These cards feature printed vellum. I placed a rectangle of printed vellum to fit the bottom 2/3 of the card. Place the adhesive at the very top of the vellum so it will be hidden when you glue the cardstock strip over it. I used decorative scissors on the lower edge of the strip but it could have been ripped or border punched as well. I layered the small white flower, the vellum, then cardstock 5 petal punchies. I placed them onto the card and with the card open placed it on an old mouse pad and used a push pin to create the hole through all layers and inserted the tiny brad. A greeting could be added on the strip or beside the flower.

All Occasion Stack Class - Daisy & Greeting
These are the next set of cards. I feel I've gotten carried away with daisy confetti. They can be used in so many ways. I used a large variety of decorative paper which was trimmed to fit the front of the card. I added a color printed greeting which has been highlighted with a white daisy and a tiny black brad. I made a variety of greetings and if it was not what they wanted they could swap with another lady in the class or just turn it over and leave it blank or stamp a greeting. Easy to make a lot of cards for any occasion and not have them look exactly the same. Some paper was muted and soft and lent themselves to sympathy or get well cards. Bright and cheery paper for birthday or thinking of you cards. Some were thank you or Just for you cards.
All Occasion Stack Class - Scallop Accent
This card features a scallop accent. It was created with the Stampin Up! Scallop punch, the 1 3.8" circle punch, a 1.25" circle with another shape punched into it. You want to punch the hole first then align the 1.25" punch over it. I used the MS Fleur de Lis, stars, hearts, daisies, etc. I mostly used stripped decorative paper. It card can be used in a tall or wide orientation. I picked colors from the decorative paper for the accent. Any color combination will do. Another versatile design.

All Occasion Stack Class - Daisy Trio
I had 8 ladies in my All Occasion Stack Class this morning. What's a stack class? That is when you make many cards in one class. There are no rules in my classes so some designed cards that loosely resemble these. I should take pics of some of them. Some real creativity was used and a good time was had by all.
Here's the first card. Daisy confetti over a set of punched shapes with a matching strip of paper on a coordinating card. The circles are 1 1/4" circle punchies and the squares are the smallest on the Sizzix square die. I used tiny white brads in the centres. Use a push pin on an old mouse pad to made the hole for the brad. This is a versatile design as it can be landscape or portrait orientation, a variety of punched shapes can be used, the squares can be set into a diamond shape and any color combination can be used. The strip of paper can be ripped, cut with decorative scissors or cut straight. All around good design. A greeting could be stamped on the strip if you want.

All Occasion Stack Class - Daisy Squares
I used several different SCB papers that included the yellow to match the wedding confetti daisies. The squares were punched with a Marvy punch. The squares were glued to the card. They could be arranged in several patterns. I placed the daisies over the squares and create holes in the daisies/square/card with a push pin. Insert a tiny white brad. Trim the SCB paper strip and glue in relation to the layout of the squares.

All Occasion Stack Class - Circle Buckle
I started with the ribbon on this card as well. I used chocolate brown, pink and rosy red cardstock for the card to provide a variety in the design. The white layer was embossed with a Cuttlebug embossing folder and glued to the card. The buckles were all cut in dark brown with a QuicKutz die and threaded onto the ribbon. The ribbon was taped to the inside of the card on top and bottom. The greeting was stamped in brown onto taupe cardstock, trimmed and layered onto pink cardstock and then trimmed again. This accent was then adhered to the card.

All Occasion Stack Class - Circle Collection
The inspiration for the card comes from the Go to Sketches magazine. The SCB paper collection is a retired StUp! set. It is a double sided paper which provided the variety of pattern needed for this design. I created the greeting in Corel Draw which allows me to print it in any color I want then I punched it out with the 1" punch. I cut the SCB paper circles with the smallest one on the Sizzix circle die. Simple but effective design.

All Occasion Stack Class - Flower Tag
I started with the ribbon for this card. I found scrapbook paper that work well with it. The SCB paper was trimmed and glued to the card. The ribbon is slipped into a slit in the fold of the card and taped to the inside of the card on both ends. The tag is a Sizzix tag die which was layered onto black cardstock and trimmed around with scissors. The flower is a StUp! punch done twice in SCB paper and pink card stock. The flower had a 1/8" hole punched for the rivet. Once complete, the tag is hung onto the ribbon with a length of white cotton thread.
