For this weekÂ’s WT439 (stamp or make your own background) I used an old daisy stamp to make my background. A Stamp-a-ma-jig is so helpful to do this. I did a little fussy cutting then coloring one yellow and popping it up. I also dotted the center with yellow Stickles. I stitched the little dragonfly (Traditions Beads) and ribbon onto the card. (10 minutes to thread that needle).
I think I bought the daisy stamp used, and it has no company name one it. The beautiful sentiment is from Cornish Heritage Farms.

Simply beautifully done! I love the black and white theme with the pop of one yellow daisy and the dragonfly and ribbon are just the right finishing touch.

Using a SAMJ, now that's smart! When I do use a smaller stamp for backgrounds I tend to just start randomly, and then wonder why it doesn't look right! Thanks for making such a super sample for Linda's challenge.
