Dainty Daisies.

Hello Followers, Friends and Visitors,

Hope you  all had a good weekend and are well and happy.   If not here's a little (((hug)) from me.   Tonight I would like to share a card with you which I made for Sue and Harvey of Imagination Craft's in April this year.     I  have used their new Mixed Media Spray Inks and of course their beautiful Sparkle Medium.

 
Die-cut four corners using the green card and glue one in each corner of the white base card.   Matt a square of green card onto the base card.

   
Add some shaving foam to a plastic container and spray a few sprays of the coloured inks onto the foam.   Move the colours around the surface of the foam, using a cocktail stick or similar item.  Lay a piece of white card on top of the foam pressing gently for a few seconds, then lift the card away.   Remove the excess foam using the metal spatula.   The pattern should have transferred to the card.

  

When dry, lay the stencil on top of the card and spread the pink Sparkle Medium over the flower heads and the spearmint  over the leaves and stems.   Remove the stencil and leave the image to dry.


Trim this to size and fix to the base card, leaving a border of green showing.   Lastly, glue three green gems to the top right of the card.



That's this card finished.   The shaving foam technique is such fun to do as you never get the same pattern twice, I do hope  you give it a try.   Not only do you achieve a lovely background, your card smells lovely too lol!!    Cheerio for now and I will be back soon.

                                                                 Love and rainbows,

                                                                    Happy Crafting,

                                                                   Hugs   Jennifer xx.
