A sunflower card

 

Hi There! Today I thought I would show you how I made this single layer card.

I began by using the 4" Sunflower easy frame inkable, blending  distress oxide ink around it. 

Next I popped the innie inkable in and blended a little vintage photo distress oxide ink through the petals.

I then stamped the Doodle Art mandala in the centre using brown versafine clair ink.

I coloured the mandala with ecoline pens, but then I felt the petals weren't quite prominent enough... 

so I took a brown fine liner and outlined the petals in the style of Bev.

I placed the innie over the sunflower and added twisted citron distress ink through the fernando big one inkable.

I stamped a small border stamp (this one is from the regular Doodle Art sunflower set) and added some liquid pearls to the mandala and the border.

finally I added a sentiment from the small words set.

Here is my finished card.

Crafting is minimal for me at the moment, but the craft room renovations are progressing nicely. Here are a few photos from this week. 

3 days for the plaster to dry out then the painting can begin. I will be doing a little live for Bee Crafty on Wednesday evening at 8pm on their facebook page if you fancy joining me.

Thanks for looking!
