Hi there. I'm so glad you stopped by!
Monday sure rolled around again quickly!
These daisies were in my NBUS box and I thought they would work well with the
Color Hues colors of Sage and Pink.
As it would happen, they worked out well to send to a friend who is experiencing
some health difficulties. I hope it cheers her and reminds her of our hope in the Lord.
I inked the stamp with Distress inks and markers and used a damp waterbrush
to blend the ink. I did a little touch up with watercolor pencils after stamping
and added some splatters.
To get the strip of color, I placed some Sweet Poppy stencil tape on the card and
lightly blended some ink between the tape. I probably should have done this step first
but it seemed to work out fine.
Challenges:
Color Hues #89 - Sage and Pink
Darnell's I.D.E.A.S. - Anything Goes Week
NBUS #63 - Never Before Used Schtuff
I am so glad Blogger has straightened out. It was so frustrating last week!

You call them daisies but I see echinacea, Bonnie. Or Coneflowers as they're known and I love them. The inked strip behind them is such a great design feature.
Beautiful card Bonnie. Love the pretty pink daisies and your blended strip behind them, so soft and pretty.
Your blooms are absolutely BEAUTIFUL in the pinks Bonnie, and I love the lightly blended pink in the background too! Once again you've made our challenge colors SHINE and your friend is going to love this card and it's reminder to put our faith in the Lord! Thanks so much for sharing this beauty with us at Color Hues!! Hugs. :0)

Gorgeous card, Bonnie. Your daisies are so delicate and pretty-in-pink. Love the soft strip of sponging and splatters. Lovely card that your friend will cherish. Love, Lolly
Simply Beautiful card for your friend...she will so appreciate your thoughtfulness. Love and Hugs...Nancy
I didn't know Blogger was messing up last week, but I did think it was very quiet around town. I'm glad it stopped, whatever was happening. You showcased your cone flowers so beautifully in pink and sage, Bon, and I love the schplatters and cool stripe you added! Thank you for playing with my I.D.E.A.S. this week and linking again to NBUS! Hugs, Dolly
This is quite beautiful Bonnie. I love that soft wash behind the bloom...I am probably going to have to case this design!
What a wonderful card, Bonnie! I love the sweet flowers, the colors are perfect and the additional blended strip is such a great addition

Oh, so beautiful, Bonnie! Another stamp in my stash I haven't used yet. I love them in pink with this CAS design. Gentle and lovely and so expertly done.
