I am making lots of sunflowers and creating cards with this older Spellbinders die. It was one of the very first I bought when I started the die collection...2007? - whenever the Cuttlebug came out .
Texture and pattern play a good deal in creating this card. I used the sketch from CTS #61 and I am also entering in The Card Concept Challenge #2
The Sunflower is layered onto this text pattern paper and the PTI Thankyou die was used on woodgrain card stock...easy peasy cheerful!
Thanks for peeking!

The Card Concept Challenge # 2 Texture
Happy Friday!
I am at home today due to some icy roads in Austin today...yes! Some crafting has taken place.
It's kinda crazy when the temps are 25 F one day and and expected high of 70 tomorrow! I will take it, no complaints here :))
I created this card for The Card Concept Challenge #2. We are to create using texture and as you can clearly see, I was also inspired by the colours in the inspiration photo. I created the Spellbinder die cut sunflower with some linen textured card stock and I cut one each of the two sizes and layered onto each other. I used an outdoor fabric swatch to cut out the tweeded center and I also cut out a narrow ring from a woodgrain card stock scrap. The leaves are also cut with a die (My Favorite Things) out of shimmery green card stock. Everything was placed on this white woodgrain card stock that I bought at a local paper store. I am thinking that this card falls into the Clean and Layered category...or maybe the Clean and Simple?
Thanks for taking a peek today...I sure do appreciate you all!
