When I first looked at the Daffodil Dies, I was completely overwhelmed by the numbers of “pieces” in the die set. But, not to the point that it kept me from buying it. LOL! The Daffodil Dies are part of the Daffodil Daydream Bundle. It consists of two large dies that die cut the large stamps in Daffodil Daydreams. The rest of the dies are the pieces and parts that make beautiful daffodils for your paper crafting! Watch my video below to see just how to use the Daffodil Dies.

The card below is the same measurements as the one in the video. Instead of using Very Vanilla Card Stock I used Basic White. I chose to use a piece of Daffodil Afternoon Designer Series Paper in place of the embossed layer of cardstock. The 2″ x 5 1/4″ strip to the front of the card is Basic White stenciled with a Decorative Mask using Mint Macaroon with a blender brush.
