This handmade card uses the retiform technique and the Cheerful Daisies stamp set in soft Boho Blue Stampin’ Up colours.
Inspired by Mitosu Crafts, and my previous post, I created a unique card using this fun masking technique and one of my favourite Stampin’ Up retiring products.
These retiring items will not be restocked—shop now so you don’t miss out!
What is the Retiform Technique?
The retiform technique uses masking and ink blending to build geometric zones for stamped images.
Also called the grid technique, it’s perfect for creating unique, eye-catching card backgrounds.
To keep my design clean, I used just the Cheerful Daisies stamp set.
Why I Love the Cheerful Daisies Stamp Set and Dies
The Cheerful Daisies stamp set features two-step stamping for layered flowers with rich texture and dimension. Mix and match the petals, centres, and leaves to create custom floral arrangements.
It includes versatile sentiments for birthday, thanks, thinking of you, sorry cards.
Add Dimension with Cheerful Daisies Dies
Pair the stamp set with Cheerful Dsisies Dies to cut out detailed flowers and sentiment labels.
This combo makes it easy to add layers and focal points to your card designs.
Boho Blue—The Perfect In Colour Choice
Boho Blue is a gentle, grey-toned blue. It’s calming and pairs well with other Stampin’ Up In Colours.
Try these beautiful colour combinations:
Boho Blue, Soft Sea Foam, Old Olive
Boho Blue, Gray Granite, Shy Shamrock
Boho Blue, Flirty Flamingo, Pebbled Path
(Pebbled Path is also retiring soon!)
Cheerful Daisies Card Finishing Touches
After creating the retiform technique background, I added a daisy from the Cheerful Daisies stamp set as a focal point.
I die cut sprigs and leaves in Boho Blue and the daisy in Basic White.
The flower centre is stamped in Boho Blue and die cut.
More Ideas with the Retiform Technique
I shared a previous retiform card using the Grow With Love stamp set and Soft Sea Foam.
This technique works with many stamp sets but shines with floral themes like Cheerful Daisies.
I hope this inspires your next card project! Don’t wait to order the Cheerful Daisies stamp set and other retiring Stampin’ Up products.
