This is my card for today's Featured Stamper Challenge - to CASE Dara. Dara's gallery is full of beautiful cards! It was hard to choose, but in the end, I selected one she named "NC Grace" because our mutual NC friend, Grace (scrappigramma2) inspired her to pick up the wonderful daffodil stamp she used when they met to shop: NC Grace by Dara at Splitcoaststampers
I kept the daffodil theme and the basic layout, but changed:
-the colors
-omitted the DP
-different daffodil stamp
-created a brayered lake scene (I think Grace lives on a lake!)
-omitted the spotlighted bees
I used a combination of brayering, sponging and direct-to-paper inking for my scene (Michelle Zindorf tutorial).
Thanks, Beth, for the great choice of FS and congratulations, Dara, on being Featured Stamper this week! Enjoy!
