Just Us Girls #740 - Mood Board Challenge

I love the mood board Lisa picked for us at Just Us Girls.

Daisies are my favorite flower so I had to have them on my card.


I used the blackout technique on Altenew's Daisies embossing folder by inking the flowers on the debossed side and running a black ink pad over the entire panel to color the raised areas.   EZPS and so dramatic.  The sentiment is from Honey Bee from their Hooked on You set. 

If you need inspiration beyond the mood board, please check out the Design Team's cards and the one by our guest Bonnie Klass.  They have some fabulous ones for you to see.  And I hope we see you in the gallery.

Dramatic and gorgeous, Bobby! What a fabulous way to showcase your pretty daisies. I've not tried the blackout technique yet...one of these days, perhaps...

You definitely nailed that technique with this gorgeous daisy card! Those flowers are so pretty and paired with the perfect sentiment since I think daisies remind me of pretty sunshiny days.
