It's that time of the month again. No; not that time! It's the Control Freaks Blog hop time!! You're going to love this month's theme. Sneak peaks from the brand new catalog!!!!
You may have just arrived from Julie's blog. I'm sure you loved her projects! Keep clicking on the bottom of each post to see it all!
I had the honor of presenting at Minneapolis On Stage last month and this is one of my favorite cards from my display. It features the Daisy Delight stamp set and punch bundle.
It's so simple but the Black and White unique background really makes that daisy POP! I used 1/4" strips of Black CS (leftovers from a previous project) on a 4" X 5 1/4" piece of Whisper White CS. The daisy is stamped using Black Memento ink onto Flirty Flamingo and punched out, twice. I added a stamped 1/2" circle to the center and finished it with a bunch of rhinestones. The pretty Thank You is also from the Daisy Delight stamp set.

Here's a totally different card with the Daisy punch.
I made this fun card for a recent online swap I participated in. The colors are Soft Sky, Calypso Coral and the new Tranquil Tide. This unique stamp set is new and called Crafting Forever. It has a bunch of wonderful crafty images and greetings.
I stamped the scissors in Tranquil Tide ink and then colored it in with my Clear Wink of Stella and a bit more Tranquil Tide ink from the lid of the ink pad. I love water-coloring with my Wink of Stella; it produces a smooth and sparkly finish.
Behind the punched daisy and greeting is a die-cut medallion from the Eastern Medallions thinlits. They're part of a special Sneak Peak offer in May. They're absolutely awesome! The greeting is stamped on a 1 1/2" White circle.
Measurements:
- Soft Sky main card 4 1/4" X 11", score at 2 3/4" & 5 1/2"
- Soft Sky stamped piece 2 3/4" X 4 1/8"
- Calypso Coral layer 2 7/8" X 4 1/4"
- Tranquil Tide layer 4" X 2 1/2"

I love the use of the black strips on the first card - it really makes the disy POP! (I was trying to figure out which DSP had the B&W, LOL.) And the layered Eastern Medallion and daisy is gorgeous on the second card!
