Now todays post...


I bought these Daisy stamps designed by John Lockwood a while back, this is the first card I had made with them. Quite a simple card, I wanted the aperture on the front to show the beautiful stamp on the inside and I think it worked by framing the top aperture with a different colour. I had to cut the aperture out three times, the base card, second layer and top frame using two of the dies from Labels Twenty Six, thankfully I managed to match them all up, its hard to see the second layer as I used White hammer card and pierced round the edge.

I love the tiny bubbles around the Daisy, just right for adding little pearl drops as I have done here in White.

I coloured the Daisies in with Promarkers and Spectrum Noir pens using a lovely bright Yellow, Orange & Green, loved how this went with the Teal colour of the frame.

To finish the card I added some PVA Pearl drops on the front of the card as seen.

Is the Easter break over for you now? some of the children around our way go back on Monday, whilst others have another week off. Janice xx
