Daisies for the Wishes

 Welcome, Friends!

Anybody out there scorching as much as me?  Ha!  A hundred degree temps and plenty of wildfire smoke throughout WA, OR and ID have us wishing for Fall!  I pray that anyone else in the same situation has air-conditioned comfort and breathing relief, along with safety soon.

One would think that today's card came together pretty quickly, but that isn't how my brain works!  Quite a few indecisions along the way make these take way longer than the ordinary person, but I just do what I'm told...

Stamped and colored with a light Copic gray for the center and depth on the "folds", plus Wink of Stella for shine, then masked so I could ink blend the rest of the panel.  It was then cut with an old large rotary cutter that came with an additional scoring wheel and a wavy wheel, which was used.  A secondary, complimentary panel was added and everything placed on a square 5.5" card.  Hindsight, I was given the thought that if I had made this 4.25" square I could mail it in a standard envelope - doh!  Lesson learned, but it is winging it's way to the Birthday girl now.

My close-up was supposed to show the glimmer in the center but it did not...  This is much prettier IRL.

An NBUS stamp (sorry, this had to stay hidden until after your early close), a sketch (sorry, another one missed) and so I came up with sending this to Darnell's IDEAs calendar for Anything Goes and Triple B for the patriotic colors and blooms.

 

 

Supplies:

   UN - Daisy, Defined stamp (NBUS)

Thanks for the visit!  I hope your day is amazing.

Hugs,
