I die cut the trio of daisies from scrap Basic White card and cut the flowers apart using sharp scissors. I die cut the base layer of the daisy from Pebbled Path card and the detailed flower from scrap Basic White card.

A Blending Brush was used to add Moody Mauve ink to the centre of both white flower layers and to the flower centre. A Dimensional behind the flower centre held the two delicate flower layers together and a little liquid glue added them to the Pebbled Path layer. The whole piece was added to the card front. The leaves were tucked in behind the flower.
