Sunflower Birthday

Good Morning!

One more day off til I go back to work!  Sad to see vacation end, but I am on winter hours so work is lighter, more time to craft!  YAY!

This card will be entered into the Challenges at; Power Poppy, Grab A Map and Simon Says Wednesday, Use Pattern Paper.


This is the Page Map I chose.






I used the Power Poppy stamp sets; In Praise Of Sunflowers and Go Wild!  Image stamped in Raven Black ink and colored with Copic Markers.  If you look at the top of the sunflower panel you can see an itty bitty piece of Designer Paper sticking out, black and white striped on an angle.





MFT dies; Cross Stitched Rectangles, Open Bracket Border and Notched Border.
Swiss Dots Embossing Folder
Washi Tape
Adhesive Pearls

I love this Sketch and all of the layers you can add.  So much FUN!

Thanks for strolling by.

Enjoy~~

  3. Whoozer! This is a fun sketch, Map and I see that you took it to the next level. The great colors was the first thing that I noticed. What a Pop and a statement. Then you had a lot of fun with the layering of the papers and coloring that gorgeous sunflower. I love your little splashes of washi tape.
