Shades are fabulous inks, so take a look at them.  The balloons are HappyBday2you from Stamps of Life.  The clouds and sun are stickers from my stash.

 Everything is coming up Daisies!! I chose the beautiful daisy collection for my card today.  I used Framed Daisies, Daisy Swag and Daisy Duo.  All images are stamped with Rich Cocoa Momento Ink on White Cryogen.  They are colored with Copics. I love the new belated greeting.  It was stamped in a pigment ink and embossed with clear embossing powder.  I decided to tear the edges around the frame and distress them with Tim Holtz' Orange Marmalade Distress Ink.  I embossed the orange layer with Cheery Lynn's Fanciful Flowers.  The yellow panel is embossed with Daisies Folder.  The finished size is a 6" square.
