Cheerful Kitten for Festive Friday Challenge #186
Inquisitive Seagull for SendASmile4Kids - June 2025

Daisy Blossom for Just Add Ink 754 and TGIF 528

Happy Friday.

It's a rare day that I get to create a card for two challenges!  Today I was checking out Cardsfordays challenge list site and was inspired by the Colors at TGIF and the choice of 3 from Just Add Ink.  I mean, whenever have I walked away from a challenge that asks you to use die cuts and flowers :-)!  For the challenge I brought out one of the sets that I got as part of my Jennifer McGuire Crafty box called Daisy Blossom and it's from Memory Box.  It's another set that I wouldn't have bought, but am so glad that it was included in the crafty box!

Here's a sneak peek - and before y'all faint... I'm warning you..... no white on the front of this card!  I think the aliens must have been and beamed me up last night :-)

And here are the challenge badges:

 
 
I loved the idea of the pink, green and black and thought that the pink and green would really pop against a black background - and they really do.  Problem is..... once I had the card assembled I didn't know what to do with the sentiment!  Pink and green would not have shown up.  White would have been too jarring, so I went with a soft gold and added a soft gold hand drawn border in a soft gold, too.
 
I die-cut the flowers and used my inks to blend the colors.  Once they were dry, I adhered them to the card front and the card was complete.
 
Here's my full card:

In real life the black is really dark black and the green and pink pop off the color beautifully.  The design teams at both challenges have some fabulous inspiration for you and I know they would love it if you played along :-)

 

I'll be back tomorrow with my card for SendASmile4Kids, in the meantime, warm hugs and prayers for those of you who need a little lift tonight.

Hugs

Memory Box, Daisy Blossom
