Cottonberry Creations: A day for Daisies

A day for Daisies

Happy New year to all my friends, followers and Penny Black DT

Just before Christmas I recieved a lovely package from Brenda who runs the Penny Black and More blog like clockwork. I was thrilled to recieve a gorgeous PB stamp, ribbons and a PB designer pad of beautiful papers.
When I spotted this gorgeous turquoise lacy paper in the pad I new I would use it on my first card for the New Year. I had bought some new Nestabillity flower dies too and was itching to use those. I cut all the flowers in white and layered some of them. I added some Crealies leaf die cuts too and formed them into a kind of bouquet to add to the side of my paper.
I stamped and minimally coloured my image with Promarkers. I put it all together on my card and added some gorgeous sparkly gems to the flower centres.
Now to remind followers and friends of the PB blog that it is time for first challenge in 2016 (One for the girls) which runs for the whole month. As usual there are lots of crafty prizes up for grabs and you also have the chance of being a guest designer on the blog for a month. Pop over to the blog to check all the rules and details of this months challenge and all the beautiful projects made by the DT.

I have entered my card into the blog challenges listed below.
