Bright Daisy and Elegant Birdcage

I hope you having a fun and relaxing weekend. I got in some fun stamping time and I have two projects to share that couldn’t be more different.

First I have a big white cheerful daisy with lots of bright yellow and fun texture.

 
I punched the white embossed petals with my Stampin’ Up! small oval punch and attached them to a 1” punched circle.  I added a 3/4” punched yellow embossed circle to complete the daisy center. I cut the stem with deckle scissors and created the leaves with a Sizzix die.  I ran both the stem and leaves through my crimper to add more texture.  I created the oval double matted frame using Nestabilities oval dies and mounted with mounting tape. The sentiment was cut out with deckle scissors and attached to the stem and embellished with a bright yellow bow.

The second was made using an elegant gold embossed birdcage image from the Stampavie Penny Johnson Vintage Collection.

 
I stamped the image twice with versa on cream cardstock and embossed with gold embossing powder. I cut the image out with snips and cut center of the birdcage out with a crafty knife and popped it up over the second image. I  cut a cream tag with Nestabilities tag die and drew a border around the tag edge using a versa marker and embossed it with gold embossing powder. I used an embossed paper for the eyelet punched  layer and layered it over a piece of cream cardstock that was bordered with gold embossing powder. I punched out several foliage leaves and punched pine pieces and light touched them to the versa and embossed with gold embossing powder.  I attached the tag to the front of the card and then created a foliage spray on the bottom.  I popped up the birdcage over the spray of foliage and attached a gold organdy multi loop bow  to the tag top and heated it to appear more aged and vintage.
