beautiful script on its own, but it takes new life when cropped with the coordinating die. Here’s a look at the Wonderful Thoughts Bundle:
I added three brown sequins from the Neutrals Adhesive-Backed Sequins to surround my sentiment. What a great accent for gorgeous, warm colors! If you like the mix of Pecan Pie, Wild Wheat and Early Espresso on this card, I hope you’ll save this for future reference:
