TodayÂ’s limited supply challenge was to create a card using die cuts. We could use any type of die cutting machine and punches were also included. We were to only use stamps for creating a background or the sentiment.
My 4 year old son picked some daisies for me this past Sunday and that inspired me to create this card. I have a picture of my card with the flowers on my blog if anyone would like to see them. (I
posted the link below) Daisies are my favorite flowers!
I used my Plantin SchoolBook cartridge for cutting out the daisies and my 1/4" circle punch for the center of the flowers.
I used my cuttlebug and Argyle Cuttlebug embossing folder for my background. To create my background I embossed only the upper and lower half and then I added two score lines (one above and one below) my black background paper.
My sentiment is from SU's Warm Words and my ribbon is from Offray.

How sweet that you got the daisies from your child!! (When my DS was 3, he picked the neighbor's prize tulips because they were RED!) This card is wonderful......CAS...... and the cb bg with it is just perfect! Great job!!
