I just love all of the blue! The overall design is incredibly balanced and eye catching, right down to the pretty ribbon and gem embellishments.Here is my take. I just had to create something blue and with a circular element:
I began by die cutting the oval using a Spellbinders die. Next I used the die as a stencil and added a light layer of Wild Honey Distress ink to the oval. I stamped the daisy image twice, once onto the oval and another onto a separate piece of white cardstock. I colored the image with Copics, cut it out, and layered it onto the oval using dimensional adhesive. The background was created by applying Broken China Distress Ink to white cardstock and then stamping with a Penny Black background stamp. Sentiment by Penny Black, 3380D Feel Better.Oh, those pretty daisies are from this set from Penny Black: 30-031 Flower Gallery. I'm creating a mini challenge for myself this week to use this particular set on every card.
PS- I'll be back later today with a winner from last Friday's giveaway. :) Thanks for your patience!
Adorable cards, both from Elizabeth and yourself Jill ;)
