Cheerful Daisies You made my day card for Kylie's International Project Highlights - June 2023

Hello and welcome to my blog. This is my card to entry to Kylie Bertucci's International Blog Highlights for June 2023 - the theme is Thank you. This fun-fold has become one of my favourites and it makes an extra special thank you card. This version uses the Fresh as a Daisy DSP featuring the pinky shades of Moody Mauve and Bubble Bath. By using different papers each time it is easy to give this fun-fold a breath of fresh air and to make each one look new.

The Moody Mauve card base is a stepped tri-fold yielding several panels ready to be decorated. Each panel includes a layer of Bubble Bath card and then some additional decoration. The largest panel at the back is decorated simply with a patterned piece of the Fresh as a Daisy DSP (which, for the month of June, is on offer as part of the Designer Series Paper Sale). The flowers are bold and bright.

The middle layer, viewed from the front, is embellished with a piece of Moody Mauve card textured with one of the Basics 3-d embossing folders and a matching bow. On the inside of the middle panel there is a Basic White panel, stamped with pretty Bubble Bath flowers, where your special message can be handwritten.

The front section has a plainer piece of DSP to act as a foil for the stamped and die cut flowers. There's a mixture of white, pink and mauve flowers, for variety and texture, together with some Wild Wheat leaves which echo the patterned DSP on the biggest panel. The sentiment was stamped, snipped apart, mounted with a skinny Bubble Bath layer and then positioned around the edge of the flowers. Even though the front panel is quite small, I managed to add a trio of Iridescent Pearls to complete the look.

As mentioned at the beginning I am entering Kylie's International Blog Highlights and you can follow the link to the gallery where you will find heaps more inspiration AND you can vote for your favourite five projects. At the end of the voting the Top Ten winners will be invited to take part in a blog hop at the end of the month.
