Daisy Daydream Alternate Cards - Paper Pumpkin March 2025 Kit Part 2

I'm back today to share some more of my Daisy Daydream Alternative cards that I made last week (see original post here).  

Card No 9: 

This card design started out by cutting down one of the beautifully designed white envelopes, to 5 1/4" x 3 3/4".  I left the envelope flap on the panel and the crease line became nearly invisible after embossing it with the Hexagon embossing folder (R).  Before I embossed this panel, I stamped the Happy Birthday sentiment from Perennial Birthday (r) in Mossy Meadow ink.  This matte layer was mounted onto a 4" x 5 1/4" piece of Crushed Curry which in turn was adhered to the card basic white card base. I adhered two daisies and the bee to the flap portion of the envelope piece and added a few gold gems to finish it off.

  Card No 10: 

Card No. 10

Personally this was one of my favourite cards that I made from this kit.  I used the three of the Everyday Arches (#164623) dies to cut arches from Whisper White, Always Artichoke (r), and Crushed Curry card stocks.  Before layering these onto the base I stamped some delicate leaves from the Textured Notes stamp set randomly across the card front.  The sentiment "Thank you for always being there for me" is also from the Textured Notes stamp set.  To decorate this card I added some gold self-adhesive backed sequins, two daisies, some honeycomb and a bee to the white panel.  

Card No. 11: 

This card is made from another one of the envelopes from this kit.  I liked the contrast between the soft grays, the vivid yellow flower centers and comb and the crisp white background of this card.  I started with a Smokey Slate card base and die cut the "thanks" sentiment in the same cardstock.  The Crushed Curry matte was cut out with a 3 7/8" x 5 1/8" decal rectangle die.  The sentiment is from a previous Paper Pumpkin die cut kit.  I cut and layered three of the word images before adhering it to the card front.  It's very bold but it works. One daisy image was popped up in the daisy cluster on the bottom half of the card and the second one was just adhered about the sentiment. 

Card No. 12:

This card began with a standard white card base and then I added a 4 1/8" x 5 3/8" matte of Lost Lagoon cardstock.  The next layer was a 5 1/4" x 4" layer of white followed by the final layer cut down from one of the blue envelopes.  It measured 5" x 3 7/8" and I was careful to cut it so the single daisy stem was placed properly.  I stamped the large honeycomb image in Lost Lagoon ink in three corners of this matte and added one large daisy image.  Once again I stamped the Perennial Birthday sentiment in Lost Lagoon in the center of the card.  The final touch was to add some brass bees both large and minis.  

For the inside I cut a 4" x 5 1/4" matte from the blue card stock in the kit.  I cut a Whisper White layer using the 3 1/2: x 4 1/4" decal rectangle die.  This piece was decorated with a large daisy a sentiment and more honeycomb.  

Card 13:

For card number 13 I used the flap portion of an envelope adhered to a piece of 4" x 5 1/4" Always Artichoke cardstock that I embossed with the Hexagon Embossing folder.  The cardbase is a standard 8 1/2" x 5 12" that's been topped with a Crushed Curry matte measuring 5 3/8" x 4 1/8".  The brass bee on the sentiment is from the original Brass Bee accessories that were available several years ago through Stampin' Up!  I must say I pre-fer this size to the newer mini ones.  At least you can tell it's a bee.  The Happy Birthday sentiment is from the Perennial Birthday stamp set (R) 

I kept the inside pretty simple for this card using an old sentiment stamp that I like and some strips of cardstock left over from some of the cuts.  

Card 14:

Well that's it for this Paper Pumpkin kit series on alternatives.  I've made twenty-two cards so far from the kit and can probably stretch that out to 30, however for the time being I'm moving on.  

I'd love to hear from you about these cards and which are your favourites.  If you have any questions regarding the Paper Pumpkin kits and subscription just send me a note and I'd be happy to go over it with you.  

HAPPY STAMPING!
