Denise has the most wonderful 'flower bed' full of flower petals to delight us this week! I took advantage of her Mood Board #828 to make a card! After watching a video from Jen McGuire over a year ago using Spellbinders' Sunflower Serenade die. You can catch that video right HERE.
I took all the brightest colors of the blooms from Denise's mood board and armed with a sampler pack of Concord & 9th's cardstock, set about die-cutting a whole bunch - ready for the results?
I couldn't help but CASE one of Jen's cards after watching! She had the most wonderful color combo that I could never have imagined!
I found a sweet sentiment in my Concord & 9th Picked Posies sentiment set!
We've had a couple of rainy days that were perfect for time-spent in the studio - and I watched another video that MIGHT have been just as fun! More on that soon!

I couldn't feel more honored, Denise - thanks so very much!
Fabulous! I just broke out that die for Color Hues, and now you've inspired me to go far beyond a yellow sunflower. As always, thanks for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteI totally remember that 1st card Michele, and your newest and most colorful version is just as BEAUTIFUL!! After seeing Karen's card at CH and now yours, something's telling me I should pull out my sunflower die too! Sweet, sweet card my friend...LOVE it!! Hugs. :0)
