Love...

Hi All! Happy Wednesday to you!  Hope you're having a Fabulous week so far!  Mine's been a bit busy, but a pretty good one so far... Today I thought I would share my latest creation with you and join in a couple of challenges just for fun.. 8-)

So, I chose to play along with Impression Obsession's Anything I/O Challenge and also thought I would play along with the Fabulous Ladies of CR84FN and their latest Color Challenge #34. What Beautiful colors they gave us to play with this time! 8-)


I stamped my Sweet Impression Obsession Daisy onto Flourishes Classic White with Memento Rich Cocoa and colored it up with my Trusty Copics. I cut out and layered my Daisy with the help of my Classic Circles and Floral Doilies Nesties sets.  I shaded my image with a touch of Antique Linen Distress Ink while my die was still in place and then popped my matted Daisy up with a few dimensionals.  For my Mats and BG layers I chose a combination of kraft CS from my stash and some soft, pretty dp's from My Minds Eye's All Girl Stack. I added a bit of contrast to emphasize the two different shades of pink for the CR84FN challenge using my I/O Harlequin CAC and MS Pink Geranium pigment ink.  To finish it all up, I stamped my I/O sentiment directly onto my BG with Memento Rich Cocoa, added a fun MS punched border, two different shades of pink ribbon, a cute little button, bit of hemp twine and a vintage brad to top it all off. 

Hope you all have a Terrific Day & Thanks so much for dropping in! 8-)
Thanks for stopping by!
