Sunflower card for the Stamping Inkspirations Bog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Stamping Inkspirations Blog Hop where we have a sketch to work with. I have used the pretty Celebrate Sunflower stamp set to make my card.

 

Colours used in this project are:

 

To recreate the sunflower card, you will need:

Thick Basic White card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛”
So Saffron card – 5¾” by 4”
Sun Prints dsp – 4½” by 3⅞”
Basic White card – 3” by 3”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside
Scrap Basic White & Soft Suede

 

I began by tearing the piece of Sun Prints dsp into 2 pieces keeping the edges jagged.

 

Taking the small pair of leaves, I stamped down the centre of the So Saffron panel with So Saffron ink to give a little interest to the background. The torn pieces of dsp were then adhered to the So Saffron layer leaving the stamped area on view,

 

The small sunflower was stamped in Old Olive ink onto scarp Basic White card along with 2 sets of the small leaves. These were coloured using the following Blends Alcohol Pens – So Saffron, Daffodil Delight, Old Olive & Soft Suede.

 

I die cut a stitched circle from the Stylish Shapes Dies and glued the coloured flower onto it. The spare leaves were then tucked around the flower. I added the circle to the card front on Dimensionals.

 

A couple of leafy sprigs were die cut form scrap Soft Suede card and these were tucked behind the circle.

 

The sentiment from the Ringed with Nature stamp set was stamped in Versamark ink onto scrap Soft Suede card. I then covered the stamped sentiment with White Embossing Powder and heat set it using my Heat Tool. I trimmed the cardstock down and flagged the ends with scissors before adding it to the card front.

A trio of Glossy Dots completed the card.

I hope you like it. Please continue around the hop to see what my crafty friends have done with the sketch.
