Sunflower congratulations card
How cheerful is this sunflower set against a blue sky? This is one of my favorite color combinations – yellow and navy!
This card was easy to make and involves stamping, masking and coloring…easy, easy! I partially stamped the image of the sunflower onto a 3″ x 3″ Post It Note and fussy cut around this partial image. The sunflower mask was used to cover the stamped sunflower images so that leaves could be stamped to give the appearance that the leaves are sitting partially under the sunflowers. Super easy technique that provides great results!
Balmy Blue Stampin’ Blends were used to color in a sky around the sunflowers. The edges of the Balmy Blue were purposefully left jagged to provide a more artistic-style frame. The light shade of blue nicely sets off the sunflowers. The card sits on a Daffodil Delight card base with a Night of Navy mat. Black twine and brass butterflies adorn the card front. While I used a congratulations greeting on this card, it would also make a great birthday or thinking of you card!
