It’s no secret that I love daisies, especially large bright gerberas. But for today’s project I decided to try something altogether different. Instead of colourful flowers on a white background I thought it would be fun to reverse that. So my flowers would be completely white while everything else would provide the colour. One of my favourite colours to pair with white is blue, especially dark blue. This always seems to create an elegant result that never gets old. Then with that basic plan in ... VIEW POST
Another Cheerful Daisy
Cheerful Daisies is one of those stamp sets that I honestly think I’ll never get tired of. If you’ve followed my blog for a while you’ll know I love daisies. They’re uncomplicated and come in a huge range of colours. Whether it’s the little wild ones that grow in the lawn or the much larger gerberas, they always make me smile.

Daisies In The Dark

But with a limited budget it’s hard to know what to prioritise first. In the end I settled on some additional cardstock in some of my favourite new colours along with some ink pads and Stampin’ Blends. Then I added in a few ... VIEW POST

Cheerful Daisies
Daisies make me smile. Whether that’s big cultivated Gerberas or small wild daisies in the lawn, seeing them simply brightens my day. So I was excited to discover the new, and aptly named, Cheerful Daisies Stamp Set in the Stampin’ Up! 2023/2024 Annual Catalogue. While there are four sentiments in the set, it was versatility of the three main daisies that caught my eye. I decided to use the two full flower images, along with a stem and the leaf to create today’s sneak peek project, a colourful ... VIEW POST
