Hello friend

For this card I was inspired by this week's photo over at Color Throwdown.

I used a flower from a Prima set, stamped randomly and colored the flowers. Then I took my new Tim
Holtz stencil and just inked in a few of the white spaces. I added some green splatters, gems and a die cut sentiment I got from Monika a little while back. I also stamped the word friend.

This card is for:
Color Throwdown - #444
TIME OUT Challenges - #84 'Flowers and Friends make life a garden'

      Lovely monochrome card, Pia! Those big, delicate daisies appear to be gently floating in the air, wafting their fragrance for everyone who is willing to inhale! Beautiful card! hugs, de

      Wow Pia, I absolutely love your card! Great job with the stencil, I'm so going to steal this idea and stencil just here and there, very beautiful, shabby look! Great use of these colors too, I found the palette pretty hard. Thanks for joining us at TIME OUT!

      A lovely card Pia, love the colour combo. The random stamping of the daisy makes a great design and I like how you've broken up the white of the background with the feint stencilling and splatterso.
