I hope you are all well and healthy!  The craziness of the world just makes me want to curl up in a blanket.  But, that will not help.  The best we can do is to try to stay positive, motivated and productive.  I do find it hard to be inspired to create some days, but sitting down at my table, surrounded by my "stuff" usually gets me motivated. 
So I am trying to play with items I had recently bought for upcoming classes.  Instead of making a sample for you all to follow, I have been trying to see how many different projects I can make with one stamp set or bundle.  I shared before all the different looks I came up with for the Breathtaking Bouquet background stamp.  Last night, I opened my Daisy Lane bundle.  This is a stamp set and coordinating  small daisy punch.  It also coordinates with the (larger) daisy punch and Delightful Daisy stamp set.  I copied a sample from the catalog (did you know that Stampin' Up! wants you to use the catalog for inspiration?!).  I paired it with the Birch background stamp.  Yes, I love background stamps!!  I did not make different looks last night but did try different color combinations.  So I have purple, pink and yellow cards.

In this time of social isolation, a handmade card is a thoughtful way to brighten someone's day.  SU has a campaign to share your projects.  Post a picture (on your social media or on mine) with #sharesunshine  
I will be announcing a share the sunshine contest shortly.  Check back for details!

What will you make today?
