Now, tell me, who wouldn't love to have this gorgeous arrangement full of Gerbera Daisies?? also the can, the tray? I'd take it all, thank you very much! But today, I'll be celebrating those gorgeous Gerbera's by using one of my go-to sets from Uniko!
Today, my attention was drawn to the gorgeous silvery, sage-y leaves in the IB183 photo, too. I used the coordinating Gerbera leaf dies, cut from PTI's Stormy Sky card stock, and stamped the detail layer in SSS white pigment ink. A smattering of my favorite gems from Pinkfresh and my job here is done!
If you haven't read about the new Christmas card option from Inspired By, you better check it out - of course, our Sketch option is also a way to get the creative juices going! I'm on my way there to see which option my teammates have chosen, and to see the Christmas Option IB183C - you'll come, too, won't you?

These are the inks used today, followed by a bit of detail coloring with pencils.
I might have known you'd love everything in this inspiration photo...the greys are glorious with those stunning colorful daisies. And I see you had no trouble recrating it with paper and ink...STUNNING.
