The Flower Challenge #102

It's May and time for another fun challenge at The Flower Challenge.  We want you to add spots or stripes to your card along with flowers.

My love of daisies inspired this card made with Altenew's Fresh Flowers.  Some Lost Shadow DI was added to the white petals, while the other flowers were cut from yellow and Fossilized Amber used for shading.  All the flowers are arranged on striped paper from my stash and a BetterPress sentiment was added.

We'd love to see your spotted or striped cards in our gallery.  For inspiration, please check out what the Design Team has made.

Color Hues #104 and NBUS #71

I thought I'd try out a new die set from Altenew called Fresh Flowers for the challenge at Color Hues where my friend Bonnie (their newest team member) has chosen Coral and Yellow.  

I picked out PTI Melon Berry and an unidentified yellow cardstock and added dimension to the flower centers with a darker shade of ink.  The leaves are cut from PTI Soft Stone and the background embossing is an Altenew folder called Always Sunshine. I really like this set and can see making the flowers in a variety of colors. 

Since this is the first showing of this set I'm also sending my card to Darnell's NBUS challenge. 

Thanks for dropping by.
