gorgeous cards..love the white in them!!
Just loved the flowers in reverse video.. Thanks for the inspiration and thanks more for sharing. Hugs.
Just wonderful, Dawn! Now I’m inspired to create some Flowers in Reverse on my own cards. Your timing is perfect! The white Annabelle Hydrangeas in my cottage perennial garden just bloomed this morning!!
Sending warmest hugs!💗
What a fresh and creative idea.. I’m inspired.. its so good to have you back! As an aside.. I love the way you coordinate your nail colour with your projects!! *:)
Hi Dawn! What I really liked in the video was how you shared your creative process. A couple of posts ago, you suggested making many flowers at once, so I stamped a virtual rose garden. I made more than one card at one sitting and I had such a good time! I love your ideas, as well as your beautiful designs. (I thought of you when making my cards. ) You are such a gem! I LOVE how your SUNFLOWER leaf turned out too but the dies haven’t been available since their release last fall, so I’ve been afraid to buy the gorgeous stamps. THANK YOU for a beautiful post! 🙂
This was so original and clean looking with all that white. One of my favorite MIM ever!
Love the cards!! Love how you made the background white. So simple but very elegant. Thanks for the great design!!
These are stunning! I love the idea of bringing the color out in the leaves. The white on white is soothing and easy on the eyes. Simply stunning!!!
This is so creative! Love the idea. Hope I get the time to play along.
Wolf whistle pretty!
Oh wow–one of my favorite MIMs, Dawn! Absolutely love those gorgeous leaves–especially the ones with a solid & a printed paper layer! Such a great challenge–can’t wait to try & create something using this idea!
This was a fun challenge! Love the idea and the opportunity to do a color challenge. Everyone’s projects look so lovely!
Dawn,
You are brilliant!!! Gorgeous ideas.
