Daffodil Basket Card
Hi crafters! I know it is too late for Easter, but with a small sentiment change, this card is just a gorgeous spring basket full of flowers for any occasion!
The finished dimensions are 7 1/4" x 8 1/2" in size. All for now, Sue x
Lovely card Sue, beautiful. daffodils are always so cheerful. Carmen, prayers said for the Kid, hope all goes well today with his op. You all must be so worried for him. You are like his family. Crewe Trish, good news for your brother to continue treatment, hope it helps. Are you feeling any better. Pat, remember beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Maureen in a nurses uniform, err don't think so, watch out Mr L. Poor George, what has he to put up with lol. Elaine, behave yourself. Lynda, nice to see you back, hope you are feeling better, migraine is so debilitating. Yvonne, sorry you are still struggling, I wish I could wave a magic wand and make you all better. June, glad the craft day went well. Sounded like good fun. Elaine, I know Andrew will bounce back, he is a strong willed man and so determined. Hugs to all,especially our poorly and missing friends, we need you well and back.
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, this daffodil die set was the first one I purchased from the April release and it has not disappointed me, I think it really is gorgeous and can be used any time of the year, I love the video, so informative xx
Pam I reiterate all you have said. If you are back at work today I hope all goes well.
One of our sons and granddaughter are down for a few days, she is only 5 and a bundle of energy. Her mum has to work which is a shame. We made a card yesterday for her daddy who's birthday is on Thursday, we cut out some sporting shapes from your die set Sue and coloured them in, silver golf club, then left the die in place and went over with a black sharpie pen to create the football, etc. She loved using my little baby die machine, then we put them through the xyron and she stuck them all over the card. She would not wait until Thursday so had to give evidence her daddy the card, you should have seen her face, something I will remember always. Today she is going to make a card for her other nanny -she was covered in glitter yesterday as we prepared some roses ready for it, oh what joy.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs June Smith xxxx
I knew by the title, Daffodil Basket Card, that I would love today's card.... even before I saw it! Two of my favorite things: daffodils and baskets! Awesome card! Love the textures and colors! Adorable flowers and basket! Wish I was getting this in my mailbox!
Good Morning Sue. I love this embossing folder. The card says fresh spring morning to me. Brilliant for cheering anyone up. Such a lovely card. Regards Ann Toppcards
Morning Sue. How beautiful. What a happy way to start the day. There are many many spring flowers that give us the feeling of a new start, new hope, and that summer will arrive at some point not matter how short our summer days seem to be recently in the UK, but there's something about daffs that makes our heart sing, maybe it's because they are one of the first signs of new hope each year. Your basket lends itself to so many beautiful happy cards and paper projects, and its one of those dies that as soon as you see it idea's flood in (unusual for me) but its a gorgeous easy die to work with all through the year not only Easter. It's helped me make some pretty (if I do sayso myself) flower girl wedding stationary cards, that's just one of many idea's to use this versatile basket and as for the daffodils - it's right up there on the top of my Finishing Touches list along with the rest of new launch floral collection lol. So as soon as I close the front door on my two, while Andy is distracting the dog from the squirrel tree's I'll be getting inspiration from the best ☺ and I can't wait. So in the meantime Sue, my love n hugs are winging their way to you and I hope your day is as lovely as you are xxx
Love those daffodils Sue. Haven't got your basket die......Yet! However it would be so useful for all flowers, not just daffodils. a pretty card, Hugs xx P Austen
Morning Sue. This is a beautiful card. Clean, bright colours are just perfect for you gorgeous basket and daffodils. The whole thing is a work of art and i would be so happy for it to sit on my mantlepiece. Will have a try at making this one for my friends wedding anniversary next week. Thanks for the great video. Best Wishes. Denise T x
This was one of the favourites from the last release, so happy and springlike.
June, isn't it fabulous card making with granddaughters, one of my favourite things too. Because they live in Sydney, my granddaughter is only here a few times a year but as soon as she arrives she disappears to the craft room and some very happy memories are created every time.
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, Hope you had a lovely Weekend, I Love this daffodil die set, I think it really is lovely and I use it a lot in different ways, I love watching the video its so helpful to us crafters.
Pam good luck at work today hope it all goes well for you, I reiterate all you have said and send love and healing hugs to all that are poorly, and to all who need them Have a good day Love Sharon xxx
Oh this is lovely sue I love daffs my favourite flowersthis card would make hearts sing when it was revived its my 79th on Thursday if that beauty came through my letter box wow !!!!!!!! Love always sue thank you june horrocks xxxxxxxxxxxxx
What a happy, cheerful card. Daffodils really cheer us up after the dreary winter. I would keep the daffodils for Easter, but fill the basket with summer flowers & foliage, thank you for the inspiration .Sue.
This is stunning and oh so beautiful, who wouldn't love a basket full of flowers that last for ever. Thank you so much Sue you really work hard for us and we love you for it. Have a great day, hugs xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Hi Sue - I always have daffodils around the house in the spring as they are such a stunning sight after winter. They are one of my very favourite flowers and with these dies we can have daffodils all year round. This is a beautiful card made more so by the embossing and using your beautiful frames. Will enjoy watching the video a bit later. Sending best wishes YvonneMayxx

