Hey there! I decided to play with the layout I used for yesterday's card again, but had to throw several attempts in the trash (yes, I do make icky cards sometimes!) I kept trying to use a daisy theme with the layout and kept coming up with nothing I was happy with. Ever have one of those days?

I think the problem was I was trying so hard I wasn't paying attention to a solution that was right under my nose!

The solution was the This Day Project Life Mini Card Collection, a freebie with a $50 order from the Sale-a-bration brochure. I had chosen this collection with one of my orders, then promptly ignored how CUTE this pack of cards is!

I opened the pack, and In just a few minutes my card was born!

By cutting down the cards in the collection and using several of the coordinating patterns, this card finally went together in a snap!

I added a bloom created with the Bouquet Bigz L Die, and a 7/8" Scalloped Circle-punched greeting from A Round Array. After I glue-dotted the Coastal Cabana and Island Indigo blooms together, I scored down the center of each petal with the stylus from the Simply Scored Scoring Board and gently pinched/folded the edges of the petals. Surprisingly, Stampin' Up! doesn't offer a 5/8" Circle Punch, which is the size I needed to punch out the "you make me smile" from A Round Array, so I hand-cut it with Paper Snips.

Inside I used a sentiment from Feel Goods with Island Indigo ink, accented with a stamp from the Mixed Bunch set and Crushed Curry ink. The 1/2" wide strip on the left side of the Whisper White panel is also from the This Day Project Life Mini Card Collection.

That's all for now. This card was SUPER EASY once I stopped trying so hard!
