Birthday Card with Field of Daisies Layering Stamps | Rubbernecker Stamps

Hello friends!  My card today is a sweet birthday card using the beautiful Field of Daisies layering stamp set by Rubbernecker Stamps.  I'm almost out of birthday cards to mail to friends and this is a easy fun card to make for the stash!

 

I began by creating the card base:

• Using a blender brush, ink the edges of a 4-¼" x 5-½" white cardstock piece with Scarlet ink (Color Fuse set #4).  Adhere to a top-folding A2 card base with glue.
• Ink up the Horizontal Stripe background stamp with Posey ink and stamp onto white cardstock.
• Trim the striped piece to 4" x 5-¼" and adhere to the card base.
• Stamp the stems from the Field of Daisies stamp set onto white cardstock.
• Die cut with the middle sized Nested Rectangle Scallop w/Holes die.
• Add foam tape to the back and attach to the card front.

Next I stamped the flower, leaves and sentiment:

• I used my MISTI for stamping the flower and leaf layers.
• I stamped the first layer of the flowers with Posey ink.  For each layer/color I repeated the stamping until I got the look I liked.
• The small flowers are stamped with Scarlet and Nectar for the second and third layers.
• The large flower layers are stamped with Scarlet and Crimson.
• I stamped the flower centers with Crimson.
• I didn't think the stamping through for the large flower!  Since I stamped the final flower layer with Crimson, when I stamped the flower center in Crimson, it just blended in.
• My solution was to stamp the flower center with one layer of Mocha, which is a light brown in Color Fuse #3.  I took before and after photos to show you.  As you can see from this photo, adding just a bit of light brown makes the center stand out!

• Next I stamped the leaves.  I stamped the first layer of them all with Moss ink (Color Fuse #10).  The second layer is stamped with Basil ink.  There is a nice variety of four different leaves in this set!
• I used the coordinating dies to cut out all of the flowers and leaves.
• Add foam tape to the back of the large flower and one small one.  I added a double layer of foam tape to the other small flower so it would be higher than the other two.
• Adhere the flowers near the top of the stems.
• For dimension on the leaves, I put a small foam square at the leaf tip and a dot of glue at the base and adhered them to the card base.
• I stamped the sentiment from the Best Friends Etc. stamp set in black ink.  I trimmed it into a banner shape, added foam tape, and adhered it to the card.
• For a touch of bling, I added a few rhinestones around the sentiment.

I love how this card turned out and will probably make a few more for my stash!  Thanks so much for stopping by!
