Simply Amazing Day 4 Spotlight Hop

Hi friends!  Welcome back to Day 4 of Verve's March Spotlight Hops!  I'm excited to be back for another day of spotlights and can't wait to see what everyone has created!  All the stamps and dies you're seeing this week are available in the Verve Store right now and on sale 20% off!

Once again, I'm the first stop on the hop, so settle in and hop along with us as we take a closer look at at Simply Amazing, and the Simply Daisies and Amazing Adjectives die sets.



I made today's card in the same stamping session as my spotlight on Friday.  I just loved the colors I used on that card and had to play some more with the scraps on my desk.  I did some background stamping with the large outline flower from Simply Amazing on the crumb cake, so saffron and barely banana layers. Next I layered them together and added the sentiment on the crumb cake layer, breaking things up with a border die cut from the Scallop Trim Trio Die Set.  I accented the sentiment with a few hearts that were cut from the border die, then made my accent flower using the stamps and coordinating Simply Daisies Die Set.  I finished off with a button and a twine bow.  Love the dimension and detail you can achieve with these die cut flowers.

Your card is so pretty! I love the color combo!

FYI Had a hard time finding where to comment but I am 74 and computer challenged. LOL Unusual colors but you make them work by your placement and using the outline Daisy to make your own design paper. Great job using up the scraps to make a beautiful card.

AnnieD said...

It's a beautiful card. I could not honestly use that sentiment with anyone besides my husband. Many other sentiments would work.

Amy C. said...

Julee, I love all the new sets but this has the edge. The daisy is amazing and those word dies are to die for. You have put them to great use today on this lovely card.
