Ribbon Candy and Badges

Badges for the Design Team, Badges for the winners of challenges, Badges for the DT coordinator, Badges for the Assts to the coordinator, Badges, Badges, Badges

 

Hello again from all the girls :)

We have had an idea that we are hoping everyone will get involved in.

We like to keep things fresh and now it's time for a change, we need new badges!

Do you think you can help us?

Here's what you would need to do.

Design a badge that you think would fit in with the Daisy Doodles theme.

It can be drawn, made up as a card, made digitally, however is easiest for you.

It would need to be light and fresh looking (no Dark colors) and of course have a daisy in there somewhere lol.

Other than that, you have free license to see what you can come up with.

We would just need a pic of the final result (Jules will make up all badges needed using the winners idea as a template to work from)

The winner will be picked from all entries by the whole team.

The winner will receive a $10 gift certificate to the store AND 2 pairs of Fiskars hand punches,

these have a retail value of £16/$25!!!!

All entries will receive a stamp of choice from the $1 section in store.

Please send all entries to

Daisydoodlescc@gmail.com with Badge in the subject line and your choice of $1 stamp.

Thank you for reading this AD!
I moved my ribbon candy to here.

Same paper

If you think this paper looks familiar...you are right! I used the same ones here that I used for this card. I love it when the scraps from one card just move into the plans for the next one. AND they are both being posted the same day! I like to stretch the cards out over different days, but they are both due by tonight!!! No stretching here today! This card was designed for Delightful Inspirations, Double Delight and Sketch's by Carly. All three challenges tie into one another. Carly is the niece, ten eleven years old, of one of the creators of Double Delight. Double Delight requires that you use Delightful Inspirations, D2D images for their challenges.

As I was looking for a sentiment to fit the center of the wreathe, I saw this wee squirrel, and every time I see an acorn I think of squirrels...so here he is with his green shirt, eying the acorns on the wreathe.

Thanks for coming by!

WMS sketch challenge #13

This was easy! Not that any of them are difficult. Just that this one looked so easy. Slept on it and came up with this idea.

The only difficult thing on this card was tying the crochet trim bow, and trust me...it wasn't that hard.

The sketchers at WMSC are really talented. They come up with some very interesting ones.

True Love and Sympathy

A friend that I haven't seen in a very long time, like 11 years lost her Mom last week. Ruth died on the 22nd anniversary of her darling husband's death. Now that is true love..to wait for just the right day to go to the Lord!
Here's a shot of the layering....

Since I was handing it to Belinda, it didn't matter how thick the layering would be.

I kept it rather simple and used the WMS clear stamps from Claire's store.

All the elements are WMS except the paper and the Spellbinder's die, and of course the gold embossing powder. I saw this cross used on Claire's Gallery by Julia Ashton and decided to CASE it. Definitely changed it up as I do not like to copy directly from another card...unless it's in a class or stamp camp.

Here's where I got the inspiration for this card Anthropology.

Isn't that a lovely bed and bedding?

September Verve

Verve time! Week one and the sketches and inspiration just keep getting better.

I only own a very few stamp sets from Verve, hoping to win more with every month that passes.

The stamp set used for the sentiment is Bountiful Backgrounds.

The flowers are punched out and I used 2 different styluses to get the petals to curl. I sponged the ef, but wanted a more clean look for the rest of the card.

Wedding card and envelope

 My DDL asked me to make a shower card that had more than one 'page' so all her co-workers could sign one card...and there be plenty of room. Here it is!  Well, that new young Mom asked DDL if I would make a wedding card for a wedding she was attending and needed a multi-page card. No problem...put my thinking hat on and asked a few questions like color, size, theme, etc. DDL came back with floral, three pages, no black/white, oh and Mom can you put a gift card holder in there, too? SURE, no problemo! "Mom, she really liked that her shower card had stamped images on each page, can you do that, too?"

"Absolutely!"  I said.
Now, where else can you go and order a wedding card with specifications like that?

From a paper crafter, that's where!!!!!!!

This was fun, easy, took some time to decide on the stamps and colors. DDL helped me a bit with that part.
The basket of flowers, 'Just For You', from Daisy Doodles is popped up in the middle...a lot and not at all on the sides, so it looks very rounded IRL. I love white and natural and cream all together, so that and 'Just for You' was my inspiration. All the cs was cut at 5 1/4" square and scored 1/2" on the left on all the pages and then I used  a Cropadile to punch the holes and run ribbon through them.                

Above is the inside cover and page using  sentiment, roses and background stamp, 'Beyond the Basics'. 

The embossing was a CB strip on the far right.

Above, 'Love Matters' --"I love you more today than yesterday but not as much as tomorrow."

Above, one of the stamps from "A Gentler Time"

Again, 'Beyond the Basics', which is used on every page in a different soft hue.

That bg set has  four stamps, butterflies, hearts, roses, and spirals.

The rose image is from a singlet that I bought years ago when two of the DD's got married.

Yes, their wedding days were seven months apart.

On the right, above, you can see the gift card holder that I embossed with a different strip.
The GC holder cs was cut at 5 1/4" x 8" scored and folded in half and then I punched out the space for the card.

Above.... A different angle of the GC holder with a GC in it.

The backside of the GC holder and the inside back cover that is scored in a diamond pattern.

Last, but not least, below is the box that I made for the card, below.

I guess you would call it a box envelope. It's 1/4" thick and the card just slips right in after you slide the bow down and open the flap. Easy peasy. 

French Flair is a large bg stamp from  and I used Antique Linen Distress Ink from Tim Holtz, to match all the sponging that was done all over the card and box. The card dimensions are 5 1/4" square and the box measures just 1/8" larger than the card.
Hope you enjoyed this LONG post.