Hi Sue, Beautiful! Anyone would love to receive this I'm sure. Daffodils are one of my favourite flowers, they are so cheerful. My Mam used to love them - she would always have two or three vases full in Spring. At her funeral, everyone took away a small bunch of them to remember her. Love and hugs, Alison xx
Morning Sue, I love everything on this card, the embossing folder looks fabulous, the basket and daffodils look fabulous, and the 'bling' looks fabulous. I love this card !! Lots of love from Patricia xx
Beautiful card SUE I do like die sets that work for themselves and all we have to do is think about colours Sometimes my imagination won't see beyond the end of my nose and need dies like this to just relax and play with
Good morning Sue Beautiful card and fabulous video! I love daffodils and in my opinion yours are the best daffodil dies on the market. The Easter basket is so versatile (I seem to be saying that to a lot of your dies lol!). Hugs x Heather T
Morning Sue, a lovely card today. Daffodils always remind me of a new start and in their lovely basket they look so pretty.

Good morning Sue and everyone I love the card and I did treat myself to the die a couple of weeks ago so a play day is what is called for me thinks Not watched the video yet but look forward to it got to take OH to hospital appointment this morning Anyway have a great day folks Love Theresa G xx
Very pretty card that could be a spring birthday card or a Mother's Day card for someone who loves daffodils as my mum did. She certainly would have appreciated this.
Morning Sue, lovely card, daffodils always look so cheerful and would make a lovely her well card Pam I hope all goes well at work today and June have fun with your granddaughter Elaine be careful what you wish for with our Maureen, you never know might happen Take care everyone, Jess xxx
Hi Sue, a gorgeous card. I love the daffodils in the basket and the background. Thanks for your video, another to catch up with next week when we are home.
Hi Sue. What a really lovely cheerful card. I agree that it works for any springtime occasion, not just for Easter. For me, the star of the show is the embossing folder that you have used for the background.
Hello Sue, What a truly beautiful card today, it uplifts the soul just to see it. Pam, I hope all goes well at work today. June S, how lovely reading about your granddaughter giving the card to her dad because she couldn't wait. It's such a joy. Elaine, I hope all the family are keeping well. Mmm you have the Nurse's uniform so I couldn't be so cruel as to deprive you of that office, Norah can be the eye candy and I'll be the maid as I resemble Julie Walters in Acorn Antiques, I could even wear the sporting headband and wrap around apron, spilling the soup as I walk along ha ha. Oh this could be such fun and Mr L won't know what's hit him!!! Poor George just sits and shakes his head when I tell him what we've planned lol. Myra, I have circled in red ink yesterday's date on my calendar. The date that your flabber has been ghasted is truly a date to remember ha ha. PP hope you are feeling a bit brighter and better. Laine, I hope you are picking up as well. Love to all Maureen xxxx
Hi Sue, What a lovely card, so lifelike, I can firmly smell the flowers. And thank you for all your work in doing the videos to show us how it's done. Hugs, Rose
Hello Sue A lovely sunny card on a drizzly dull day thank you I will watch the video when my granddaughters have gone home.June we have just finished making father's day cards using the happy die Katie has a baby blue machine that she uses all the time her favourite Christmas present.We are just about to make some butterfly cakes then I will probably collapse still get tired easily.Pam I hope work goes well today.Elaine and Maureen you are making me laugh.
Hi Sue Thank you for the great video on how to create this wonderful card, daffodils are so lovely they lift your heart and this would make a beautiful get well card so I'd like to virtually send it to all our poorly friends
Elaine and Maureen you are awful but I like you, thanks for the laugh. I was due to go to Barbados to the World Flower Show in a couple of weeks but have had to cancel, hubby is more important. Trying to sort out all the documentation for the insurance now Pam echoing you as always, you say it so well
