Daffodil Fold Back Card (by Anne)

Good morning. Here is another of my blue & white monochrome show samples using the Spring Bird Daffodil and Breath of Spring stamp sets. Cannot stop making these – they are just so effective.

Materials:

• Spring Bird Daffodil and Breath of Spring stamp sets
• 6 X 6 inch scalloped card blank, white stamping card
• Distress Ink (Chipped Sapphire)
• Velvet embossed ribbon (blue)
• Square die or trimmer (for toppers)

How to make it:

1. Open out the card blank and randomly stamp the inside with the leafy swirl. Edge with Distress ink to frame.
2. Score the front of the card vertically in half and fold back the front. Glue down ribbon.
3. Cut two squares. Stamp one with the sentiment and decorative corners. Edge with Distress Ink and glue to the card inside.
4. Stamp the second square with the Daffodil and sentiment. Using a damp brush drag out some of the colour. Add more colour by picking up ink from your craft mat using a watercolour brush. Paint in extra shadows – use the stamp detail as a guide. Glue to the card front overhanging the folded back edge.
