Sultry Daisy
TGIF!! As usual, I am SO GLAD it’s Friday! My favorite day of the week. 
A few days ago, I shared a very simple card, using this daisy from Lizzie Anne’s In the Meadow set. I created this card at the same time, but gave it a totally different look.
I’d been wanting to use more of my Basic Grey Sultry paper, so I flipped through the pad to see what inspired me. I LOVE this larger floral print, so I used that as my inspiration. The cardbase is Prism intense kiwi cardstock which had been run through my Wizard with the long rectangle Spellbinders Nestability die. I placed it on the edge of the cardfront to give the scalloped edge.
The focal image is on cryogen white cardstock, colored with my Copic markers: RV11, RV17, RV34, YG03, W2,W3. I added Lizzie Anne’s Say it in Script sentiment, Paris Dew Drops, and a lotta’ Stickles to the flower centers. The inside of the card is lined with the solid bright pink paper from the Sultry pad, that had been stamped with the solid flowers from the Lizzie set in Adirondack raspberry ink. A large “no tie” bow in this divine May Arts ribbon with some frayed ends finishes off the design. This is a standard A2 sized card (4 1/4 x 5 1/2)
So what do you think? This will be going to my Aunt, so I hope she likes it! Have a fabulous day, and thanks for visiting!

Another fabulous card - love the combination of color, texture, stamping, and BLING. You have a great artistic eye. I would love to know: the finished size? How to make the bow? (I’m guessing it’s woven through two holes punched into the card.)

This might be a really simple question (But I am at work and not thinking clearly) How did you get the Nestability Die to only cut on the one side????
Love the card, it’s GORGEOUS!!!!

This is absolutely beautiful.
A question though, how did you do just the edge with the nest. and not cut the rest of the card…can’t seem to figure that out. hmmmm Thanks for the help.
