When I started thinking of what I wanted to do for this set, I consulted google, and the most beautiful image of some white African Daisies with a blue, pink, and purple center came up. So that's what I set out to create.


I used the Craft-A-Flower: African Daisy dies to cut out all the parts several times from some Neenah white cardstock. I then used some Tide Blue, Rubellite, and Andromeda inks with Mini Blending Brushes to color the centers. To make it easier I should have


I adhered the pieces all together and layer them out onto a white card base and decided where I wanted a sentiment.


I added a sentiment from the Pant-A-Flower: Camellia set with Obsidian Black Ink and stamped a sub-sentiment on another strip and adhered that to the card.


There was a smaller flower which I decided not to use. But one of the pieces, if used twice, looked like a butterfly to me, so I blended some ink on them and made a butterfly with it. Adhered it to the card and added details with a Fine Liner Pen.


Thank for joining.
