more color mondays – daffodil delight, pecan pie and old olive

Today is a TWOFER! That is two for the price of one – not only is it a fun Fall Color challenge for our weekly More Color Mondays color challenge but it is a sketch challenge also!

This easy card sketch #135 uses the bright and cheery Sunflower Fields DSP and the Sunflower 3D embossing folder which is one of my ALL -Time Favorite folders and I am said to say that it has moved onto the LAST CHANCE LIST! Do not wait this is one of those folders you will be sad you did not get – the detail is gorgeous and it WILL NOT LAST LONG (I predict)!

Measurements:
BASE: Daffodil Delight CS: 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
scored at 4 1/4″, 1 1/4″ x 2 3/4″
Basic White CS: 4″ x 5 1/4″
Old Olive CS: 1 3/8″ x 3″
Pecan Pie CS: 1 3/4″ x 3 3/4″
DSP: (3) 1″ x 4″

I am SO SAD to see this embossing folder go – it is one of my ALL TIME favorites – if this is one that you have admired DO NOT WAIT it has moved onto the LAST CHANCE LIST and I do not think this will last long!

emboss the Basic White layer with the Sunflower 3D embossing folder.

Adhere the embossed layer onto the card front of the Daffodil Delight card base.
Take (3) 1″ x 4″ pieces of Sunflower Fields DSP and start on one side and adhere the DSP strip down.
TIP: Whenever I adhere strips across a layer or card surface I ALWAYS adhere the two side strips and then position the center strip last – this is the easiest way to evenly space the strips. Adhere down the strip on the opposite side second.
Adhere the center DSP strip last this way you can position it evenly between the two side strips!
Stamp the Happy Birthday sentiment in Black ink on the Daffodil Delight small layer from the Framed and Fabulous stamp set from the NEW Hot Foil Release of products this sentiment set is so awesome even if you do not have the Hot Foil system this set is an all purpose sentiment set with great circle dies as well as the Hot Foil dies!
I added three Darling Duckling Flat Pearls from the 2025-2027 In Color Flat Pearls embellishments set and popped up the sentiment onto Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I added it to the card front over the three strips of DSP.

more color mondays – daffodil delight, cajun craze and mossy meadow

Today’s More Color Mondays color challenge is getting us ready for Fall! The Sunflower Fields Designer Series Paper was the inspiration for this Fall color combination of Daffodil Delight, Cajun Craze and Mossy Meadow!

And the card inspiration is a CASE from one of my favorite demonstrators, Susan S. this Triple Display Easel card is a fun and easy WOW fold!

Follow along for all the measurements and details!

Measurements:
BASE: Mossy Meadow CS: 4 1/4″ x 11″
scored at 4 1/4″ and 10″
Cajun Craze CS: 1 3/4″ x 5 1/4″, scrap for die
Daffodil Delight CS: 1″ x 4 1/4″, 1 1/2″ x 5″, and
4″ x 5 1/4″, scrap for die
DSP: (2) 3/4″ x 4″, 4″ square
Basic White CS: 4″ x 5 1/4″

Score the Mossy Meadow 4 1/4″ x 11″ base at
4 1/4″ and 10″.

Take the two Daffodil Delight layers and emboss them in the Sunflower 3D embossing folder.

Adhere the 4″ square DSP layer to the outside
4 1/4″ square panel.
Turn the base card over so the outside of the card is facing up and adhere one of the 3/4″ pieces of DSP to the top panel and the Basic White layer to the middle panel (which will be the back of the card!)
Die cut the Daffodil Delight scrap with the Spotlight on Nature second smallest die and then die cut the Cajun Craze scrap with the third die from the smallest the one that just has ridges no holes.

Stamp the sentiment “SO grateful FOR you” from the Lily of the Valley stamp set in Cajun Craze ink on the Daffodil Delight die.

Make cuts with the NEW detail scissors about every 1/4″ around the die ridges of the Cajun Craze die – crinkle the cuts to make them look like petals! Pop up the Daffodil Delight die onto the “petal -cut” Cajun Craze die.

Adhere the 4″ x 5 1/4″ Daffodil Delight 3D embossed layer to the inside middle panel.
Adhere the smaller Daffodil Delight embossed panel to the Cajun Craze matte layer. Popup the right side of the sentiment petal piece and adhere so the left side hangs over the Cajun Craze matte piece.

Adhere the embossed layer to the top folded panel – I left about 1/4″ surrounding the right and top sides.

Adhere the other 3/4″ DSP patterned paper to the Daffodil Delight matte piece
Pop it up on Stampin’ Dimensionals this will form the “kick-stand” for the easel portion of the card.
Open up the bottom panel of the card and adhere the DSP kickstand piece about 1/4″ above the bottom Mossy Meadow cardstock edge.

Then the easel will have a stopper to hold it up!

I added Adhesive-Backed Metallic Gems to the sentiment flower piece in Copper to enhance the Fall Color theme!

Hope you try this fun fold with items in your stash – let me know what you come up with! Now it’s your turn to create – one stamp at a time!
