The Heart Desires #4 and Inspired by All the Little Things #25

I got the chance to make a couple of cards yesterday.  I don't know why these particular challenges caught my eye but I felt compelled to make cards for them.  The first one is for The Heart Desires.

I was inspired by the sunflowers in the photo and turned the daisy stamp by Altenew into one.  Distress Inks were my color of choice and I had to throw in a few splatters.  I wasn't sure I liked them at first but they're growing on me.


ETA: This card won the challenge at The Heart Desires.

Florals seem to be one of my favorite cards to make and so to follow the sunflower we have a mum, inspired by this gorgeous photo of one at Inspired by All the Little Things.


The flower from Tim Holtz was embossed in gold and colored with DIs.

I'm so glad you dropped by.  I hope your week is going well.

These are both lovely- I love the way you turned that daisy into a sunflower- I rather like it as a sunflower even more! Excellent use of both inspirations- so glad you could play along with THD!
