Cheerful Daisies Brightest Birthday Card

Greetings!

Today's card went from thought to completed project very quickly!  I saw a list of card ideas, one of which was a springtime theme, and I was off and running...well, creating. 😁

The Fresh As a Daisy Designer Series Papers (DSP) is filled with beautiful prints of daisies in a wide array of colors.  Simply looking at the colorful prints had my creative juices flowing.  Yellow was the color that popped out at me, so I pulled a few shades of yellow from my cardstock supply, pulled the same color ink pads, and it was time to start stamping.  The Cheerful Daisies bundle, which is designed to coordinate with the Fresh As a Daisy DSP, made putting this card together a snap!


All the beautiful yellows against a background of greens make this such a cheerful, springy card!  There are more lovely combinations included in this pack of papers, giving you a nice variety of options to play with. The papers are going away with the end of the 2023-2024 annual catalog (while supplies last) so you'll want to get them before they're gone. These papers make it so easy to bring together gorgeous color combinations as well as provide a wonderful allover print layer or background to your cards.   

Lucky for us, the Cheerful Daisies stamp set and dies are continuing for another year, but the 10% bundle discount ends with the current catalog.  It's the perk of purchasing the coordinating products during the first release to get the added bonus of the bundle discount.  After the initial release, the products continue forward as separate items.
