This Ornate Garden Daisy Thank You Card was made with the new Ornate Garden Suite of products. This suite will be in the new Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog in June so this is an early release! One set of products coming in the next catalog that you can get your hands on now! And who among us does not need a box arriving from Stampin’ Up! right about now!!

I resisted pre-ordering it as I can do as a Demonstrator, at least not until the end of March. And I did have a short trip in there and stocking up for the coronavirus, which I’m glad I did as early as possible. So finally I realized how beautiful the suite was and that I had to have it, right away!

This card just came from thumbing through the Ornate Garden Specialty Designer Series Paper. It is called “Specialty” because some of the papers have gold foil accents on them. I liked this small daisy print today!

I started off thinking I would use the Daisy Punch to add a 3D daisy to the front of the card but I decided to stick with using stamping from the suite. I stamped the single daisy in the Ornate Style Stamp Set in Memento Ink and colored it in with So Saffron and Old Olive Stampin’ Blends. You might notice that one of the coordinating colors for the designer paper is called Bumblebee! Must be a new In Color! So my yellow doesn’t really match the paper but I wanted to color in around the daisy rather than leave it stark white. The photo I think actually makes the color a little brighter than it is in person so it really is okay.

You may see that I layered the daisy designer paper on Whisper White to help it stand out a little more against the Old Olive card base. Sometimes I do this and sometimes I don’t. The layers, then, have 1/8″ margins instead of 1/4″ or I could have cut them smaller with a bigger margin.

The ornate layer behind the daisy is in the Ornate Garden Suite, of course! It is in the Ornate Layers Dies and I cut the daisy paper down to fit on it just perfectly. Be sure to run your die through your die-cutting machine two or three times and put it in the narrow end first. I just used my old die brush to get out the few pieces that stuck in the design so mine cut out well.

I popped up the ornate frame with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Behind it just at the top is the Old Olive Ribbon that comes in the Ornate Garden Ribbon Combo Pack, along with Terracotta Tile. The greeting is stamped in Old Olive Ink using the stamp in the Ornate Thanks Stamp Set. This is basically a pretty easy card to make!

Take some time to look over all the products in the Ornate Garden Suite. There are two stamp sets and two sets of dies. These are matched up in Bundles and you will save 10%. There is also an Embossing Folder, the ribbon combo, the designer paper and some Gilded Gems for embellishment. If you want the WHOLE THING, just use this one number #154153 to order the Ornate Garden Suite Collection. That saves the effort of entering each number of each product into your order. But if you like, you can order the products separately and get just the ones you want now.

This is a beautiful collection of Stampin’ Up! products so go check them out in the Stampin’ Up! Online Store!
