Spring Daisy Cards

So I finally had some time to create and take Pictures. It seems during the Holidays I was making things and getting them in the mail before I thought Gee take a picture.

I am terribly behind on Birthday cards again so in the last few days I have assembled 5 and a half of these cards.  I need to cut out more daisies for th elast card... I used my "Walk in My Garden" cart and my Cricut to cut the daisy at 3 sizes each 1/4" smaller than the previous. I believe 2.5" 2.25" and 2".

I then embossed with swiss dots the daisies, Polka Dots the card bases, and Victoria the strips of Melon Mambo and then a piece of scrap which I punched the flower centers out of at 3/4".  after embossing the pieces I layered the 3 parts of Daisies and Centers and then pierce with a paper piercing tool.  I then inserted a ki Memories, "Juicy Summer" brad in the Melon color to hold the flower pieces together.  I bent up the flowers petals to give depth. I used a glue dot to adhere to the panel strip after adhereing all the layers together. I finally used the SU:"Tiny Tags" stamp and punch set, I purchased in October. I also stamped Happy Birthday form SU "Well Scripted" on the inside.  So fun making these spring like cards with all the snow outside!

Until Later..."Happy Stamping!"
