I was needing a card to send to a friend that has been having some health issues and just wanted her to know that my family and I are thinking of her.
So I decided on using the Big Daisy Embossing folder. It was perfect because years ago she painted me a daisy on canvas and gave it to me for Christmas.
Tried doing some water coloring. Umm, not the best, but went with it anyway. Added hello from a die and used a S.U. border punch.
Cardstocks that I used are- Whisper White, Strathmore Bristol - for water coloring, Yo Yo Yellow, Basic Black
Inks- Marina Mist, YoYo Yellow, Mellow Moss, Old Olive and Basic Black
Several of us in my family will be signing this. I'm sure she will love knowing that we are all thinking of her.
Again, thank you for stopping by. Hope you have a super week and stay crafty my friends.

This such a pretty card. I'm sure your friend will love it, especially since she gave you a painting with a Daisy on it. How sweet is that? So glad you had time to spent with your Mom. I miss my Mom. She passed in 2004 and life is never the same. I thought your water coloring was pretty good! Don't sell yourself short! Thanks for visiting my blog and the lovely comments. Take care.
