I used Magenta Madness (SU!), Orange Zest & Summer Sunrise (both PTI) cardstocks to cut out my sunflowers and placed them on small rectangles that I ink blended on using the matching inks.
My background looked too plain, so I added a panel that I embossed with Altenew's Organic Linen ef and a better press sentiment from SB's A Little Message Sentiments. A little WOS was added to the flower centers to finish off the card.
Lots of wonderful inspiration from Narelle and the talented DT, and you can check it all out right HERE. This challenge is open till Monday, June 22nd @ 3:00PM.
Also adding my card to the Just Us Girls Challenge where they have a beautiful and colorful mood board full of blooms...loved it!!
The JUGS challenge is open till Wednesday, June 24th @ 6:00PM.
