Floral Friday Puple and Pink Daisy card
The card today is a birthday card. The patterned paper is from a 6x6 paper pad by a Hampton Arts company called Studio G. The flower stamp is on a Spellbinders die cut.
Idk why I stamped the flower onto purple cardstock, seriously idk why. But then I used a Spellbinders die to cut it out...crooked. So it sat in my drawer until recently, before calendar season. I'm looking at it going, what do I do with this thing, which direction should the card be, why did I put foam adhesive on it and why didn't I hide the foam better? Ugh! I took a Copic marker and colored the foam adhesive purple when my hand jerked and the marker went on the die cut. Awesome. I colored the edges in the darker purple and again my hand jerked so I brought the color in toward the flower. The flower got lost on the die cut so I put Stickles in the center and I wish I wouldn't have. The card's orientation is portrait. Here are some other cards using the same stamp. Thanks for looking.The die cut in the center is a Cricut cut. It is 2 layers with the pink paper by Sunborn and the purple cardstock from my stash. Here is a fun fact about that die cut, on the back it says, "CCR Cartridge Freebie called Labels."
Let me dissect that lingo; CCR is "Cricut Craft Room". That was the second computer software that the Cricut company used and could be used with the archaic Cricut Expression. The word "Cartridge" should also be a giveaway that these are old die cuts because Cricut went away with cartridges when they introduced the "Explore Air". When they released the Explore Air they also created a new software called "Design Space" to take place the CCR. Sadly, Cricut still uses the same DS software that it did back then. SMH.
Anyway, below are links of cards using the same daisy stamp.

KCTC February calendar layout
This is my nephew and his dad, my brother, at the KCTC. end of the year ceremony. I think it stands for Kent County Training Center. Idk. I'm guessing. He went there as a high school student to learn about law enforcement.
So, I made the background with scraps of cardstock and added a few stickers at the bottom by Creative Imaginations. The pennants/banner were cut out with my Cricut. I stamped the letters with Stampin Up alphabets stamps, with SU ink. I sewed the banner on with embroidery floss. Thanks for looking.

Floral Friday Bright Pink Card
This card is not my favorite but they don’t all have to be my favorite. The cardstock used is by Recollections. The stamp is by Inkadinkado and I colored it in with Copic markers before I used a Sizzix die to cut it out. I added some rhinestones and enamel dots from my collection. I put some washi tape on the side to make the card look less, and I mean less crooked. It doesn’t make it straight. It makes it less crooked. This card is an anniversary card. Thanks for looking.
Here are some other cards using the Same Stamp

February Calendar Layout Video Chat
This is my Brother's 2023 calendar. I never realized how much I video chat with the kids. Upper left is nephew Spencer and in screen is Emberlee. Then the middle picture is my great-nephew Andrew. And then the last picture is of my niece Evalynn.
So, the patterned paper is from Michael's (Recollections). The border on top is a Cricut weld of circles. The video chat circles are Close to my Heart alphabet stamps and Creative Memories circle punch. The hearts in the border are Lawn Fawn dies. The hearts in the center are Cricut dies and a Creative Memories punch.
Thanks for looking.

Check out these Poinsettia cards.
I clear heat embossed the poinsettia stamp, then inked it with distress ink to give them color, and circle punch by Creative Memories. The background embossing folder is by Creative Expressions (That's a guess). Thanks for looking I think I have a few more of these flower stamps to bore you with.
