Stampin' Up! Daffodil Delight

 


This week, is week 21 in the Colour Creations blog hop and this week we continue our journey through the existing Stampin' Up! core colours, working in alphabetical order. This week our feature colour is  Daffodil Delight, a member of the Brights family of colours. Daffodil Delight is a bright sunshiny yellow colour.


 This week I had actually decided it was time to finally open up the Zany Zoo bundle and have some fun with it. Unfortunately due to an unforeseen, unplanned and rushed visit to the vet with our youngest dog I had very little time to plan my card for this week. So out came the Annual Catologue for inspiration and so I have actually ended up CASING the card on page 46. It was actually a lot of fun to put together.


The beauty of the Zoo Crew suite of products is that there are dies that match the stamp set but also some of those dies match images on the paper. Which for me is great as it means no fussy cutting. 

The central dancing tiger image is one from the the Zoo Crew paper and has been cut using one of the dies from the Zany Zoo bundle. Her tutu has been coloured using Daffodil Delight Stampin blends. 

The two singing tortoises are stamped images from the Zany Zoo bundle and die cut using the corresponding dies. Stampin Blends in Daffodil Delight and Granny Apple Green have been used to add colour. 

The stage curtains have been cut from a piece of the Les Shoppes paper using dies from Zany Zoo and the stage backdrop is a reverse side of Zany Zoo paper. 

For the stage floor I have cut a piece of Pecan Pie card and embossed it using the Timber Embossing Folder to make it look like a wooden stage floor. 


 

The cute little flowers are also from the Zany Zoo dies and have been cut using Daffodil Delight card. The flower centres are Iridescent Pearls Basic Jewels that have been coloured using Daffodil Delight Stampin Blends.

The sentiment is from the Zany Zoo stamp set but as I only wanted to use the "Celebrate You"words I used the marker to stamp method, using Pecan Pie. 

For the inside of the card I couldn't resist using the Zany Zoo dies to cut another cute image from the Zoo Crew paper and I have added the whole sentiment once again using Pecan Pie. 


Next in tonight's blog hop is the lovely fancy fold queen Sharon Davern. I look forward to seeing this week's beautiful creation.

  1. So many cute details on your card Theresa. The colouring of the tiger’s tutu brings Daffodil Delight to the stage along with the DD curtains. The wood grain floor makes a beautiful stage.

  5. A cute scene here, Theresa. The black background paper really allows your tiger and turtles shine. I love that the DSP allowed you to avoid fussy cutting, as I know your feelings on that! I hope your little puppy is okay xx
