I used a circle mask and ink blended Summer Sunrise & Terracotta Tile inks (PTI). I left the mask in place and stamped the Blooming Sunflower in black ink over the mask. I trimmed it down with a Master Layout #2 die (Gina K) and then ran it through with my Subtle ef (SU!).
The DT has some awesome inspiration for you using the rust and yellow color pairing, so check it all out right HERE and then play along with us...we'd love to see YOU in the gallery! This challenge is open till Tuesday, Oct. 14th @ 9:00AM.
Thanks for stopping by today ... I love it when you do!

This is so pretty Marcia. Love the masked circle and lovely ink blending. Your sunflower looks perfect stamped in the center. Fabulous card.
Marcia, your spotlight ink blending/stamping is glorious! I love the colors you've chosen and you've used them beautifully
You can't go wrong with a good sunflower, Marcia and this one is pretty! Love those marvelous sunset colors you've given it. This is a lovely sympathy card.
Oh, how absolutely beautiful this is, Marcia! I love the CAS card design with the circle image and curved sentiment. The blended ink colors are my favorites this time of year. That really is a lovely, detailed sunflower stamp, too. I say enjoy them if you've got them!
This is as pretty as can be! Love the direction you went with these colors as you are showing our followers, many ideas are possible. It is just perfect!
Marcia, with pretty sunflowers like this how could anyone grow tired of them? Not me! Beautifully done, my friend - just the right bit of brightness for someone who may be needing it.
I'm in!! Let me grab my inks!

This background glows, Marcia, and works beautifully with the sunflower! I love the embossing too and the narrow black frames brings it all together!
This is beautiful Marcia! I love the ink blended circle with the stamped flowers just inside the circle. I also like how you curved the sentiment to wrap along the circles edge. The added texture is a bonus. So nice to have these kinds of cards on hand when the time comes. This turned out beautifully.
Your masked blending forms the ideal background for the fab sunflower, the hint of black in the mount just picks up the stamping perfectly. Fab card. :)
You blended that circle beautifully, Marcia, and the sunflower is lovely stamped inside. The curved sentiment and subtle embossing add the perfect final touches to an amazing card.
Marcia, you've created a lovely card for someone who needs their spirits lifted. Your ink blending and sunflower pairing: beautiful. Thank you for choosing such a pretty colour combination; I love it!

Rust and yellow were inspired choices for this challenge, Marcia, and your card is so beautiful! Your gorgeous ink blending on the textured paper makes for a wonderful card!
Sunflowers in the fall are a perfect choice. They are a reminder that summer was just here and that the fall shades are coming. We don't have any sunflowers left here but this morning there is so much orange and yellow and leaves on the ground, it's telling me that fall is here. Beautiful card, my friend.
Using the circle mask for your image and inking really sets the focus on it Marcia! A beautiful CAS design so lovely for a sympathy card. Julia xx
Ohhh! This is so striking Marcia! I need to remember this design when I don't feel like coloring my florals. As much as I struggled with this one I do love your color choice!
What a beautiful card and lovely design, Marcia! I agree with Jules, it's a great way to use a floral without coloring. The masked blend of inks is gorgeous and the simplicity of it is perfect for a sympathy card. Thank you for a wonderful color comb, it was wonderful to play with!
