Cleanup cards!

I'm trying to keep my studio neat and tidy - company coming next week and we will need all the crafty space I can offer!  All that to say I spent a little time putting together a few cards yesterday with the bits I'd created in the last week or so.

First up, another Gerbera daisy - this one 'white' and for Freshly Made Sketches #625 using Jen B's darling Sketch...


Uniko's Gerbera, tucked into a punched hole in a Reverse Confetti scalloped circle!


These darling papers are from Unity's Hello, Daisy collection.
MFT's Stitched Strip once again, and another of Honey Bee's My Favorite Flower sentiments.


Next, a few more Forget-me-nots ... lest I forget that they are actually blue! and I have to return this set from The Greetery to Marcia next week!


Another RC Scalloped circle over top of a WW Noelle cutaway.
finished up with a Betterpress sentiment from their Sentiments of Wonder set.

I had a mountain of Altenew Mini ink sets out the other day testing their colors over grey... here are the resulting roses on a fun shaped card I'm fondly calling 'for the love of grey':


Spellbinders Four Petal Labels, HoneyBee Burlap EF, and 
Altenew's Ethereal Roses and Zero-waste Hearts Aplenty cover plate used to emboss.

Last but not least was a new set from The Stamp Market: Peony Dreams ... a no-line layering set that is so aptly named!


I mentioned a trick with waxed paper that my friend LeAnne shared with me recently that has been a game changer for a few detailed dies that have given me fits in the past... like this oval with all of those tiny triangles!  
Here is the 'recipe' for those of you who have asked: 
paper, waxed paper, die on top, and cut using a precision plate in your die cutting machine.  The one I use is from Sizzix called the Precision Chrome Plate.


Thanks again, LeAnne!  

Okay, it's time I get back to cleaning up - and this was a LOT!  I appreciate it if you made it to the end!
