Purple fresh Daisies

Hi, I've been sending Thinking of You cards lately, so I need to make some more. I also seem to be using purple a lot! If you asked me what my favourite colour was, I'd say blue!! It's funny how the need to use some colours just takes over, or maybe that's just with me LOL!!


I'm going to enter this card into the sketch challenge at Less is More. I struggle with a lot of sketches, but this one looked great, so versatile.

Here is the sketch. 


I'm also going to put another entry into the challenge at Addicted to CAS, where the code word is Flower. There's still time to enter. The DT have some fabulous creations for inspiration.

Materials used: Simon Says Stramp Fresh Daisies die; Stampin Up Fancy Fan embossing folder; twinkling H2Os; MFT labels die; Sentiment sticker  from stash.

Thanks for visiting :)

    Hi Cath

    This is one beautiful card.

    Your flower is gorgeous and a lovely colour!

    Thank for reminding me that I need to do a couple of "thinking of you" cards.

    Have a good day.

    Love Jules xx

    Another lovely. Like the EF with this flower stem. I think there is a Memory Box die like this (maybe your Simon Says stamp goes with it...I don't have the stamp). Love your H20 coloring too...that medium challenges me. I don't do it well. You did it beautifully. On the Thinking of you, that sentiment comes in handy for lots of things, doesn't it? Looks perfect on this card. TFS
