Daisies

Hannah is having a card drive for soldiers, making Mother's Day cards for them to send back home. I love blue and yellow together, and I think this would make a good Mother's Day card. The blue comes from blue embossing powder over white cardstock, then I just had to color in a few of the flowers in yellow and add some pearl centers to some of the flowers.

Supplies: CG105 Silhouette Flowers, CL307 Mini Messages, white and yellow cardstock, VersaMark and Mustard Seed distress inks,green marker for stems, a la mode sky blue embossing powder, Martha Stewart pansy border punch, gold and white pearls, embroidery floss