Hi Sue, I love this card and remember it from the Daffodil launch. Thank you for the video showing just how you made the trumpets, I hope I can get mine to turn out as well.
Carmen - I hope your headache has gone and you are feeling better. Hoping also that the kid's operation has gone well and he will be back in the office with you again soon.
the card is delightful. I love daffodils and of course this card is gorgeous. It would make a few occasions and I think a very delightful Get Well card.
A gorgeous basket of golden daffodils. So lovely and sweet. Your little daffies just speak to me. I continue to add more and more daffodils to my gardens each year. So glad the deer don't like to eat them like they do the tulips. Thank you for the helpful video on making these little beauties.
Thanks Sue. My grandmother was always happy to see the first daffodil bloom. To her it was a sign winter was over. Lovely card that brings back happy memories. Linda
Hi Sue lovely card of course being Welsh I love daffodils Pat L what a shame you will have to miss your trip to Barbados but as you say you have to put your hubby first I hope his recovery goes well June how lovely to be crafting with your Grand Daughter such precious memories for both of you I love crafting with my Grand Daughters too Sending good wishes to all
Hello Sue, A really pretty Spring card! I have the basket which I have cut more times than I care to remember as the children used them in the Easter cards/ pages. They cut beautifully! I don't have the daffodils but eggs at Easter are good or any other flowers . Thank you. There is nothing more satisfying than crafting with grandchildren and other children! They are so enthusiastic and it's lovely to see there face when they have made something of which they are proud! So June - I know what you mean . Pat L - I'm sorry you are missing out on a lovely trip but as you so rightly say your husband's health and care come first! It's these marriage vows again! When we took them we meant them and we are fortunate to still have each other. Thanks Pam for keeping us up to date with everything! Carmen - praying that today went well for the Kid! Love to everyone, Myra xxx
Hi Sue, Love this card, it is a 'Happy Card' well I think so. Because when I see the daffodils starting to boom that's how I feel! Hope you have had a good day. Love Brenda xxx
Clean, simple and fresh, as Izzy said. Love the colors, the embossed background and the Daffodils as well. I have the basket and the new set is on the long-long wish list. I will watch the video later.
Pam, Elaine, Frances, Myra – Thank you for your prayers ...The Kid was scheduled for 9AM.We didn’t have any news until 3PM when he texted to his boss that the doctors postponed the procedure for tomorrow. One of the surgeons had another surgery that took longer than expected and by the end of that surgery he was too tired to do another one. This is understandable but what we didn’t understand why nobody notify the Kid sooner. He was there waiting for so many hours. I have no words. You can imagine how he feels. I feel so sorry for him. June – The cards that you made together with your grand-daughter will become very happy memories for both of you. France – My headache is on and off. I tried to ignore it because I was too busy at work. Hope to be able to relax now. Tomorrow will be another crazy day.
Hugs to you all, including to our poorly and missing friends, Still a newbie to Craft / Not longer the newest, or the only Canadian Wilsonette Carmen
Lovely card Sue, beautiful. daffodils are always so cheerful.
ReplyDeleteCarmen, prayers said for the Kid, hope all goes well today with his op. You all must be so worried for him. You are like his family.
Crewe Trish, good news for your brother to continue treatment, hope it helps. Are you feeling any better.
Pat, remember beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Maureen in a nurses uniform, err don't think so, watch out Mr L. Poor George, what has he to put up with lol. Elaine, behave yourself.
Lynda, nice to see you back, hope you are feeling better, migraine is so debilitating.
Yvonne, sorry you are still struggling, I wish I could wave a magic wand and make you all better.
June, glad the craft day went well. Sounded like good fun.
Elaine, I know Andrew will bounce back, he is a strong willed man and so determined.
Hugs to all,especially our poorly and missing friends, we need you well and back.

