I decided to make a card and a tag for this blog hop.  Daffodiles are so pretty and the sentiments are great in this set.

First, I started off by stamping the images using Altenew inks in yellows for the flower (I did add in a light orange ink from my stash), and greens for the stem and leaves on Neenah white cardstock.  I knew that I might what to add some gold heat embossing, so I saved the outline image for last.

Next, I used the coordinating dies to cut it out.  On a piece of white cardstock, I used some distress inks to ink blend a background.  For the cards, I used blues, and for the tag, I added in a bit of pink and lavender.  I die cut a rectangle and a tag out of the backgrounds.  Then I reached for one of my favorite stencils- it has tiny hearts all over it- and used texture paste mixed with a little bit of Nuvo glimmer paste for some texture and interest.

While waiting for the hearts to dry, I picked a couple of sentiments, and white heat embossed them only a piece of black cardstock.

Once I had all my pieces ready to go, I assembled the card and the tag, using glue and foam squares to put my projects together.
