Hey there and welcome to the Stampin' Up! Thailand Achiever's May Blog Hop! Our theme this month is a New Catalog Sneak Peek! The new catalog is right around the corner, and we are so excited to share some sneak peeks of all of the fabulous new ideas and products!
You may just be starting the blog hop here at my blog - Carol Payne Stamps, or may have come from the person above me in the list. If you get off track, the full lineup below will help you move along from blog to blog. At the moment you are visiting Carol Payne.
I decided to play with the wildly popular Daisy Delight Bundle!
First, I stamped a background using one of the daisy centers from the set with Daffodil Delight ink:
I didn't worry about it being too "perfect", I just stamped the center three times before re-inking. I love the varying shades you get when you do this!
I stamped Basic Black daisies over the background, added a stamped and punched daisy, Daffodil Delight 1/4" Double-Stitched Ribbon, and a greeting from Label Me Pretty!
I had to hurry to take these pictures because it was starting to sprinkle outside, but I love using natural light! I stamped and punched three daisies, curled the petals with my fingers, then adhered together with Liquid Glue. I added highlights with my White Stampin' Chalk Marker, and finished the center with a Gold Faceted Gem. I adhered to the card front with a double stack of dimensionals.
Label Me Pretty and the Pretty Label Punch are fast becoming a staple stampin' tool!
Because I wanted everything to be brand new, I reached for Just Add Text for the inside sentiment.

Lovely Carol. Making your own DSP is a sure fire way to keep it all coordinating. (Wish I remembered this more often!) Thanks for sharing. Have a wonderful evening and God Bless, Cynthia <><
