Every year after the threat of frost is over, I plant flowers all around my house. Although it takes me a couple of days of weeding and planting, the outcome is worth it. One of my favorite flowers is the gerbera daisy (I have many ‘favorite’ flowers!) They’re beautiful and I love admiring its beauty. Here are my gerbera daisies from a couple of years ago. Since I love gerbera daisies, I decided to make my own daisies with my Big Shot and the daisies #2 die. Here are the daisies I made (cased from Shelley Bohan) to match my newly painted studio–don’t they look like the real thing? You can make them too! Grab your Big Shot and fill your vase with the colors that would complement your own decor. Bring the flowers inside – all year long! If you don’t have the daisies die, get it now before it retires on May 31.

It was so creative and beautifully done. In an earlier post I made a version of gerbera daisies with the retired daisy Big Shot die. You can see it here. […]
