Stampin' Up! Daffodil Daydream Hello Card

Hello Stampers!  

Happy New Year!!  Wow, it is almost the 3rd day of 2022 already!  My how time flies.  I have to ask, are you a resolution kind of person?  Well, I try to be; I always set them and start out with a bang to typically give up by mid-to end of January.  We will see how this year goes.  One of my resolutions was to challenge myself by participating in stamping and card challenges.  Although I didn't actually get it done in time to participate in the challenge, I did use the sketch, so I am calling it a success. 😉  Next time I will try to be done before the deadline! 

I am using the Daffodil Daydream stamp set that is going to be in the January - June 2022 catalog that goes live January 4, 2022 (day after tomorrow!).  I also used Daffodil Afternoon DSP that is FREE in the Sale-A-Bration brochure that goes live the same day.  The sentiment I heat embossed in Black using the Hello from the Biggest Wish stamp set.



  I used sketch 453 from Atlantic Heart Sketch Challenge.  Here it is:



  • Stamp the flowers with Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on small Basic White CS panel.
  • Use Light and Dark (LT/DK) Daffodil Delight and Mossy Meadow Stampin' Blends to color flowers and leaves.
  • Stamp the sentiment in Versamark Ink on smallest strip of Daffodil CS, almost all the way to the right edge.  Sprinkle with Black Embossing powder and heat with heat tool to set.
  • Assmble DSP and sentiment following sketch design on a piece of Basic White CS, then onto the card base with Liquid Glue, as shown.  Adhere the stamped daffodil panel to the Basic Black CS and place on card front to left of sentiment using Dimensionals. 
  • Attach a large Brushed Brass Butterfly to the right of the sentiment, and two small ones scattered around the flowers.

  • Stamp butterflies in the upper right and lower left corners on a Basic White CS panel and color with LT/DK Daffodil Stampin' Blends.  
  • Adhere this panel to a Daffodil CS mat, then to the inside of the card.


Finally, I repeated the butterfly stamp and coloring on the lower left corner of an envelope front and adhered the reverse side of the DSP to the envelope flap.  Must make sure the envelope is as pretty as the card!

I hope you enjoyed my card today!  If you want to recreate this card, the  measurements and supplies I used are below.  If you live in the USA and don't already have a demonstrator, I would love to assist you with your crafting needs.  If you would like a copy of the new catalog, please let me know, and I will be glad to send you one.

Until next time...
Happy Stamping!
