Daisy

I've had some 'crafter's block' 😞😞 recently and was getting a little fed up staring at stamps and being devoid of ideas💡!

I don't know what I would do without Pinterest!! Saw a card like this and thought - "I have that stamp".....

Thinking that I had the stamp was the easy bit - finding it was something else 🙈. But find it I did (and another similar Dahlia one from Indigo Blu - also never seen ink)

I used Picked Raspberry and Wilted Violet direct to the stamp and highlighted the centre with some Nuvo Pearl. The Nuvo was white but the ink underneath reacted with it and I got a pale pink and white mix - which I think looks fine.

I popped a plain white frame over it and mounted it onto the card base and added the sentiment.

Been a nice morning here - blue skies after a heavy frost - one of the better winter days!
Thanks for looking today and for any comment you leave - I really appreciate it. And thank you to the crafter who posted her make on Pinterest!

    What a brilliant stamp and it is great framed in that way, super colours too. Glad I'm not the only who has trouble finding stuff I know I have - but where!!

    Super one Viv.....love it...you don't seem to have crafters block to me you seem to be on a roll! I can believe you when you say it probably took longer to find the stamp than to use it! Been setting up a new computer here so no crafting...!! xx

    This is stunning, lovel it, great colours and love the way you have only shown half the stamp.
    I must admit, when I saw it at first I thought it was a die that I have recently used for a future challenge, very similar to this stamp but I will tell you the tale of the die on my future post, but it makes me wonder if a lotto things are copied off others ideas,
    Weather same here apart from the fact that this morning was bitter cold.

    I spent ages at the weekend looking for a set of pencils I knew I had bought. I found them tonight when I wasn’t looking for them. Love this card with the big bold flower and the frame. Hugs Mrs A.
