sweet daisy...

Poor daisy has been sitting neglected so so long thought it about time she saw ink again !! she is my fave ever sugar nellie i love these old ones by elisabeth bell such a shame she doesnt design for them anymore . I wanted a soft dreamy look for this one so kept the colours pale ,i painted the edges of the papers with white paint and a bit of tims crackle paint to soften it as well and added my new favourite thing ...cheesecloth !!

I totally agree about the image, one of my faves too, and I love the cheesecloth, I attempted it, but didn't like the result, I'll wait for a softer card, this is scrumptious!!!!
