Get Well Daisies

HAPPY FRIDAY!

I'm so glad for the weekend to be here.  This is Robin and I have a Get Well card for you today.

For this card I used "Get Well Daisy (E700) and "Daisy Border (G403)".  I stamped them with Versamark and then embossed with gold.  I thought it would look pretty and a nice change from black.  They were then colored with Copics.  I did a fussy cut on the sentiment and popped it up.  I used the the other stamp on the border and then distressed with blue.  

I'd also like to remind you of the May Challenge here at Great Impressions.  The challenge is "Feminine" and the prize is perfect for your upcoming Father's Day card.

You still have a few more days to enter.  I would love to see your projects this month!

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!

Hugs,

Robin

April Challenge Reminder

Have you found some time to make an

 April Showers Bring May Flowers Themed Project 

and enter it in the Great Impressions April Challenge?

 
The lucky winner will be receiving this adorable stamp:

Here's the card I made using the Great Impressions 

Daisy Border Rubber Stamp (G403)

and 

April Showers Rubber Stamp (D387).

 

Just because a stamp is a border stamp, doesn't mean you can't use it for other purposes.  Here I used the stamp as the flower border at the bottom of the card  (heat embossed in gold, watercolored and fussy cut) and also as the umbrella pattern (stamped twice, watercolored, and heat embossed with clear embossing powder to give it a shiny vinyl look).


I started out making a yellow umbrella, then a pink umbrella, then a pale blue umbrella, and finally decided on the blue umbrella above. 
What do you think?  Did I choose correctly? Would anyone like a leftover umbrella?

Here's a tip to prevent your adhesive from showing when working with velum.  
First, attach any items that will be on top of the velum.  

Turn it over and place your adhesive on the velum behind those items.  When you glue the velum down whatever adhesive you used will be hidden.

We look forward to seeing your projects for the 

April Great Impressions Stamps Blog Challenge.

You have until the end of the month to enter.
