You Are an Inspiration - Fab Friday #205

 For the sketch challenge #204 at Fab Friday, I thought I would feature the Flowers and Field DSP, one of the FREE Sale-a-bration offerings with a $60 purchase.



The use of this SAB DSP was inspired by the little white Daisies looking so cheerful on the black back ground.  They were the inspiration for the Daisy embellishments as well.

Following the sketch, on a Thick Whisper White card stock base was added some Just Jade card stock upon which was added an identical piece of the DSP, only the 2 were off set from each other.

To subdue the somewhat over powering and strong colours of the DSP, I added some Vellum on top of it.


The sentiment, from Dragonfly Garden, was embossed with Black embossing powder on a piece of So Saffron card stock and die cut with a Stitched So Sweetly die. It was adhered to the upper right of the card.

Non SU punches were used to make three daisies and their leaves,  Each daisy consists of 1 whisper white punched flower as well as 2 Old Olive leaves and a small So Saffron circle center. 


After adding the Daisies around the sentiment (as well as the bottom left), some Shimmer Crystal Effects was added to provide glitter as well as increased stability.


Supplies Used:
Stamp:  Dragonfly Garden
Ink:  Versa Mark
Papers:  Thick Whisper White, Whisper White, Field and flowers DSP (SAB), Just Jade, So Saffron, Old Olive, Vellum
Accessories: Stitched So Sweetly Die, Black embossing powder, Glimmer Crystal Effects, Dimensionals, 1/4" circle punch, Non SU Punches (daisy, leaves). Dimensionals.

Such pretty daisies - love the layers here! Vellum is so fun to tame some bolder colors! Thanks so much for playing at Fab Friday!

The vellum is a great idea to tone down the paper and it really makes your adorable daisy pop! Love this hint of sparkle in the centers as well. Thanks for sharing at Fab Friday!
