Daisy Birthday Wishes

Hi there 🙂  I have a friend who loves daisies, and it was a special birthday for her (60!).  I’ve been eyeing up this sweet image from Di’s Digi Stamps for a while, but one thing or another kept coming up.  Well, I made it a priority to do it this time, so printed this adorable image, called Hedgehog Popsy Daisy, and colored it with my Prismacolor pencils.

It’s been a while since I’ve done a fancy fold card, and I wanted to implement a pocket for a gift card in this, so I went to work, wrecking more sheets of paper than I’d care to say……This project was a bit more “math-y” than I’m comfortable with lol.  When I finally got the folds and windows right, I started dressing things up a bit.

 

I’ve had the pretty pink daisy paper for quite some time, and this was the perfect card to use it on!!  I cut the lacy corners with a Cheery Lynn corner die, the sentiment was cut with a die that I threw the packaging out before recording the brand….my bad!!  The little white daisies were cut with my Cricut and Nuvo drops made the centres.  I used a MS punch for a bit of greenery.  I printed the sentiment on the computer and used the same shape die to cut it out as I used for the window.  The gift card pocket is cut with the same die again, which I cut in half.

I’m super thrilled with the finished product, and my friend was too 🙂

I’d like to enter this in the following:
