I love all colors of daisy...but the yellow daisy jump to my head when I was creating. I set out to create my own paper with Altenew Metallic Shimmer Ink Spray (all linked  at the end of this post)

For the daisies: Warm Sunshine and Orange Cream
For the leaves: Forest Glades, Frayed Leaf, Mountain Mist and Lagoon

To keep the colors light, I also spray a few spritz of water and Iridescent Spray ( this one is often overlooked, but it is a MUST if you like to add SHINE!). You can use it on ANY of your stamped images or project.... sorry that I digress....

Last but not least, the Trellis Stencil is a stencil that gives you super crafting power! The sentiment from Geometric Elements "thank you" sits nicely within the stems. LOVE that!
I hope that you enjoy today's post. I have A FEW MORE of Craft-a-Flower Daisy to share tomorrow! 😀
