I've broken out a set of stamps I've had for a few years and not used enough.
I used two different flower heads and three kinds of leaves and then coloured them with Promarkers.
I think it'll be good for a late summer birthday. Or perhaps a February birthday when all is gloomy.
I confess the oval is covering a square hole in the card. I cut it for a previous project but it was squint. I chose it to start stamping the sunflower on, not really thinking how I would finish it off. Anyway, no-one will know if you don't tell.
So I can skip over to Pixie's Snippets Playground as my card is all made from scraps. The base card was abandoned from a previous project too. It has 'Merry Christmas' stamped badly on it.
At Sunny Day Crafting the challenge is F for Flowers. My favourite theme.
Thanks for visiting and Enjoy The Day.
I used
Papermania Sunflower and leaf stamps
Paper smooches sentiment
JustRite oval die and dots stamp.
