This ended up being a 5x7 inch card, but the image panel would fit on an A2 size card if you didn't want to go for a larger size card, this will be going to a friend at church so I will be hand delivering it.
Here is another view of it! I sponged some inks through the background die and shaded around the image also!
Stampendous -- Daisy Thanks, colored w/pencils
Taylored Expressions -- Designer mini tags die, Many minis occasions sentiment stamp
Spellbinders -- Labels 8 and Exquisite Labels 11 dies
Flower stickers
Distress inks -- peeled paint and scattered straw
Hope you have a wonderful weekend!!
Thanks so much for stopping by,
Connie

Beautiful daisies, I love the non traditional colors. I have painted daisies in my gardens which are pink! :) Beautiful card! Love that sweet little ladybug too....I think I may own that stamp set.....thanks for the inspiration!
Hi, Connie! I love 5x7 cards, and basically, that's what I make. Sometimes it is a bit of a chore fitting the dies into A2 size cards. This one is lovely! The shading in your daisies' petal tips is beautiful! I love that you could keep the green in the lines of the stems, LOL - THAT I would never be able to do LOL Your background die cut is very dainty and delicate - a perfect accompaniment for the daisies! Beautiful card! hugs, de
the coloring is beautiful!!! they look like sunflowers and i love sunflowers!!!!
I actually like Black Eyed Susans better than daisies, so the coloring on this card works great for me. Love the centers and how you made them look so dimensional. Makes me want to take out my colored pencils and try mineral spirits with them.
Wow, lovely card, Connie, the colours work, here is Oz we have all sorts of coloured daisies, they're commonly called African Daisies and I have a gorgeous burgundy and gold Daisy, so there you are, yours are really grand! Love the elements to complement it too,
Thanks so much for the inspiration,

Gorgeous card card Connie and love the colours you have chosen. 7" x 5"cards are very popular here in the UK and one of my favourites to make along with 6" square!

I think this is lovely and I do like the choice of colour used ...
All the best Jan
It's fun to get those pencils out now and then, and you did a beautiful job with yours! Your daisies look like Black Eyed Susans, so they seem realistic to me. Also there is such a thing as "bold painted daisies" and they can be lots of different bright colors. So go for it! I just love how this turned out with the scrolly background die. Pretty!
What a delight to be here, you always put a smile on my face and lift up my spirits, I'm so very grateful to you for this ... and let me say that your daisies are so wonderful, dearie !!!
Hope you had a wonderful Mother's Day, my lovely Connie, I wish you a most wonderful new week ahead, sending much love and blessings of Joy to you

I LOVE your daisies! Such a beautiful card, Connie!
Oh, how pretty Connie. Love the sunflower images... and the coloring. I have mineral blending solution too, but I haven't used it in ages.
