Itâs my pleasure to host the Inspiration Challenge (IC809) this week & weâre headed to a blog called Sumcoco. They also have a lovely & very crafty Pinterest Board where I found THIS picture.
For my daisies card, I had already stamped & colored my daisies & leaves as a group, so I fussy cut them then added them to a cutaway rectangle I die cut. Then I did a version of the eclipse technique w/ the YOU die. I die cut it directly out of the flower & white area, then added it on top of the shadow portion of the die (cut out of white). I also die cut 3 more of the YOU part to stack under the flower version to give it a little dimension. Also notice that I put back the insert pieces of the YOU that are usually discarded. I like that the white shadow die cut added a bit of separation between the flower & the die cut word. For the bg, I used a repeating brick wall stencil & the pink & green inks to make it.
Thanks so much for looking. It's on my blog w/ some extra step pics & Copic colors:The Write Stuff

Beautiful, Julie. The flowers against the brick wall are gorgeous. I love your eclipse technique for the sentiment and how you put the pieces back in the cut outs.
