Low Mojo? Try These Easy Card Desings with Altenew Oxeye Daisy

Here’s an idea using the new Built-A-Garden: Oxeye Daisy by Altenew to spark creativity on days when our mojo feels low.

This beautiful set is included in the Altenew March 2025 release, and all the supplies are available at Simon Says Stamp here.

Altenew Build A Garden Oxeye Daisy Set

Built-A-Garden: Oxeye Daisy includes a stamp set with a large floral cluster and 9 sentiments, a pack of 5 coordinating colouring stencils, and 11 pieces die set.

These designs are perfect for those days when your mojo is a little low—they’ll help you get back into the creative groove!

I’ve also incorporated some of the new Altenew Ink colours—We now have 16 stunning shades ranging from warm yellows, oranges, and browns to calming blues.

The Process

These cards are A2/C6 side-fold cards, and I used the same supplies to create two card variations.

• The image and sentiments are from Built-A-Garden: Oxeye Daisy (stamp set, stencils, and dies).
• I used a die from the Picture Frame Die Set to add a decorative frame to the layered card.

For colouring the flowers, I used a mix of the following inks:

• Orange Sorbet, Apricot Frost, and Choco Hazelnut Inks (from the Desert Dreams Fresh Dye Round Inks bundle)
• Peachy Keen, Mandarin Burst, and Red Jasper (from the Tropical Tango Fresh Dye Round Inks bundle)

For the leaves, I used Olive and Moss Inks. For the backgrounds, I used Olive Fresh Ink and Blueberry (from the Marine Life Fresh Dye Round Ink bundle).

Keep it Simple

For the card above, I used a die from the Picture Frame die set to cut a mask from a scrap piece of cardstock.

• First, I used the mask to stencil a rectangle in the centre of the card base using Blueberry Ink.
• Then, I splattered black ink over the stencilled area, keeping the mask in place.
• Next, I stamped the sentiment using Obsidian Pigment Ink.
• Finally, using Instant Dimension Foam, I adhered the die-cut flower over the centre of the stencilled area.

Note: For this card, I chose not to use the 3rd and 4th layers of the stencil that add details to the images. I zlike the softer look and feel.

Do Little Variations

For these cards, I used Lemon Ice, Mid Yellow, Lemonade Stand, and Raw Amber Inks from the Citrus Punch Fresh Dye Round Inks Bundle.

To add some accents, I applied Red Jasper Ink over the third layer of the stencil.

For the leaves, I used Lemon Ice Ink and mixed Mild Yellow and Ride the Waves inks to create a darker green shade.
