Hello Crafting Buddies, This evening I felt inspired to listen to some soothing music and to work on a craft, my project is - "Happy Day Flowers" This is a stamped image from Stampendous, and one I found at a local flea market. These reminded me of Coneflowers that used to grow in my summer garden. I wanted to give them a "wash" of color using a water brush and water color pencils and Distress Crayons ~ I think it turned out lovely. I then used some netting from a vintage wedding dress and tied with a soft green trim, with the words stamped: Happy Day. The butterfly is made of wood, this was ordered online. The green paper background is from my stash. While the colors of the petals remind me of Autumn or late Summer, I wanted to give my card the feel of a pretty Summer garden. The words are stamped, with a light "wash" of color in the background.
Thank you for stopping by ~ please leave a comment, it will inspire me to create more cards. Hugs, Mary ♥♥
