Watercolored Poppies and Daisy cards

I have two projects to share. This first one combines pattern paper and dies.

I began with an A2 size card base cut from smooth white cardstock. I then trimmed down a panel from plaid pattern paper and added a white strip of cardstock to the bottom. 

I then die cut flowers from several flower dies in my stash from colored cardstock. Using liquid glue I adhered them to the plaid panel with foam squares.

I then die cut the new CZ Happy die from yellow cardstock and twice from white cardstock and glued them together for thickness. I positioned it on the white cardstock strip. Before I glued it down I stamped the sentiment that would be above it. I then added some flat clear sequence to finish this card off.

My next project features the new Poppy Bundle embossing folder. I wanted a whimsical watercolor look. I used a piece of watercolor paper and embossed it with the folder.

I used distress inks, mixed them with a bit of water, and painted the poppies and stems. Using a paint brush I splattered the same distress ink all over the embossed panel. I trimmed it down and ink blended the edges. I die cut the word happy from gold painted watercolor paper. I then stamped the word birthday in green ink and die cut it out with one of the new dies from the release. I tied gold twine around the panel and adhered it to the card base.

I hope you enjoyed the projects that I have shared with you today and got some inspiration.
