Today I want to share a seventh idea to show you where I get my crafting ideas from. I get ideas from my embellishments.
Every time Stampin' Up releases another catalog, I end up buying a lot of embellishments and love to use them.
Today's ideas come from the In Color Faceted Dots:
This pack is retiring very soon - look at the discounted price - WOW! There are five colors in the package: three sizes of each color in three different sizes.
- Pretty Peacock
- Purple Posy
- Rococco Rose
- Seaside Spray
- Terracotta Tile
I challenged myself to make a five cards, using each of the colors in the pack. I chose to use my Daisy punches for my cards - the layout would be similar but each card is a bit different:
I love these punches - they make quick floral embellishments for cards! I don't have a lot of gift tags/cards tucked away so decided I would create five of these to tuck away for a variety of occasions.
Gift Tag 1 = Terracotta Tile
I also used some leftover Mosaic Mood designer paper and punched two daisies for the front.
Gift Tag 2 = Pretty Peacock
For this gift tag I used the retiring Label Me Bold stamp set for the background image, and stamped it three times using Pretty Peacock ink.
Gift Tag 3: Rococco Rose
On this gift card/tag I embossed the front of the card and the punched a Rococco Rose and a Whisper White daisy. I added the strip of Whisper White across the front of the gift card for added contrast.
Gift Tag 4 = Purple Posy
On this gift tag I embossed a layer of Whisper White using the Tin Tile embossing folder. Then I punched one large daisy and two small daisies for my floral image.
Gift Tag 5 = Seaside Spray
For my final gift card, I used a stamp from the Daisy Delight stamp set and stamped it across the top and bottom of my card. Then I added a Seaside Spray/Whisper White flower for the front.
I hope that these cards gave you some inspiration and that you will have a close look at your embellishments to see what inspiration they can provide. Happy crafting!
