Daisy Chain
Topic: Backgrounds

Better get your sunglasses, it's going to be BRIGHT today!

Lots of orange and yellow on the over-all daisy patterned waxed paper background. So I just kept going with those colors for the cards and added some unexpected colors for variety.

First up is an irregular striped background that brings in some teal, rust and grey into the mix. The, there's that crazy rabbit AGAIN!. This time I colored his flowers with rusty colored ink and gave the centers some yellow Stickles. The strip at the top is stamped with the same ink and popped up on foam. Then I added some faux stitching to this and the rusty strip of 'ground' at the bottom.


I gave the stripes on this one a more symetrical arrangement and added some greens to the mix. The string of dragonflies are punched from the blocks on a paint sample strip. The sentiment is stamped directly on the card face across all the strips.


For this last card I remembered a pierced cardstock in my stash. I centered the cut design on an orange card base and mounted the remaining bit of daisy chain paper horizontally on top of two layers. I stamped the greeting and then added some stamped daisies on the text strip as well ad inside the cut design. I jazzed these up by coloring them in with orange Stickles.


Now aren't you sorry you didn't get out your sunglasses like I asked?
