The Crafty Collaborations Team is comprised of Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators from around the world. Each month we participate in several collaborative projects, including Blog Hops, like this one, to inspire all of us in our passion for crafting. Our goal is to create, share, and inspire every crafter to keep our creative energy flowing.
The Crafty Challenge for May 2023 was to create a card based on the following sketch.

Remember, a sketch can be followed closely or interpreted loosely. You see where I’m going with this, I’m sure. I took the road of “loose interpretation.” Although the sketch looks like a slimline card, I decided to apply it to an A2 card. I combined the Countrysides Inn patterned paper with the Cheerful Daisies as these are two of my favorites in the new Annual Catalog. I’m always drawn to the blues so this card also uses Misty Moonlight.

The inside of the card is also decorated because these daisies are just so beautiful!

Instructions for the Countryside Inn Meets Cheerful daisies Card
- Cut a Boho Blue card base 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ and score at 4 1/4″.
- Use the scalloped edge die from the Zany Zoo bundle to cut the right hand edge of a piece of Misty Moonlight card stock cut 3 1/8″ x 5 1/2″.
- Adhere a 2 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ piece of Countryside Inn patterned paper to the Misty Moonlight with a slightly bigger border on the right.
- Adhere these two pieces to the card front with a slightly bigger border on the right.
- Die cut the three attached daisies from Misty Moonlight card stock. Cut the flowers and leaves apart.
- Cut the framelit for the large daisy and the detail die for the large daisy from Basic White.
- Adhere the 3 layers together. Pop up on the card front with dimensionals.
- Use dimensionals to pop up the leaves while tucking them under the daisy.
- Stamp “A note of thanks” from the Sending Smiles stamp set on a scrap of Basic White, lining it up with the left edge of the banner.
- Cut with the smaller narrow banner die. Trim off the left side near the first word.
- Add three Boho Blue 2023-2025 In Color dots.
- Layer the smallest daisy with Basic White and Misty Moonlight die cuts. Cut a Misty Moonlight stem.
- Adhere to a 4″ x 5 1/4″ Basic White mat. Adhere the mat to the inside.