Myra, I have circled in red ink yesterday's date on my calendar. The date that your flabber has been ghasted is truly a date to remember ha ha.

ReplyDeleteThank you for the great video on how to create this wonderful card, daffodils are so lovely they lift your heart and this would make a beautiful get well card so I'd like to virtually send it to all our poorly friends
Elaine and Maureen you are awful but I like you, thanks for the laugh. I was due to go to Barbados to the World Flower Show in a couple of weeks but have had to cancel, hubby is more important. Trying to sort out all the documentation for the insurance now
Pam echoing you as always, you say it so well
Sending love and hugs to everyone

Hi Sue, I love this card and remember it from the Daffodil launch. Thank you for the video showing just how you made the trumpets, I hope I can get mine to turn out as well.
ReplyDeleteCarmen - I hope your headache has gone and you are feeling better. Hoping also that the kid's operation has gone well and he will be back in the office with you again soon.

Beautiful card Sue. A favourite spring flower for me. Xx
ReplyDeleteA gorgeous basket of golden daffodils. So lovely and sweet. Your little daffies just speak to me. I continue to add more and more daffodils to my gardens each year. So glad the deer don't like to eat them like they do the tulips. Thank you for the helpful video on making these little beauties.
ReplyDeleteLovely card, the daffodils are so pretty.

Hi sue.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty reminds me of spring too x
Such a beautiful card Sue!! That sentiment is gorgeous!! I love the basket of daffodils.
ReplyDeletelove this. fab easter card, hugs xx
ReplyDeleteHello Sue,
ReplyDeleteA really pretty Spring card! I have the basket which I have cut more times than I care to remember as the children used them in the Easter cards/ pages. They cut beautifully! I don't have the daffodils but eggs at Easter are good or any other flowers . Thank you.
There is nothing more satisfying than crafting with grandchildren and other children! They are so enthusiastic and it's lovely to see there face when they have made something of which they are proud! So June - I know what you mean .
Pat L - I'm sorry you are missing out on a lovely trip but as you so rightly say your husband's health and care come first! It's these marriage vows again! When we took them we meant them and we are fortunate to still have each other.
Thanks Pam for keeping us up to date with everything!
Carmen - praying that today went well for the Kid!
Love to everyone,
Myra xxx
PS! Their face!!! Not there face!! Oh dear! X

Hi Sue,
ReplyDeleteLove this card, it is a 'Happy Card' well I think so.
Because when I see the daffodils starting to boom that's how I feel!
Hope you have had a good day.
Love Brenda xxx
Hi Sue,
ReplyDeleteClean, simple and fresh, as Izzy said. Love the colors, the embossed background and the Daffodils as well. I have the basket and the new set is on the long-long wish list. I will watch the video later.
Pam, Elaine, Frances, Myra – Thank you for your prayers ...The Kid was scheduled for 9AM.We didn’t have any news until 3PM when he texted to his boss that the doctors postponed the procedure for tomorrow. One of the surgeons had another surgery that took longer than expected and by the end of that surgery he was too tired to do another one. This is understandable but what we didn’t understand why nobody notify the Kid sooner. He was there waiting for so many hours. I have no words. You can imagine how he feels. I feel so sorry for him.
June – The cards that you made together with your grand-daughter will become very happy memories for both of you.
France – My headache is on and off. I tried to ignore it because I was too busy at work. Hope to be able to relax now. Tomorrow will be another crazy day.
Hugs to you all, including to our poorly and missing friends,
Still a newbie to Craft / Not longer the newest, or the only Canadian Wilsonette

I love the basket die. I used it for all my Easter gifts. The daffodils look great in it.
