Daffodils

It is daffodil time, and is easy to create beautiful daffodils using Susan's Garden Notes Daffodil die set to create springtime cards. 

For the background I used red and orange Distress Inks to create a marbled background.

A large rectangle die was used to die cut an opening in a piece of white card stock to create a window.  The edges were taped off and sprayed with an orange ink.  This piece was glued over the colored background.

Three daffodils were created using the Garden Notes Daffodil die set.  Susan's Bouquet Stems die was used for the stems.  The leaves were die cut using white card stock and green ink sponged on.  They were lightly spritzed with water and shaped.  A piece of brown card stock was used to create the ground for the flowers.

A small rectangle die was used to die cut a small white rectangle to fit inside the large die cut rectangle.  One of  Susan's old verse stamps was used for the sentiment.  This piece was added to the center of the large die cut opening, using dimensional tape.  A black pearl was added to the corner of this small rectangle.
