Favorite Daisy Bouquet and a Big Thank You

Before we get into my post today, I'd like to say a big thank you for all the prayers, emails, FB notes and actual snail mail cards.   Right now, I'm progressing well with relearning to walk, but I'm fighting quite an infection in my incision.  Scary!  I'm still hoping I can hold my September classes, but time will tell.  You'll be able to keep up with my plans and progress here on my blog.

As I've been recovering from my hip revision surgery, I've spent some of my rest time cruising through our new Holiday Catalog. Wow!  I love it!  I've also gone searching through our Annual Catalog for stamp sets that I could use for Fall cards, as well.  I found a lot!

I don't have any Christmas or Fall to share with you yet (soon, I hope), but I do have a lot of other ideas and inspirations to show you.  For today's post, here's another fun bouquet.  This one was created with our wonderful Daisy Punch.  I used Daffodil Delight and each of our newest In Colors.

I'm not actually keeping these outside, but I thought they'd look cute there for a photo shoot:)

My favorite part of all is the dragonfly.  I cut him from vellum, sponged (Lemon Lime Twist) and embossed it.  Love this added touch!

Come on and sit a while.

Can you tell how I created the centers for my daisies?  I embossed a piece of Crushed Curry CS, using our Oh My Stars embossing folder and then punched out a 'star shape' for each daisy center, using a small circle punch.

This is one of my favorite projects.  It just makes me happy.

The Cutest Little Bows Ever!

I just had to highlight these cute little bows in a tiny frame I had in my 'stash'.  There's one for each of our new In Colors.  They're felt!   

There's a little adhesive spot on the back and it's really strong!  These really add a nice finishing to your projects.

Look closely at my background paper and you can see that it's embossed with one of our new embossing folders.  I love it!

Well, that's a quick post for today.  The bows speak for themselves.
