Mother's Daisy Chain

Hello my crafty friends!

 I'm here to share 

a Candle with you, that I made for

 

Diane has AMAZING Digital sets for all occasions.

Her Mother's Day sets were beautiful, so I made a mother's day gift for my mom. 

I used Heart of Daisies and Mother's Garden of Wishes Sentiment and Image set. 

Here's the back of the candle:

I printed the images onto tissue paper and heat set onto my candle. I finished it off with a Daisy Ribbon from Michael's; then added some liquid pearls into the centers. 

The Daisies on the Front image have Yellow Stickles on the Centers- love the dimension and sparkle they add.

Sweet Baby Girl

Hello my lovelies!

 I'm here to share 

my card with you for

 

My cousin just had a beautiful Baby Girl, so I used  Bitty Baby Girl Vintage Set. 

The images in this set are just GORGEOUS!!

I kept with the soft colors of the image with CS from DSWV. Little Baby Shoes Die is from Michael's. Lace, Pear and flowers are from my stash. 

I got the sentiment from a garage sale, so I don't have the name. :( But its stamped in Memento's Dew Drop Potter's Clay. 

I used the same CS in the inside and stamped "Twinkle Poem" from Stampendous . Such a sweet sentiment.
