Crafty Collaborations Monochromatic Color Challenge 2025 Week 1 - Daffodil Delight

Welcome to a new year of Crafty Collaborations Monochromatic Color Challenge and we are starting with Daffodil Delight to showcase for Week 1. What better way to start 2025 than exploring new ways to use Stampin' Up!'s beautiful colors to create your own wonderful projects. 

With Winter settling in here in Colorado, I felt like I needed to create a card to remind us of warm Spring days that are just a few months away to help chase away the Winter blues. Daffodil Delight is such a pretty, cheerful yellow and I think it is a perfect color to bring some sunshine into our lives. One of my favorite products for creating beautiful clean and simple cards would have to be the Paper Butterfly Accents and I used one of the butterfly die cuts for my focal image for my design. I added soft color using a Blending Brush to customize it to coordinate with the designer series paper background. Which reminds me, the background strips feature a Sneak Peek of a new product from the January-April 2025 Mini Catalog. If you love soft, pretty paper designs in pastel colors, you will love the new Beautiful Bokeh 6"x6" Designer Series Paper from the new Beautiful Bokeh Suite Collection. This pretty paper will be available to order starting January 7th, 2025.

Birthday cards are one of my favorite all occasion cards to create and I couldn't resist to creating a pretty Spring birthday design using Daffodil Delight. When I think of Spring, I think of butterflies so it was an easy choice to use the Paper Butterfly Accents for my focal design. Using a Blending Brush, I gently applied Daffodil Delight Classic ink to the butterfly die cut to build up soft color. I attached the butterfly die cut to the center of the large circle die cut to give it stability. I added some texture to the background using the Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder and created a fun background with strips of the new Beautiful Bokeh Designer Series Paper. For the sentiment, I stamped the image from the Something Fancy stamp set with Daffodil Delight Classic ink onto the sentiment label die cut with the coordinating Something Fancy Dies. I attached both the sentiment label and the focal circle to the card front using Stampin' Dimensionals to pop them up and add dimension to the design. To complete the card design, I added several Daffodil Delight Glossy Dots for a touch of bling. I love how well this card design showcases the versatility of Daffodil Delight with a variety of products.
