Card Making with the new “Daisy,Daisy” Paper Collection from Close To My Heart


On Thursday I showed you a few images of the gorgeous scrapbooking workshop “Daisy,Daisy” from Close To My Heart and today we have a close look at the cards you can make with this set too. Yes, this workshop is including both. Love that you can use some of these little leftover piece we always have after finishing a layout and convert them into a beautiful card. 

Check out all the items that will come in the bundle kit. Everything is included beside your adhesive and a paper trimmer LOL. The stamp set and thin cuts are so pretty and you can get them individually if you like. I think I need both because you can never have to many flower stamps and this thin cut is just a must have.

Find more about this set and all the combos on my website, https://claudiahenderson.closetomyheart.com/ctmh/promotions/2302-daisy-daisy.aspx

2023 February Card Projects - Process Video 3

 

This card was inspired but the new Daisy, Daisy workshop from Close To My Heart. I will put the link down below for the collection. Currently the papers and the stamps are available, the workshops and thin cuts will be in stock towards the end of February!

By the way, with Close To My Heart’s Workshops you can download your copy direct from my website. Yes, free templates for you to use even if you use paper you have in your stash ;-)

But back to the card design. I am in love with this design. Super easy, perfect for all these paper scraps you can’t get rid off and just pretty! I did check the inventory and sadly the flower set used was called “A Million Little Things” (D1925) and is no longer available but I am 100% sure you will find something else to substitute in your collection. 

Beside the Close to My Heart cardstock I used the “Backyard Bliss” paper collection, which is such a beautiful paper and you still can get it including the workshop kits….yeahhhh

The slim line stamps set with all the wonderful phrases is still available. The larger images will fit on our slim cards and the one I used is just perfect for our regular card bases. The set is called “Slimline Quotes & Sentiments” and the matching Slim Card Bases and envelopes can be found here:
