Milton with Daisy - Hope

Hi everyone, Kelli here!  Yesterday Dana showed you her adorable Milton with Teddy card and today I want to share my Milton with Daisy card with you!  I wanted to make a card that wasn't really for any special occasion, but more of a 'pick-me-up'.  This is a 4 1/4" x 4 1/4" card, which is my favorite size to make, because it's square, but will still fit into a standard A2 envelope so you don't have to pay any extra postage.

The adorable patterned paper is also from Wild Rose Studio which explains why it's the perfect match for this stamp!


I colored Milton with Copics markers E31, E35, E37 and E39.  For the flower I used Y13, Y15 and Y35.  It's hard to tell in the pictures but the white part of the petals has a little bit of B0000 to accentuate the white and some Y000 for the shading at the base of the petals.  I also used my awesome Spica Glitter Pen in clear for the center of the flower as well as the centers of the flowers on the green patterned paper.  The yellow around the outside of Milton was done using the Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Mustard Seed.  I used the Divine Baker's Twine in lemon to add a little something extra to the card to help finish it off.

Here you can see where I cut out the flower and popped it up on some foam adhesive for added dimension.

Thanks for stopping by!  :)

This is just adorable! I love the way you used pop dots on the flower!

Thanks! Dana, your card definitely inspired my inking around the nestie shape! :)
