I do adore summer themed cards and this is no exception. Don’t these fresh and clean white daisies with the gray and yellow color palette just scream summer?
My card came together rather quickly and that is also a plus for summer crafting when time is short. My card base is a 5-1/2″ square and I added some layers of yellow, white and gray to frame my sentiment. I cut my sentiment twice, once in dark gray and once in a lighter gray polka dot design paper and layered them to create a shadow effect. After layering the two pieces, I adhered the sentiment to the center of my card. My flowers are simply three layers of the smallest daisy with the petals curved slightly up and layered together. The center is a yellow 1omm resin flatback bead. I created a bed of greenery under my sentiment and added the flowers on top of that.

I finished off my card with a pretty plaid bi-color bow made on my Bow-it-All V3.0 using 5/8″ Yellow and Gray Plaid Ribbon. Plaid is a perfect ribbon for summer themed projects.

What a fun hop! I’m getting in the mood for summer:) Your card is so fresh and pretty…love those daisies. Life IS good!
I love the colors of your card, so pretty and different.
These CL daisies are the most life-looking of all the ones on the market with their little indentations on the ends of the petals. I like how you cut out the Life is Good with the dotted paper and layered it for a shadow effect. These colors are so pretty together. Beautiful card Bonnie.
Bonnie, this is a really great card. I love the layout and papers you used and your daisies are a really nice added element! Thanks for sharing!

This is so gorgeous! I want those shasta daisies. They look so pretty on your card and I also love that you used gingham ribbons. That is a great big sentiment as well.
Gorgeous colours and I love those daisies. Hugz
Oh wow, beautiful! ?
Pretty color combo! Love those gorgeous Shasta Daisies! I have them growing in my backyard… a summer favorite!

Great card! Thank you for joining us here at Word Art Wednesday. We hope you will link more projects with us soon. Leaving you with the inspiration of the scripture in II Thessalonians 3:3 (KJV) ” But the Lord is faithful, who shall stablish you, and keep you from evil.” God bless!
