Miss Polly Clown - Tanja

Hi there,

it's Tanja here and I would like to show you this adorable little Clown Card. I colored the image with ZIG Clean Color Real Brush Pens and a damp watercolor brush. I left the background simple to let the image shine.

For more information on the creation of this Card visit my Blog Little Art Cottage.

You'll find Miss Polly Clown and so many other wonderful images including Monthly Specials and Freebies in the A Day for Daisies Shop.

Make sure to join our last Challenge "Anything goes" right here on the ADFD Blog.

Have a day for daisies.

Yours,

Aloha Florals - GDT Aurora Marco

How gorgeous is this version of Aloha Florals from our one of this month's guest designers, Aurora Marco?!?  Her overall coloring and that itsy-bitsy, teeny-weenie polka dotted bikini is positively divine!!  The sentiment is so true, too.  These voluptuous beauties all exude self-confidence and a love of themselves, which is so refreshing. 

Doesn't Aurora's work make you want to rush over to the ADFD shop and color one up yourself?

There are six women in the Aloha Beauties collection.  Each one is uniquely beautiful!  

They were originally introduced in on the AFD Blog in April 2013.

Daisy Bird Bath - Jen Leeflang

We're having such a hot and humid summer here in Durban, South Africa, that I thought I would share with you a cool card that included some water.

The image featured is called Daisy Bird Bath which I coloured using Copic markers and a white gel pen.

The simplicity of the daisies and butterflies were the inspiration to make this a CAS card, and for the sentiment I used.

If you'd like to see more details about my card, please visit my blog.

We''d love to see what projects you have created with the gorgeous A Day for Daisies images - please share them in the Facebook Community group.

Keep Creating!

Lily Perfume Bottle | Cindy Messer

Hello!  Cindy back on the blog today.  I've made a mixed media card using this pretty perfume bottle.  I distressed the edges of the cardstock.  For the background I used some dimensional texture paste and a fun stencil.  For more details please visit me at In Love with Paper.

You can find this beautiful image, Lily Perfume Bottle and many more in the ADFD shop.

Thanks for visiting us at ADFD,

Indigo Lady - Jen Leeflang

I chose to showcase this gorgeous image called Indigo Lady as it perfectly depicts the graciousness, serenity and beauty of a Japanese lady.

The image was coloured using Copic Markers in colours reminiscent of a peacock's plumage,  and a gold and white gel pen to add some detail.

Black and white background paper in a traditional Japanese paper was the perfect way to draw attention to the rich colours of the image, and the gold paper mats, trim, beads and gems echo the opulence of the image.

More pics are available on my blog .

Keep spreading happiness by creating beauty, one A Day for Daisies project at a time!

Lots of love

Jen
