WWC241 - Dawn's Feminine "Anything Goes" Challenge

Hello and welcome!  This week we are making "feminine" cards at the Watercooler Wednesday website and Dawn is our hostess.

I was in need of some Get Well cards and I thought some daisy paper pieced inlays would be "feminine" and fun.  

Recipe:

• I glued some Lawn Fawn "Perfectly Plaid" paper to cardstock and then die cut with Sugar Pea's Element Builder frame.  
• I die cut the daisy from Newton's Nook Flower Trio from both the plaid paper/cardstock and then white card stock.  
• I stamped the sentiment
• I die cut the pink inner flower from a scrap of Yupo paper with alcohol ink. 
• Next I inlaid the white daisy, added the pink layer and then added the center from the background.

Off The Edge Die-Cutting

I had never tried off the edge die-cutting but I am very pleased with the end result.  

I was in the mood to do a puppy card so I chose Mama Elephant's Playful Pups, one of my oldest and most used stamp sets.  I die cut a panel, did my partial die-cutting, then stamped and finally colored with Copic markers.  I liked the CAS look of the panel but wanted to break up some of the white so I used my new Sugar Pea Designs Element Builder to die cut the bottom edge.  I really like that subtle stitched wave.

Make my Monday "B" Challenge - B is for lots of  Brown! I used 5 Shades of Copic Brown on these pups.

Addicted to Stamps "Make Your Mark" I made my mark with lots of brown.

UPDATE:  I am so pleased that this card was a "Top Pick" at the Inkspirational Challenge!
