Avis found a gorgeous bouquet of flowers as inspiration for the Altenew Inspiration Challenge March 2025 at her grocery store - I sure hope she put it right into her cart! Wouldn't this be just what the doctor ordered to get us over the finish line of Winter...
Armed with two of Altenew's Paint a Flower sets and a handful of
Copic alcohol markers, I set about recreating that bouquet.
Altenew: Paint-a-Flower: Sunflower and their Tulips fit together
very nicely with a little snip of my scissors!
It's been a while since I used Altenew's Apothecary Label dies for my sentiment.
It was a perfect fit for this one from that Sunflower set.
Now, if you look veeeerrrry closely - you might catch sight
of that Geo Steps embossing folder used to add texture to my black panel.
Oh well. The recipient won't have that trouble.
Hope you've gotten to 'hump day' unscathed - momma NEVER said there'd be days like these.

The bouquet is beautiful and you did an amazing job of recreating it on your card! Love how those colors pop against the black. You're a gifted flower arranger!
It's beautiful and I love the black background. Such lovely contrast. I don't want to speak too soon, but the sun is still shining here. I am loving it xx
You've created a gorgeous bouquet, Michele! Sunflowers are so happy and a great way to brighten up a dreary winter day!
I like the drama the black background adds to your lovely spring bouquet!
Beautiful, and what a feat to combine your two sets into a bouquet that definitely resembles the inspiration! While your embossing is trying to hide, I did peek at the bottom of your card
You've captured the inspiration photo perfectly, from the dark background to those gorgeous blooms! A wowzer of a card!
Such a beautiful and hopeful bouquet, Michele!
Very pretty Michele! The colors of the flowers are striking against the black. Simply gorgeous!
As Jaycee would say, "Perfect Pairings"., Michele. Love your Copic coloring on these sunny flowers.
Beautiful card design!
