Greetings!
A few weeks ago I was demonstrating die cutting and made a large daisy from the Cheerful Daisies dies. I have had the flower sitting out as a reminder that I wanted to make a card with it. I recently learned a new fun fold and decided it was the perfect fold to highlight the lovely die cut daisy.
Isn't it cute! With a single daisy large enough to hold it's own as the focal point on a fun-fold that gives you a chance to showcase a couple beautiful prints from your favorite Designer Series Paper, this card is sure to delight the recipient.
These two prints from the Delightfully Eclectic Designer Series Paper (DSP) are the perfect pair for this card. I could have chosen a third print to be the background directly behind the daisy, however I opted to use the Timeworn Type 3D embossing folder for a subtle tone on tone texture. This diagonal tri-fold fun fold still allows room for a message on the inside of the middle section and the Very Best Occasions stamp set has just the right message to go with the "Happy Birthday" from the Go To Greetings stamp set.
