First up, appropriately enough, is Yana’s Daisies dies.
The floral image was die cut from white twice and ink blended with pink, yellow, orange and green dye inks. The leaves on the second cutout were cut off and the flower outline was stacked on top of the other one.
Bristol paper was then embossed with the Argyll Plaid embossing folder for the background. The Everyday Sentiments “thanks” was die cut from gold foil paper and its shadow from white. Assembled the card onto a white card base then added clear shimmer to the petals to finish.
The Daisy Shower press plate takes center stage for my second card. Inked the press plate with Wilted Violet distress oxide ink (DOX) then pressed into watercolor paper using the BetterPress Letterpress system.
There is a coordinating stencil set for this press plate, but I don’t have it, so the panel was coloured with Zig Real Brush markers instead.
The Little Hello sentiment was die cut from Bristol paper and its shadow from black. Ombré ink blended the sentiment with Wilted Violet DOX ink and applied clear shimmer to it for some sparkle. Assembled and mounted the card onto a white card base to finish.

Two beautiful cards, Trina. Daisies are one of my favourite flowers so I love these. The first one looks like daisies I have in my garden with the lovely blend of pink and white. The purple on the second one is so vibrant and really makes a gorgeous background.
ReplyDeleteTwo gorgeous daisy cards, Trina - love the layered daisies on card one & the purples on card two!!
ReplyDeleteThe die cut daisies are so pretty and I'm loving that embossed background! The inking on the background with the press plate is so even and beautiful and your coloring is a perfect match! Amazing cards as always, my friend!
